Here's the bill to block immigration detention centers in Rhode Island (& close the Wyatt, which has already killed at least one person--that's the "renew" part). You'll want to write to the RI Senate Judiciary Committee, which I'll link in the next post. webserver.rilegislature.gov/BillText/Bil...

Best moment for me: converging w/high schoolers parading down from the East Side. Everyone screamed with delight. A colleague's kid in middle school organized 6 friends to come out. Love you PVD! Let's shut down detention in RI! webserver.rilegislature.gov/BillText/BillText26/SenateText26/S2278.pdf

Hey Rhode Island, let's shut down the Wyatt Detention Center & block the construction of new immigration detention facilities. Let's do it this year webserver.rilegislature.gov/BillText/Bil...

Bill introduced to amend RI's constitution and add same-day voter registration in the state. RI currently has this *only* for the presidential election.

This would end up going to the voters.

This bill, from Senators Tikoian, Ciccone, Felag, Burke, Dimitri, Famiglietti, E Morgan, Paolino, Thompson, and DiPalma, would eliminate the estate tax, which is only paid by dead millionaires.

Disgusting. Do these Senators have no shame?

If you're watching the RI Senate Judiciary Committee, they just took a bill that would undermine our judicial selection system, and made it worse with an amendment. webserver.rilegislature.gov/BillText/Bil...

So it begins. Glad RI passed the SHIELD ACT last year to protect healthcare providers.

If you're in RI & snowbound by the biggest blizzard since '78, may I suggest taking a moment to block all new & renewed immigration detention in our state by emailing the RI senate judiciary committee in support of this bill webserver.rilegislature.gov/BillText/Bil...

#RhodeIsland could also regain regional leadership, but won't outpace Massachusetts unless the state signs more power contracts.

BTW there's a bill in the Assembly to do that by Reps. @jenstewart4ri.bsky.social @jenniferboylanri.bsky.social & others. /11

People ARE blocking these at the municipal level, including in places you might not expect. There's also the state-level option like this in RI webserver.rilegislature.gov/BillText/Bil...

The bill text is pretty much unreadable to non-lawyers. It allows the utility regulator to authorize an “experimental mechanism” for cost recovery based on a cross-reference to a separate, existing authority.

I was honored to join R.A.M.P. (Real Access Motivates Progress) for the first-ever Accessibility Day at the State House. R.A.M.P. promotes equal opportunities. I introduced legislation to make housing R.I. aceesible for all Rhode Islanders.
