Remembering Senator Goodwin for her leadership & passion. She was a champion for the health of RIers. In recent years, she sponsored lifesaving legislation that ensured 911 operators are trained & ready to provide CPR instruction over the phone in the event of a cardiac arrest.

A coalition of more than 30 local organizations joined together today in the Statehouse library in support of “Healthy School Meals for All,” a policy which would offer free breakfast and lunch to all students, regardless of their household income, as part of the school day. The group is supporting proposed legislation in the House and the @RISenate sponsored by @Justine4RI & @SANDRISCANO respectively. More information, including a list of members of a coalition supporting the legislation, is online: rilegislature.gov/pressrelease/_…

Rhode Island needs a comprehensive, long-term plan to address hunger. @aharhodeisland urges @GovDanMcKee to consider @NourishRI's proposed Retail SNAP Incentive Program, which would provide SNAP recipients with 50% off fresh produce, as an immediate first step.

Congrats @MaryellnGoodwin & @MiaForRep! Thank you for your extraordinary leadership on the lifesaving T-CPR Law and for your commitment to advancing the mission of the American Heart Assn! @RISenate @RIHouseofReps

"...it is unconscionable that a person’s access to healthcare often comes down to skin color, income, geography, disability, and employment or immigration status."
