Summary:
The meeting of the agricultural committee focused on significant concerns regarding the current state of America's rural economy, highlighting the need for a strong five-year farm bill to address the challenges faced by farmers, particularly young and beginning farmers. Key testimony was given by multiple stakeholders including agricultural leaders and young farmers, emphasizing issues related to crop insurance, access to credit, and the adverse impact of recent USDA funding freezes. Various members discussed the necessity of risk management tools that farmers rely on to secure financing, which is crucial for sustaining agricultural operations and supporting rural communities. The importance of timely legislative action was underscored, as many farmers reported struggles in the current economic climate, raising urgency for reforms within the Farm Bill framework.

Summary:
The meeting was an orientation for the Resources, Recreation and Development Committee, led by Chair Bob Harb. He reviewed committee procedures, including pink cards for witnesses, blue sheets for counts, use of drawers in the committee room, scheduling practices, and how bills would be posted and distributed. Members briefly introduced themselves and explained why they wanted to serve on the committee, with several citing interests in conservation, water quality, outdoor recreation, land use, and related local issues.
The committee then opened a hearing on HB 1113, relative to OHRV operation on certain highways within the town of Windsor. Representative Ré Colcombe, the sponsor, explained that the bill would allow local OHV/UTV access across a short section of state road in Windsor so residents on divided portions of town could travel legally between areas. He said the town selectmen were already allowing OHRV use on town roads, the route was paved, traffic impacts were expected to be minimal, and local police had no objections. He also said the town would hold public hearings and notify abutters as required, and that if the select board ultimately opposed the proposal he would recommend killing the bill.
Members asked about the legal authority for the change, speed limits, traffic volume, winter maintenance, and whether the Department of Transportation or select board had to approve the route. Colcombe said the town must hold a public hearing and that the change would need to be incorporated into RSA 258:10, section 4. He said the road is maintained by the town in winter and by the state in summer. An opponent, Anne Davis, testified that she opposed the bill, saying ATV use should be treated as a tool for forest management rather than recreation, that law enforcement capacity in Windsor was a concern, and that she believed affected residents should be fully notified before any approval. No vote or final action was taken in the portion provided.

- hard-earned wages instead of charging them for the cost of their incarceration ensures that we are not balancing
Committee:
House Corrections
Summary:
The House Corrections Committee met and considered Senate Bill 309 with Senate Amendment 1, which would end the Department of Corrections’ practice of deducting room-and-board charges from wages earned by incarcerated people. Supporters said the bill would help people in work release and other correctional programs keep more of their earnings for reentry needs, while still allowing deductions for child support, restitution, court costs, fines, and other court-ordered obligations. The sponsor also argued the current collection process costs the state more to administer than it brings in, citing roughly $40,000 in annual revenue versus about $137,000 in administrative costs.
A Department of Correction witness clarified that the bill applies to level four work release only, affecting about 300 people, and would not change level five populations or Delaware Correctional Industries programming. He also said the funds are held in a non-interest-bearing account and then sent to the general fund. Public commenters, including a private citizen, the ACLU of Delaware, and the Tide Shift Justice Project, strongly supported the bill and argued that incarceration costs should be borne by the state rather than deducted from already low wages.
After discussion, a motion was made to release the bill from committee and a roll-call vote was taken. The vote appeared to have enough support among members present, but because fewer than five members were present, the committee could not fully release the bill and instead would circulate it for additional signatures. The committee then adjourned.

- hope families want the ability to produce a basic food staple at home, and this version reflects a balanced
Summary:
The Judiciary and Rules Committee met to approve the February 9, 2026 minutes, which passed by voice vote. The committee then considered several RSs for print only, noting this was not a full hearing and that some measures would later go to other committees. Senator Tammy Nichols presented RS 33485, a proposal to establish a statewide minimum standard allowing residents of single-family homes to keep up to four hens for household egg production, with incidental sales allowed under existing food safety and cottage food laws. She said the bill was narrowly tailored, preserved local and HOA nuisance-related authority, and was a refined version of a similar measure that passed the Senate last year but stalled in the House. The committee voted to send RS 33485 to print after a brief exchange about the “chicken or egg” question.
Senator Phil Hart presented RS 32877C1, which would encourage judges to finish their terms by limiting post-retirement service as senior judges for those who retire early, while exempting judges forced into retirement by incapacity. He said the bill is intended to reduce early retirements that lead to gubernatorial appointments and incumbent advantages. Senator Ruchti opposed the motion to print, saying he generally supports printing RSs but was concerned about repeated changes affecting the judiciary and warned that such changes could discourage qualified attorneys from becoming judges. Despite that objection, the committee voted to send the measure to print.
The committee then approved in one block four additional RSs: RS 32871C1 to the Local Government and Tax Committee, RS 332259 and RS 33526 to the Health and Welfare Committee, and RS 33508, a rules resolution related to local government tax. All motions passed by voice vote, and the meeting adjourned.
