The Senator i am most like is Tom Carper, Tom agrees with me on all the major issues states are dealing with. He believes in perserving the enviorment but also keeping up the economy. Tom Carper thinks alot like me when making decissions. when he has to spend money he tries to help the enviorment, he spent 7.8million to help perserve the enviorment our state and he always makes sure that the earth is a priority in decissions. Tom Carper also belives ion goverment funded health care as do i, we believe everyone has the right to health care and should be able to see a doctor as they need to. Finally me and Tom agree that high goverment taxes hurt the economy, we belive that when the goverment over taxes it hurts buisnesses because when they pay more taxes they have less money to spend on things they need. Me and Tom Carper think alot alike which is why he is my favorite senator from Delaware.

Delaware has a great goverment and has many laws that support the people, and the vastly growing educational system and economy helps everyone living in the state. Delaware is the first state and for the people living here the best state.
