Hello Friends & Neighbors, I hope that this note finds you all well. I know that 2026 has already been quite heavy.  Hours after I spoke at a Vigil reflecting on the 5th Anniversary of the January 6th insurrection, we heard news that the U.S. had kidnapped the president of another sovereign nation -- and a day after, we watched horrific ICE brutality in Minneapolis. It's been relentless. But at the same time -- I am so inspired and hopeful because of the actions I am seeing

Dear Friends & Neighbors, As 2025 draws to a close, I am reminded of a conversation from New Years a few years ago with a friend and mentor. As I wished him an Amazing New Year, he thoughtfully asked me, “What will you do to make this an amazing New Year?” With all of the opportunities and challenges ahead of us in Rhode Island – I am once again asking myself, “What will I do to make this an amazing new year?” And in 2026 -- I am doing that by doubling down on my commitment

Dear Friends & Neighbors, I hope that you all had a lovely Thanksgiving holiday with your family and friends. I know that for many in our community, times are tough economically.
