After years of advocacy, a bill (SB 4) to establish the Delaware State Office of Inspector General (OIG) was passed and signed into law. The OIG will stop and deter fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement at Delaware state agencies. Additionally, DelCOG's advocacy helped pass critical legislation, for example HB 6 and HB 9, which grants the State Auditor subpoena powers and strengthens "double-dipping" laws in the State of Delaware. DelCOG campaigned against unnecessary multimillion-dollar renovations to Legislative Hall, including stopping construction of an underground tunnel. DelCOG supported efforts to address environmental and health concerns, such as demanding transparency on lead in school drinking water and ensuring public input for a proposed hyperscale data center in Delaware's Coastal Zone. DelCOG has consistently monitored the developments of the federal Corporate Transparency Act to address transparency of corporate and LLC beneficial ownership. DelCOG's outreach includes public access at monthly board meetings and sponsoring special public events, such as Sunshine Week and its Annual Meeting. DelCOG's voice works to ensure that our government works in the best interests of all Delawareans. 0 1142 1142 John Kowalko III President 10 0 0 0 Al Jackson Vice President 5 0 0 0 Nick Wasileski Secretary 5 0 0 0 Anita Rush Treasurer 3 0 0 0 John Flaherty Board Member 5 0 0 0 Coralie Pryde Board Member 3 0 0 0 Keith Steck Board Member 5 0 0 0 Joe Edelen Board Member 3.00 0 0 0 Bill Shields Board Member 3.00 0 0 0 X 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 DE Anita Rush 1012 Kent Road Wilmington DE 19807 3026552175 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 1425 3525 3370 5355 4095 17770 0 285 0 370 0 655 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1425 3810 3370 5725 4095 18425 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 18425 0 0 11 15 13 39 0 0 0 0 0 0 11 15 13 39 0 0 0 0 0 0 1425 3810 3381 5740 4108 18464 0.99789 0.99831 0.00211 0.00169 X Schedule A, Part III, Line 12 The organization had no sources of other income in Schedule A, Part III, Line 12. 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Award frames expense $152.00; League of Women Voters League Day expense $400.00; Constant Contact expense $100.80; National Freedom of Information Dues $250.00; Zoom Fee $159.90; Elementor Website Fee; $79.00 Form 990-EZ, Part V, Line 34 Changes to the Organization Bylaws, revised and amended on October 14, 2025, are as follows: Article III, 3.03, deleted the following, and 3) the members of the Advisory Board (when convened) which is to consist of those appointed to serve. 3.05 changed to read, Such committees may include but are not limited to: Legislation, Membership, Programs/Education, Publicity. 3.11, added the phrase, by a two-thirds majority vote of the Board.
