The Flowers Framework seeks to strengthen Delaware’s financial future by offering a series of proposals aimed at creating jobs, promoting economic growth and saving taxpayer funds by revamping the state’s Treasurer’s Office.

While the Flowers Framework contains 18 specific ideas to assist Delaware in competing in today’s 21st century global economy, it emphasizes four core themes: fiscal responsibility, economic growth and stimulating businesses, planning and forecasting and revamping our financial agencies.  The Flowers campaign released the framework on the anniversary of the inauguration of President Thomas Jefferson (March 4, 1801), since the framework is based upon many key concepts and principles offered by Jefferson, and Alexander Hamilton. Many of the ideas set forth in the framework are based upon the polices promoted by former President Bill Clinton during his administration – which led our nation to years of prosperity.
