We are leading the nation on economy recovery, COVID-19 response, and now gun safety.
John,
Rhode Island is a national leader. Not only did my administration implement one of the best vaccine rollouts in the country, taking us from worst to first in a matter of months, we are leading the nation in economic recovery from the pandemic.
Right now, Rhode Island is ranked #2 in the country and #1 in the Northeast for recovering our economy. When was the last time Rhode Island was first out of a recession?
I recently signed bills to save lives and keep our communities safe – making Rhode Island a leader in common sense gun safety – and to legalize recreational cannabis.
Next week, we will finalize the budget, making major investments to continue growing the economy, improving our schools, supporting small businesses, and tackling the housing crisis.
I’ll give it to you straight: I'm up against opponents with deep-pockets, well-connected families, and uper PACs. In fact, my self-funding opponents are already running ads on TV.
