“I ask for your vote running because I believe District 71 needs a leader who can bring people together to solve the serious challenges facing our state. All Rhode Islanders deserve better than the divisive political games that have been played recently at the General Assembly. I have a demonstrated track record of honesty and integrity, and I will keep my focus on the key concerns that East Bay voters have - not partisan wrangling.”
