From a dear friend, a native Rhode Islander who just took a job elsewhere and moved away. Just days after the state leadership pointed fingers instead of owning their ongoing failure to fund our transit system (among other failures), I feel this in my bones.

from Hasbro to everyday Rhode Islanders, RIPTA’s chronic underfunding is actively pushing people away from our state. but our legislative leaders and governor seem to think more tax breaks will get people and businesses to stay. it’s inept at best, malicious at worst. RI deserves real leadership.

Shocking NO votes: Sen. Bissaillon— North End of Providence. Sen. Urso—Pawtucket. Two crosstown routes 76 & 80 could be affected by cuts. Sen. Murray—Woonsocket, where RIPTA Routes 54 & 87 are lifelines for many folks. Sen. President Lawson—East Providence. Transit riders deserved better. 😞🚌

Rep Morales issues a FOIA seeking info on ICE activities in the state and urges an end to state law enforcement’s use of unmarked vehicles. "People have been kidnapped off the streets, families have been torn apart, and immigrants are being deported with no due process."

“Do nothing when RIDOT leadership allows a key bridge to crumble, beyond blaming everyone else but those in charge of the state agency. Keeping the RIDOT director, on whose watch this mess happened, as chair of the RIPTA board is the cherry on top.” 🔥🔥🔥 ecori.org/appalling-la...

The accused assassin allegedly used data brokers to track down the Democratic lawmakers he murdered. Congress doesn't need any more proof that selling data to anyone with a credit card is deadly. Every American's safety is at risk until Congress cracks down on data brokers.

“There’s politics, and then there’s the indefensible. Rhode Island Senate President Val Lawson has the power to ban assault-style firearms right now. Don’t let anyone tell you differently. No one else matters. There’s no secret bogeyman preventing her from bringing the bill to a vote.”

Minneapolis: If you're seeing what's happening in LA, we need to start thinking realistically about what we need to do when it's our turn. Tuesday was a test run. We cannot be caught off guard again. We are not done with attacks from this administration. Stay ready so we don't have to get ready.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

not even approaching this from a moral angle (was is bad and there is a genocide taking place in gaza), “massive war causes health crises” should not be a controversial stance as it is based in fact zionism has absolutely broken people’s brains; or, more aptly, is functioning as intended
