Press Release

DOVER – In response to the sentencing and resignation of the Delaware State Auditor, House Majority Leader Valerie Longhurst issued the following statement:

“Today’s sentencing of the State Auditor brings to a close an unprecedented and sad chapter in Delaware history. For months, many have called on the Auditor to take a leave of absence, and then to resign from office once she was found guilty of violating the public trust. With the State Auditor’s resignation today, we can begin to restore public confidence in this office and improve trust and stability among its employees.”
