@projomike Welcome to the 4th Industrial revolution

I can’t wait for AI to unionize.

Part 2 of our series: A pilot program aimed at providing shelter beds during the coldest nights this winter supplied a cot and meals for thousands of people over more than 50 days since December. We go inside to see what made it work. @projo providencejournal.com/story/news/loc…

'Crisis,' or 'best practice?' Why advocates are split on RI's new homeless system providencejournal.com/story/news/pol… via @projo

Our latest investigation- in today’s @projo providencejournal.com/story/news/pol…

The number of people living in tent encampments in RI has increased dramatically over the past several years. Our latest investigation just posted @projo providencejournal.com/story/news/pol…

NEW: @seiu1199 PAC launches push for pro-affordability candidates and policies in Rhode Island oceanstatemedia.org/politics/union…

@AshleyKalus $1.1 billion from the feds 3 years ago and $30 million for general training, with none for the specific, looming crisis of reskilling workers for automation. State hasn’t figured out their a 1987 post manufacturing state in America.

Well, because she’s saving what I’ve been saying about AI. I’m less doom-and-gloom about it, but Rhode Island still needs a plan to deal with the labor force displacement. We’re going to have a massive problem because one of the largest employers is the state. How do you handle a displaced private workforce that may be forced to subsidize a largely unnecessary state workforce that already makes up a huge share of RI jobs? And you have two Boomer candidates whose approaches to AI haven’t been articulated, nor do they seem to have seriously intellectually engaged with the issue or have the skills to do so. @DanMcGowan - As a public service, can you please engage with this issue more? It’s the most consequential policy challenge Rhode Island will face in a generation. And it will happen in 18-24 mo max.

She is correct.

He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how

@ALivelyExp Congratulations

Congrats to Hummel

After blizzard, advocates checking on those who tried to ride out the storm in tents. “Hopefully, we didn’t lose anyone,” said Prof. @ehirsch5, interim director of the Rhode Island Homeless Advocacy Project bostonglobe.com/2026/02/24/met… via @BostonGlobe

NEW: Hockey rink shooter Robert Dorgan was the father of Kevin Colantonio, who was convicted of setting fire to a predominantly Black church in RI in 2024. Sources tell Target 12 Colantonio was influenced by Dorgan's far-right ideology. w/ @Eli_Sherman wpri.com/target-12/pawt…

We have expected RI's two employment measures to move together again. Well, it appears to have happened. Reminds me of the saying "Be careful of what you wish for."

@OBrien2024forRI The rate of deaths is 2.83 times greater in schools with an armed guard present. jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

HEALTH: Privatization of hospitals generally corresponded with worse quality of care, fewer cleaning staff per patient, higher infections and higher rates of avoidable deaths, according to a study published in The Lancet Public Health.

People are still freezing to death in RI during 'Operation No One Dies'-RI needs more affordable housing & a guarantee of shelter for those who seek it. We cannot continue to let people die on the street. @rihomeless @RICouncilChurch @homesRI providencejournal.com/story/news/loc… via @projo

The two people found dead in car outside a Providence hospital were homeless. A mother and her son were found in a vehicle outside The Miriam Hospital two weeks after a man was found dead on a sidewalk in downtown Providence amid severe cold weather bostonglobe.com/2026/02/13/met…
