Team,

The COVID-19 pandemic has hit Rhode Island hard, and our economy is lagging. We still have 25,000 fewer jobs than before the pandemic, and our unemployment rate is well above the national average. Rhode Island workers, families and small businesses are facing real hardships, and we need to take immediate action to turn our economy around.

I believe that with the right leadership, we can build an economy that works for all Rhode Islanders by investing in the creative, entrepreneurial spirit of people in the Ocean State.

Today, I'm releasing our Economic Development and Small Business plan to support small businesses, attract employers in high-growth industries, and build on Rhode Island's many strengths to create a vibrant economy so that people can get good jobs here -- without having to leave the state.

As your next Governor, I will support our small businesses by providing the tools and resources they need to thrive. We'll set the stage for innovation by attracting high-growth industries where we have a competitive advantage. I will work to improve our state's business climate by building our state's reputation as an attractive place to start and grow a business. And I will invest in strengthening workforce training to build our state's talent and ensure everyone has a chance to succeed.

We have an opportunity to build a stronger economy than ever before in Rhode Island, but I need to know you're with me. Will you add your name to support our Economic Development and Small Business Plan?

As Treasurer, I've worked in innovative ways to promote economic growth and create jobs in Rhode Island. By negotiating the relocation of a financial services technology company's headquarters from Massachusetts to Warwick, we brought over 150 good-paying jobs to our state.

My BankLOCAL program has assisted nearly 400 Rhode Island small businesses in obtaining $47 million in loans to expand and hire. The clean energy finance programs I launched have invested more than $120 million into alternative energy and energy efficiency projects in the Ocean State and created nearly 2,000 construction jobs.

Together, we can invest in our people, support small businesses, and attract good-paying jobs to strengthen Rhode Island's economy. Add your name if you're ready to rebuild Rhode Island's economy >> [link removed]

Let's Get to Work,

Seth
