They can strengthen the perspectives of decision makers by supplying factual and anecdotal evidence. ### House Committee To submit a written remark to a House Committee, email: [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) Specify: 1) Committee Title 2) Date of the Committee Meeting, and 3) Bill Number you are commenting on Submissions are accepted in advance of the hearing and up to 24 hours after its completion. Comments received after a hearing will be memorialized into the public record. ### Senate Commitee The process for submitting written comments to a Senate Committee differs. 1) Locate the Committee Hearing on the Legislature’s [legis.delaware.gov](https://legis.delaware.gov) website, 2) Look under the “Meeting Info” header, and 3) Under “Downloads” there will be a PDF for the meeting notice. The document will explain which staffer to send public comment to. If for some reason there is no information, please contact the Chair of the Committee. Public comment will be accepted before the committee meeting and up to 24 hours after its adjournment. Comments received will be considered a part of the official record.
