RI State Senator Victoria Gu, District 38

We had so much interest in our prev Zoom town hall with researchers on climate resiliency, that we are excited to have a follow-up forum, including assistance applying for disaster relief, with @RI_CRMC , @RhodeIslandEMA, and @fema on April 29. Submit Q's: victoria4ri.com/town-hall

his willingness to talk to us candidly, and his willingness to listen and sometimes put aside his personal beliefs when they differed from the majority. I’m glad to have served under his leadership. He will be missed dearly, and my condolences go out to his family members. 2/2

Deeply saddened at the passing of our @RISenate President Dominick Ruggerio, who has served Rhode Island in the House and Senate for decades. I admired his dedication to the institution, his championing of quality education and healthcare for all 1/2

Sen. @Victoria4RI and Rep. @TerriCortvriend have introduced legislation to protect Rhode Islanders’ access to the shoreline by allowing towns to preserve recreation easements on abandoned roads and protecting parking near these rights of way. Learn more: rilegislature.gov/pressrelease/_…

It’s a beautiful day out here in Westerly, the perfect weather for a nice walk to your local polling place. Great to stop by Westerly Middle School with Rep. Azzinaro and @Victoria4RI and see so many people out voting today.

Thank you Geoff Serra for your letter of support in the WesterlySun this week! I met Geoff while going door-to-door in 2022 and we've kept in touch ever since. See all the letters to the editor so far linked on my website: victoria4ri.com

I’m honored to have the support of labor unions ranging from educators to healthcare workers, firefighters, social workers and agricultural workers, etc. They fight tirelessly to help workers - middle class families - have family-sustaining jobs.

Know anyone who's new in town? Make sure they know about the deadline to register to vote in this upcoming election! It's coming up in 4 days (October 6th), and it's easy to register online at vote.ri.gov (you will need a RI driver's license or state ID)

Exactly six weeks before the Nov 5th election! A lot of voters are excited/anxious about the national election, which is why we will have postcards at our upcoming event for people to write a simple message to voters in swing states. Sign up for Oct 9th at victoria4ri.com/events

Today is primary #ElectionDay in RI! Check vote.ri.gov because primary polling locations can differ from the general election. I’ll also be at several polling places throughout the day. Feel free to say hi!

Thank you @CleanWater_RI for endorsing my campaign for State Senate District 38! In 2024 we banned PFAS (forever chemicals) from key consumer products like clothing & cookware. We still need to mitigate plastics so that they don't break down into microplastics in our environment

Glad to support Cross Mills Library in Charlestown with a legislative grant to purchase ebooks and audiobooks. Ebooks and audiobooks are booming in popularity, and I was glad to sponsor legislation to reign in the inflated costs big publishers charge to libraries.

2 yrs ago I was humbled to become the State Senator for District 38. From shoreline access & climate adaptation, to healthcare & education funding, we’ve made progress, but there’s much more to do. So I filed to run for re-election! Sign up at victoria4ri.com/volunteer

AG Neronha, @SaveTheBayRI, @Victoria4RI, @TerriCortvriend call for CRMC reform: “If we as a state are serious about protecting our environment & coastline, we need a dedicated agency with the organization & expertise to handle complex permitting & enforcement issues." More ⬇️

Earlier today, Senators @SANDRISCANO, @AlanaDimario, @bridget4ri, @Victoria4RI and @jakeforri toured the Meals on Wheels (@MealsRI) headquarters in Providence to learn more about the organization’s ongoing work to serve new populations across Rhode Island.

Scammers are using CryptoATMs as the payment method in their scams. Thank you ⁦@JulieCasimiroRI⁩ and ⁦@Victoria4RI⁩ for sponsoring H7266/S2504. This bill will put important consumer protections in place. ⁦ podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…

Barrington students came to State House today to testify on "urgency" of needed actions to combat effects of climate change and specifically H7022: webserver.rilegislature.gov/BillText/BillT…

I brought some maps to @WBLQradio Resiliency Radio hour. Some fast facts: - 23% of Westerly is within the 100-Year Flood Zone Area (color-coded green, blue, pink) - Homes in the 100-Year Flood Zone have a 26% chance of getting flooded at least once during a 30-year mortgage
