Democratic Gov. Matt Meyer of Delaware has been making headlines for rubbing elbows with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, whose authorized crew helped Meyer write a invoice that may defend the billionaire class.

Extra strikingly, of the 12 legislation corporations Meyer consulted with to draft the invoice, some have shut ties to President Donald Trump’s closest allies. 

One legislation agency that was a part of the drafting technique of the invoice was Richards, Layton & Finger, which has represented Elon Musk and Tesla. And one other legal professional concerned within the creation of the invoice is a member of a legislation agency that’s actively representing Zuckerberg in an ongoing shareholder case.

Whereas many have considered Meyer’s cooperation with MAGA elite a betrayal to Democrats, Meyer instructed Day by day Kos that claims of his relationship with billionaires are nothing greater than a smear marketing campaign. 

“[Opponents of the bill] said I had some sort of relationship with billionaires. That I sat in some back room and cooked this whole thing up, which anybody that does a little bit of research will see that’s absolutely false,” he instructed Day by day Kos.

CNBC obtained public data displaying that Meyers was in a gathering on Feb. 1 with a number of legislation corporations, together with these linked to Musk and Zuckerberg, and the Delaware legislature.  


Billionaires Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk are seen at President Donald Trump’s inauguration.

The day after, Meyers and Secretary of State Charuni Patibanda-Sanchez, met with Meta executives, together with Company Secretary Kate Kelly and Senior Nationwide Director of State and Native Coverage Dan Sachs.

In the meantime, Meyer has emphasised that the legislation corporations symbolize “tens of thousands of clients,” not simply billionaires like Musk and Zuckerberg. 

“With respect to Senate Bill 21, my job is to make sure we’re continuing to provide law and a court system that’s clear, that’s fair, and that’s predictable for business disputes around the world,” Meyer instructed Day by day Kos.

Delaware has been dwelling to many main U.S. companies on account of its pleasant tax breaks to huge enterprise, but it surely’s been shedding a few of its largest batters in recent times, together with Musk in 2021.

“Never incorporate your company in the state of Delaware,” Musk wrote on X in January 2024. 

Equally, Trump’s firm Trump Media—which hosts his social media platform Fact Social and his up-and-coming monetary service platform Fact.Fi—will maintain a shareholder vote in April to reincorporate in Florida. And earlier this yr, Meta and DropBox have additionally hinted at reincorporating elsewhere. 

However Delaware’s economic system depends on its companies.

“We have a million Delawareans who rely on the $2.2 billion that the corporation franchise brings into the state,” Democratic State Rep. Krista Griffith instructed lawmakers on March 25. “What appears everlasting can simply vanish.”

The $2.2 billion, which helps fund the state’s well being care and schooling, is one thing Delaware can’t afford to lose.

Echoing the same sentiment, Katie Gillis, the manager officer of the Dwelling Builders Affiliation of Delaware, testified in assist of the invoice. 

“Delaware’s infrastructure networks are already lagging, and the state can’t afford to have something danger funding for wanted enhancements [that] assist present Delaware residents and the individuals who want to transfer right here,” she stated.

And companies a lot smaller than Meta have additionally rallied in assist of the invoice, talking on the dire want for its funding in Delaware’s colleges, hospitals, and different underfunded areas. 

For Meyer, this isn’t a matter of “left or right” or being in ranks with billionaires. 

“That doesn’t make sense. I just proposed the most progressive tax structure, probably in the history of the state,” he instructed Day by day Kos. 

However, Meyer stated, whereas he needs companies to remain in Delaware, he additionally needs to carry the rich accountable, making them “pay their fair share.”
