Brown University is the workplace of thousands of union members. I’ve been in contact with many of our local union leaders and while they safe they are still sheltering in place. The @riaflcio.bsky.social is ready to lend our solidarity to Brown and Providence.

Can we be clear here? Trump and his Musk/Vought ‘Axis of Destruction’ are losing in court because they are acting illegally and unconstitutionally. Full stop.

Disappointing response from Mayor Smiley. Playing the waiting game isn’t leadership
NEW: Moments after a report dropped that the DOJ may investigate local or state officials who they believe are interfering with the Trump administration’s crackdown on immigration, I asked Mayor Smiley if that changes anything in Providence.

Smiley: Providence will take Trump's immigration policy 'one step at a time'
Mayor Brett Smiley said the details of new immigration enforcement guidance or executive orders under President Donald Trump will still have to be evaluated by city lawyers.

First up is CARLOS!

Like his mom @slgeller.bsky.social, he's a strong supporter of Equity Impact Statements. He wants to share that this is a way to understand the impact of policies + eliminate disparities so all of RI can prosper!

I’ll be speaking this morning during the service at Bell St. Chapel in Providence. I’ll talk about homelessness. With this upcoming cold weather, that’s important, but the dehumanization people endure while homeless year round should not be forgotten.
