Strong women built Delaware, and they’re leading it forward.

We were honored to celebrate four trailblazers at the Delaware Women’s Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony: Charlotte King, Charlotte Miller Lacy, Valerie Biden Owens, and Claire DeMatteis.

Each of these women has shaped our state through courage, leadership, and service. Their stories remind us why protecting women’s rights and expanding opportunity must always be part of our work, because when women thrive, Delaware thrives.

✨ Every family deserves care close to home.

I joined ChristianaCare to break ground on a project that will transform healthcare for Middletown families.

For too long, residents had to travel outside town to see a doctor or get the care they need. This new hospital will change that by bringing expert doctors, nurses, and state-of-the-art treatment closer to home.

As a ChristianaCare physician and as Delaware’s First Lady, I couldn’t be prouder to see this vision taking shape. Healthcare access is about dignity, security, and peace of mind, and today is a big step toward all three. 💙

I hope you’ll join me in wishing my husband, Governor Matt Meyer, a very Happy Birthday. 💙🎉🥳Matt wears a lot of hats: da...

I hope you’ll join me in wishing my husband, Governor Matt Meyer, a very Happy Birthday. 💙🎉🥳

Matt wears a lot of hats: dad, husband, teacher, governor, and somehow gives his all to every one of them. He leads with integrity and heart, and I couldn’t be prouder.

Happy I get to share all the days and nights (and everything in between) with you on this adventure we call life.

We’re so proud of Delaware today: running, walking, and cheering to support the Friends of the Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research Institute. 💙

Because of this community, millions have been raised to help patients and families across our state and beyond. When Delawareans come together, we make an impact that stretches far beyond our borders.

We were proud to lace up and join the run this morning, standing shoulder to shoulder with so many who came out to support this important cause. 🏃‍♀️🏃

Thank you to ChristianaCare and the Helen F. Graham team for the incredible care and groundbreaking research they deliver every single day. And thank you to Laura Mackler for the kind invitation to be part of this special day.

Being curious and asking questions is important. But it’s just as important to share information responsibly.

The science is clear: taking Tylenol during pregnancy does not cause autism. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists has confirmed this medicine is safe for expectant parents to use.

As both First Lady and a physician, I know how important it is for families to have clear, reliable guidance.

As we welcome Rosh Hashanah, I want to wish a sweet and joyful New Year to everyone in Delaware who is celebrating. May this season of reflection and renewal bring health, happiness, and peace to you and your families.

May you be inscribed for a good year. 🍎🍯

When First Spouses from across the country, and party lines, come together with one voice, it’s because the stakes are too high to stay silent. I was proud to join them in signing a letter demanding an end to the gun violence that is tearing families apart and stealing futures.

My heart breaks for the lives lost to senseless violence – from leaders and loved ones taken too soon, to the children in our schools who should be safe but are not. Each tragedy deepens the wound that gun violence carves into our families and our communities.

As an emergency room doctor, I have held the hands of victims, spoken to grieving parents, and seen up close the devastation left behind. I carry those stories with me every day, and they fuel my resolve to act.

That is why our administration is holding Gun Violence Listening Sessions across the state. These conversations are not about politics – they are about hearing directly from Delawareans, working together, and demanding change.

Wilmington will host one of the sessions on September 16th, and we welcome every voice.

We cannot allow this violence to define who we are. Delaware is strong, resilient, and filled with people who care deeply for one another.

We can and will stop the cycle.

As an ER doctor, I spend every day with families praying with all their hearts that their loved ones will pull through whatever brought them into our emergency room.

We share those prayers. But we also have to act.

Our job is to do everything in our power to save every life in front of us. And that’s exactly the approach we need when facing the number one cause of death for children in this country: gun violence.

No doctor would greet a gunshot victim by simply holding their hand and hoping prayer alone would be enough. Yet too often, that’s what we do as a society - wringing our hands, waiting, praying that something will change before another child is carried into an ER.

The truth is the time to protect our children is before they ever reach our operating tables.

✨ Happy Women’s Equality Day, Delaware! ✨

Governor Matt Meyer signed a new proclamation declaring August 26th as Women’s Equality Day in Delaware – a celebration of progress and a recommitment to the work ahead.

As an ER doctor, I know equality isn’t abstract. It’s the difference between a small issue solved or a crisis that never should’ve happened.

That’s why we’re fighting every day to make equality real in our laws, clinics, workplaces, and homes.

Let’s keep equality moving forward: patient by patient, classroom by classroom, vote by vote.

Grateful to stand alongside Lieutenant Governor Kyle Evans Gay, Senator Nicole Poore, Angela Lane of New Castle County Chapter, Jack and Jill of America, Inc., Rep. Melanie Ross Levin & Delaware Department of Human Resources Secretary Yvonne Gordon. Thank you for your leadership!

Women’s Equality Day is both a celebration and a commitment.

In the ER, I see how equality shows up in the moments that matter most: getting time off for a screening, finding childcare, getting fast answers about a family history.

With Governor Matt Meyer’s statewide proclamation and a focus on patient-centered genetic counseling, we’re working to reduce delays and help families get the right tests and guidance sooner.

Equality becomes real when it shows up in our care, our workplaces, and our homes. Person by person, choice by choice.
