An excellent article in the Independent today about House Bill 7373, Safe Firearm Storage bill - passed by the Senate, languishing in the House. Please implore your Representative and the Speaker to bring this to the floor for a vote.
Thank you to Mr. B and @ClassicalHSPVD students for inviting us to speak about #gunsafety yesterday. The students asked thoughtful questions and care about #gunviolence in our communities. I know we will see them at the state house! #EndGunViolence
We learned the students passed the #AssaultWeaponsBan. The @RIHouseofReps and @RISenate should follow suit knowing the majority of citizens support it. @Rep_Jason @SenLouDiPalma @RISpeaker @SenatorRuggerio #EndGunViolence

It's way past time for an #AssaultWeaponsBan in #RhodeIsland. The majority of Americans, RI'ers+ legislators agree. We are failing our kids full stop. Watch the video @RIHouseofReps @RISenate @Rep_Jason @AGNeronha @RISpeaker @SenatorRuggerio @SenLouDiPalma #EndGunViolence

On this day in 2007, 32 students and educators were shot and killed and over a dozen more were wounded on the campus of Virginia Tech—the deadliest mass shooting at a school in modern American history. We hold the victims and survivors in our hearts today and every day as we…
As the head of the first-ever White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention, I am proud to announce that all gun dealers must conduct background checks no matter where or how they sell. This will save lives and keep our communities safe.
Great news from @POTUS in the fight to #EndGunViolence. 97% of Americans agree - EVERY gun sale should require a background check. Lives will be saved!

Trump has always told you who he is & what he will do. Believe him & vote against him to save our democracy!
The only way to stop unintentional shootings - a uniquely American crisis - is to hold adults accountable when they don’t securely store their firearms. Let this be a lesson to every irresponsible gun owner in America: there will be serious consequences for your negligence.

Thank u @USAO_RI +Temple Habonim for hosting United Against Hate Workshop. We must report expressions of hate to law enforcement. Shane @NVInstitute discusses the importance of beloved community in fighting hate. Hate+firearms are a most lethal combo. #DisarmHate #EndGunViolence
"Messages that villainize already marginalized groups—like trans people—are just attempts to distract from the fact that it’s weak gun safety laws that drive our uniquely American gun violence crisis.” -@FerrellZabala splcenter.org/hatewatch/2024…
This week marks one year since the shooting at Covenant School in Nashville that took the lives of three third-graders and three school staff members. And still, extremists would rather ban books than fix the weak gun laws that are killing our kids.

Thank you for joining us, Speaker Shekarchi!
Great time speaking w/a very impressive group of young leaders at @RISecState's inaugural Civic Leadership Summit for students, where I participated in a panel discussion about the legislative branch. The students asked very thoughtful questions and we had a great conversation!
Thank you for joining us, Representative Potter!
It was such a pleasure to engage with these students and hear their thoughtful insights about our political process. Rhode Island is fortunate to have a Secretary of State so dedicated to promoting civic engagement to our youth. Thank you, @RISecState Amore.
Thanks @leeannbyrne for inviting me to watch a little bit of the legislative day. The kids are debating a proposed assault weapons ban, hearing from legislators and lobbyists. What a way to spend their school vacation week!
Gotta admit that this Rhode Island civics fantasy camp that @RISecState and his team are running this week is making 14-year old me pretty jealous.

When I saw some of the students asking the speakers to autograph their Pocket Constitutions, I knew this team really brought @GreggAmore1’s vision to life. A million thank yous to all who made this Summit a huge success.
After three incredible days, the inaugural RI Civic Leadership Summit has come to a close. Students had the opportunity to meet elected and appointed officials, experience a legislative simulation, learn about Rhode Island history, collaborate with their peers, and so much more.
Critical to addressing this are appropriate reimbursements, especially Medicaid. Now that @OHICRhodeIsland has completed their exemplary analysis, along with accompanying recommendations, we need to make the difficult decision and make the investments.
That’s a given. Yet pool of primary care providers in RI continues to shrink because they are grossly undervalued by governmental & commercial insurers. Bold action = flipping reimbursement levels on their heads. Primary care ⬆️. Specialty care ⬇️
This is my friend and hero Allison Polidor. Republican lawmakers in Tennessee had her arrested for silently holding a small sign during a public safety hearing; if she’d been holding a gun, they would have given her an award. Video by @Justinjpearson
Closing the gun show loophole will help keep guns out of the hands of dangerous criminals. I was pleased to help pass Bipartisan #SaferCommunitiesAct to make this possible & boost # of background checks performed. Congress should take next step & pass universal background checks.
Today, the Justice Department has announced the “Engaged in the Business” Final Rule – an updated and clear definition of who must obtain a license and conduct a background check before selling firearms. 🔗: justice.gov/opa/pr/justice…
My son was gunned down for playing loud music. Common-sense solutions ensure that dangerous individuals are barred from the means to inflict tragedy and horror. Thank you @JoeBiden for moving this nation in the right direction. axios.com/2024/04/11/bid…
