Summary:
The House Committee on Land, Agriculture and Rural Affairs considered several measures related to foreign ownership of land, historic preservation administration, and limits on the Attorney General’s nuisance authority. HCM 2005, urging Congress to study restrictions on property ownership by foreign governments operating under communism or authoritarianism, was amended unsuccessfully and then passed on a 5-3 do-pass recommendation. HB 2171, which would prohibit sales or leases of Arizona real property to persons acting on behalf of China, Russia, Iran, or North Korea and assign enforcement duties to state and county officials, also passed 5-3. HB 2790, which would restructure the State Historic Preservation Office’s reporting and budget process and provide a $1 million appropriation, drew testimony from Arizona State Parks and Trails and the Arizona Preservation Foundation; supporters said it would improve autonomy and efficiency, while critics warned it could create administrative conflicts and affect federal funding. It passed 5-3 after discussion of possible clarifying amendments.
The committee then took up three similar bills aimed at curbing the Attorney General’s use of public nuisance actions. HB 2168 would require county board of supervisors approval before the AG could bring such an action in Superior Court; supporters argued it would add local control and protect rural industries, while opponents said it would block needed enforcement and give local officials veto power over statewide concerns. HB 2169 would make the AG liable for defamation per se if a nuisance action is filed without a reasonable basis and publicized; supporters framed it as accountability, while opponents said it would chill enforcement and transparency. HB 2167 would impose damages, attorney fees, lost profits, and treble penalties on the AG for unsuccessful nuisance actions; supporters said it would deter overreach, while opponents said it would intimidate the office and shield powerful corporations. All three bills passed on 5-3 do-pass votes.

Summary:
The Senate Health and Social Services Committee met with a quorum, approved the minutes from the prior two meetings, and briefly acknowledged the tragedy at Christiana Care before moving to legislation. The committee heard House Bill 385, which creates a statewide nurse preceptor grant program to expand clinical training placements for nursing students; testimony from nursing organizations, health care associations, and educators emphasized workforce shortages, the need for preceptor stipends and training, and the bill’s potential to help students complete programs and remain in Delaware. Members asked about eligibility and reporting, and several senators asked to be added as co-sponsors. Public comment was uniformly supportive, and the bill was advanced out of committee.
The committee then considered House Bill 424, which repeals Delaware’s Autism Surveillance and Registration Program and requires DHSS to expunge protected health information collected through the registry. The sponsor and DHSS said the registry is no longer used for research or policy development and that repeal would reduce outdated reporting burdens; Autism Delaware, the Delaware Health Care Association, and the State Council for Persons with Disabilities support the change. A committee member raised the question of whether families would be notified before records are expunged, and DHSS said that process was not yet clear and would need further verification. Members discussed the issue, and the bill also moved forward.
House Bill 419 was next, making children in foster care automatically eligible for the Purchase of Care child care subsidy and extending the same treatment to certain kinship and safety-plan placements through House Amendment 1. The Children’s Department and advocacy groups said the bill would provide immediate stability for children and caregivers, reduce delays from applications and income verification, and support working foster and kinship families. The committee also heard House Bill 359, which would allow cremation as an option for unclaimed and indigent remains when there is no family objection or next of kin cannot be found, addressing a shortage of burial plots and lowering costs; funeral industry testimony focused on preserving next-of-kin rights. Finally, the committee heard House Bill 475, creating a Delaware Nursing Advancement Fund financed by a $10 surcharge on nursing licenses and disciplinary fines to support workforce data collection and analysis through a nonprofit partner, and House Bill 165, authorizing physician associates, occupational therapists, and APRNs to perform dry needling under training and practice standards set by the Board of Medical Licensure and Discipline. All of the bills received supportive testimony, several members added their names as co-sponsors, and the committee adjourned after moving through the agenda.

Forging the Future: Kentucky's National Leadership in Metals Manufacturing 00:01:33
Improvements to Kentucky’s Incentive Programs 00:52:05, 958, all
Summary:
The committee met for its third interim meeting, approved the prior meeting minutes, and heard a presentation from the Metals Innovation Initiative (MI2) on Kentucky’s metals industry. Speakers described metals manufacturing and recycling as a major economic backbone for the Commonwealth, including steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and copper operations, with broad impacts across production, fabrication, supply chains, and related businesses. They emphasized that the industry supports high-paying jobs, significant capital investment in Kentucky, and is aligned with broader efforts to expand U.S. manufacturing.
A central theme was workforce development. MI2 leaders said the industry faces a persistent talent gap and that current education programs do not always produce the skills needed for modern metals jobs. They argued for stronger exposure and awareness, more direct industry involvement, and a dedicated metals career pathway through high schools, area technology centers, career and technical centers, and KCTCS. They also described pilot efforts in Logan, Warren, and Carroll counties that would introduce students to metals careers in middle school, move them into credits and pathways in high school, and connect them to internships, apprenticeships, and postsecondary training.
Recycling and supply-chain security were the other major topics. Testimony stressed that recycled inputs are far cheaper than raw ore extraction and that recycling is increasingly important to competitiveness, environmental performance, and keeping materials from leaving the U.S. Speakers also raised concerns about China’s large steel and aluminum capacity and said unfair trade and global market manipulation make it harder for Kentucky producers to compete. Committee members and presenters framed MI2 as a collaborative effort among industry, state government, and academia to strengthen workforce pipelines, recycling, and long-term industry growth. No votes or formal actions were taken beyond approving the minutes.
