A Call to Action From the CEO of the Direct Selling Association

by Press Release • June 20, 2025 • 0 Comments

OPINION | By Dave Grimaldi, CEO, Direct Selling Association
Delaware’s Direct Sellers Deserve Better
Delaware House Bill 162 unsurprisingly passed the House last week—but the real fight lies ahead in the Senate. As it moves forward, it’s vital that lawmakers hear directly from those who stand to lose the most: Delaware’s direct sellers.
That’s why I’m calling on every direct selling company with a presence in the state to act now: identify and prepare your Delaware-based sellers. We need their voices—in Dover, in their communities, and in their legislators’ inboxes.
Every company can engage:

Send the campaign link—WeAreDirectSelling.com/Delaware—to your Delaware-based field members so they can send letters to state senators with just one click. Just as importantly, encourage them to involve their families, neighbors, business contacts, and local organizations. This multiplier effect is everything.
Internally gather and prepare data on your Delaware-based distributors so that, when a coordinated in-person day of action is announced, your company is ready to support participation and ensure a strong presence at Legislative Hall.
Nominate a top Delaware distributor to serve as a visible voice in this fight. These individuals can input their information directly on the campaign site and may be called upon for future testimony, outreach, or events.

Any of these actions will help
