Terrell Williams

Infrastructure / Transportation Terrell wants to make the 9th District a commuter-friendly area by investing in public transportation in a holistic and realistic manner. He believes Delaware can benefit from a light rail system that connects the state’s transportation system with other regional transportation systems, which will allow all Delawareans to freely travel around our state, with minimal impact on our environment. Healthcare Terrell believes in increasing access to health care, which includes a buy in option for Medicaid. He wants co-pays to stop being a barrier to receiving health care, especially when it comes to mental health care. Terrell supports the government investing more in health care with programs like a 45-day inpatient treatment option for people with substance abuse issues and bringing back government-run facilities for institutionalization. Education Terrell supports free speech and free expression in the classroom. He maintains that government should not censor educational curriculum and that it should accurately recite history. Terrell believes that we make schools more safe and secure not by relying on policing, but by providing mental health and community resources to students and families. Environment / Energy Terrell is a big proponent of solar energy, wind turbines, electric cars and other innovative forms of clean energy to help Delaware become carbon-neutral. Criminal Justice / Public Safety In particular, Terrell wants to focus on supporting non-violent offenders with more opportunities for restorative justice and creating pathways for them to successfully reintegrate into society. He sees how our current criminal justice system puts profit above healing people and we need to implement reform to fix this systemic issue.
