Outstanding result.
A federal judge struck down President Donald Trump’s executive order blocking wind energy projects, saying the effort to halt virtually all leasing of wind farms on federal lands and waters was “arbitrary and capricious” and violates U.S. law.

At the Women's Bar Association event last night to honor Federal Defender Tara Allen. Tara talked defending constitutional rights, how hard it can be when the government is bent on ignoring the constitution, and the necessity of doing it - especially in times like these.

My heart goes out to the two Guardsman who were shot yesterday and their families. I’m hopeful that they recover. Their sacrifice in the line of duty will not be forgotten

ICE operation caused a stir in Warren. Only evidence of a criminal charge in RI is from 2012, dismissed by a judge. ICE declined to provide case numbers for others alleged in official statement. Here's what we know about who was detained. https://t.co/a1oORtwW4a

The operation drew a crowd of protesters and the attention of a local lawmaker.

Joint oversight committee on the bridge. Let’s hope we get some answers this time. The public’s right to know what happened here is paramount.

Thank you for all the veterans who served honorably. I'm deeply grateful for your service. Pictured is my grandfather Billie who served in WWII in Europe and Korea and my father Jay who was a sonar man in the North Atlantic. Miss them every day.

I'm astounded that the feds are balking at paying for food for hungry families, elders, and kids. I'm grateful to the AG's who are fighting in court. I hope the appeals court acts ASAP. This is not complicated. Use the money you already have and follow the law: FEED THE PEOPLE!

Last weekend we had the Warren Walkabout on a beautiful day! Grateful to the RI Sec. of State who brought one of our copies of the Declaration of Independence for everyone to see. The Declaration of is cool but the letter from John Quincy Adams that came with it is pretty awesome

I’m so glad this project is finally coming together. Looking forward to riding over the finished product.
