This is the result of hard work by @MomsDemand volunteers, @StudentsDemand leaders, and gun safety advocates! ✊🏾 I'm grateful to @Rep_Jason, who has sponsored or cosponsored an assault weapons ban every year since 2018, and was key in getting this passed. bit.ly/4kRaQ8P

Moms Demand Action volunteers have been working with Rhode Island lawmakers for months to ban the sale of assault weapons. Tonight, a ban FINALLY passed the state legislature! We’re grateful to gun sense champion @Rep_Jason, who stood up to gun extremists and never backed down.

The Assault Weapons Ban bill passed out of committee today and I’m looking forward to a robust debate and vote this Thursday on the House floor. Thank you to all the advocates who have worked tirelessly for years to get to this day.

Had a great time at @GLADLaw's annual RI event last night. They do amazing work for the LGBTQ+ community and I am proud to support them.

This morning I attended the Vietnam Memorial Service in Warren. We remember those who gave their lives in defending our nation, especially the four men from Warren who made the ultimate sacrifice in Vietnam.

I just heard the news of the passing of Senate President Dominick Ruggerio. My heartfelt condolences go out to his family, his constituents, and his colleagues. May his memory be a blessing.

The Rhode Island House Judiciary Committee will hold hearings on March 26, 2025, on the assault weapon ban bill. Supporters are encouraged to attend and testify or write letters in favor of the bill. We can and will get this done! How to send a letter: rilegislature.gov/SiteAssets/Wri…

Gotta say, RI needs serious public records reform. Public records should be easily obtainable and free from interference from a local bureaucrat. This bill definitely goes in the wrong direction. bostonglobe.com/2025/03/14/met…

This is a sordid tale and worth the read. Kudos to the AG’s office for stepping up and working to make RI Energy pay back the money that Nat Grid fraudulently obtained. And then some.

Channel 12 needs to go back and do some homework and read the bill. Their chart is inaccurate. Shotguns with detachable mags AND certain features are out. Detachable mags on their own isn’t an issue. Who’s the copy editor? wpri.com/news/politics/…
