About Ed Osienski

Meet Ed:

I was born in Delaware, and my family, and I have lived right here in Newark for 37 years. I’m retired after 36 years in the fire sprinkler industry- 16 years as a sprinkler fitter- 15 years as a project salesman, and 5 years as the Business Agent for Sprinkler Fitters Local Union 669. Currently I am a full time State Representative. 

I am committed to serving to the residents of this district. This is a diverse community: with from working class seniors who have raised their families here and are now empty nesters, to young couples planting their roots and starting a family. I have gotten to know many of you over the years from attending civic association meetings, community gatherings, and more.

I have a proven track record of community and constituent service, and that service has only improved with my years of experience in Dover. I work directly with all state agencies to ensure my constituents are receiving the services and resources they need to remain safe and healthy to protect them and their property values.

I will continue to work to improve Delaware’s economy through job creation initiatives and workforce training. I’m working to strengthen our schools by expanding early education, properly funding resources for high and special needs students and expanding career pathway opportunities. I will continue to support and sponsor legislation that will have a positive socio-economic impact for the diverse residents of the 24th District and all Delawareans.
