Sharing another powerful testimony in support of H7774 from last week's House Finance Committee hearing - this time from the incredible Marjorie Waters of @riop_ri! We are honored to fight with them to @SaveRIPTA and #FundTransit.
At last night’s #SaveRIPTA gathering to support funding @RIPTA_RI by $78M, @tanzister said Rhodies should “dream big” with public transit - including light rail! Imagine a world where a worker in Woonsocket can train ride to their factory job at Quonset. I can. Can you?
@historyinmemes The Omaha Beach scene from Saving Private Ryan was depicted with so much accuracy to the actual event that the Department of Veteran Affairs set up a telephone hotline for traumatised veterans to cope.
I look forward to serving Providence & our residents in this capacity with providing my range of perspectives, expertise, & support for the City’s sustainability & climate agenda!
