Legislators of color aim to protect Rhode Islanders
Manage episode 471140282 series 3384875
As the Trump administration threatens to remove federal funding for a range of initiatives, from scientific research to health insurance, local lawmakers are pushing back. Providence Democrats Senator Tiara Mack and Representative David Morales are the co-chairs of the Rhode Island Black, Latino, Indigenous, Asian- American, and Pacific Islander Caucus – or RIBLIA. They say the group’s legislative priorities aim to give Rhode Islanders the tools to protect against “the worst effects of the administration.” They talk with host Ed Fitzpatrick about their plans.
