Meet Your Representative
Who is Larry?
Larry Lambert is a community leader and a proud lifelong resident of Claymont. His record of service has been recognized by Senator Joe Biden, in front of the US Congress, on the Oprah Winfrey show, and in a News Journal feature detailing his volunteer work in the 7th District.
In a nine-year span of his youth, Larry lost his big brother and both of his parents. At 20, he took on the responsibility of raising his little sister who was a sophomore at Brandywine High School. It was difficult paying all of the bills, raising a teenager, and being the first Lambert to graduate from college. Larry persevered, to prove to his sister that “no matter what we go through, we never give up!”
Larry served as an art teacher for 8 years, and now has been employed in corporate banking for the last 9 years. Larry has actively worked to build bridges between Delaware’s corporate and nonprofit sectors and to bring resources into our communities such as hot meals, books, mentors, murals, financial literacy workshops, and an environmental justice conference.
Why I’m Running
I am running for re-election as your State Representative because I am passionate about helping my neighbors and our hometown thrive. My leadership in our community, and the relationships I have developed with local political, economic, and educational leaders, will help our neighborhoods and families prosper.
My dad was a proud union member who worked at Delmarva Power for 27 years. He instilled in me blue-collar values of loyalty, justice, and looking out for your fellow man. As your State Representative, I will continue to fight for all workers by supporting a “Hire Delaware First” policy for publicly funded ventures like large north Claymont construction projects.
I am not running for office, I’m running for you! Every year, our workloads and hours increase, but our wages do not. Now is the time to re-elect your neighbor who is dedicated to improving your quality of life. You need leadership you know, leadership you can trust, and leadership that listens. A vote for me represents a vote for all of us!

House Substitute 1 for House Bill 349
This Act allows a landlord to offer the tenant an option to pay a recurring fee in lieu of a security deposit. This option enables tenants who cannot afford a security deposit to find a rental. This Act requires landlords choosing to provide the option to one tenant in a multiunit property to provide the option to all new tenants in that property. This Act also establishes requirements for the landlord offering a tenant the option to pay a fee in lieu of a security deposit including the requirement to notify the tenant of their option to terminate the agreement to pay the recurring fee at any time and to pay a security deposit instead. This Act makes it clear that electing to pay the recurring fee does not eliminate, release, or limit the tenant’s liability for damages under the lease. The recurring fee must be of equivalent amount and payable at the time each rent payment is due. This Act also clarifies the rights and responsibilities of a third-party who compensates a landlord for damages or unpaid indebtedness pursuant to the lease. House Substitute No. 1 for House Bill No. 349 differs from House Bill No. 349 by providing more detailed notification requirements for a landlord offering a fee in lieu of a security deposit and requiring landlords to use fees collected in lieu of a security deposit be utilized by the landlord to purchase coverage for landlord’s losses associated with any unpaid amounts due from the tenant to the landlord pursuant to the lease, including rent, fees, or unit damage in excess of wear resulting from normal wear and tear, provided that a landlord may not charge a fee that is more than the cost of obtaining and administering such insurance.
House Bill 394
This Act provides that the Department of Correction must provide a copy of all policies relating to the accrual and forfeiture of good time to inmates, as well as a quarterly written accounting of good time credit earned and/or forfeited. The requirement that all accrued time must be forfeited upon conviction of any crime within custody, the complete forfeiture will apply only to commission of felonies. Forfeiture of good times for rule violations is changed to apply only to Class I disciplinary violations. The Act also updates § 4322 of Title 11 to allow dissemination of Department of Correction policies and procedures to inmates and the public where such dissemination would not endanger safety or security of a correctional facility, corrections staff, inmates, or the public.

It requires that all large public works construction projects, utilizing state funds, are to be governed by a Community Workforce Agreement with labor organizations engaged in the construction industry to provide structure and stability and promote efficient completion.
