Citizens for a Pro-Business Delaware Declares Victory in Fight to Put First Black Justice on Delaware's Supreme Court

DOVER, Del., Oct. 24, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Following Delaware Governor Carney's nomination of current Court of Chancery Vice Chancellor Tamika Montgomery-Reeves to the Delaware Supreme Court, Citizens for a Pro-Business Delaware Campaign Manager Chris Coffey has released the following statement:

"Today's announcement is a big step forward for progress in Delaware. For years the state's Supreme Court has lagged behind, propping up a status quo that was inequitable for too many Delawareans. By nominating the state's first African American justice to serve on the Supreme Court, Governor Carney has heeded the call of thousands of our members for more diversity in Delaware's Justice System.
