AGP Executive Report

Last update: 31 minutes ago

Election Results: Helena Foulkes won Rhode Island’s governorship, David Morales became Providence’s next mayor, and Kim Ahern was elected attorney general. Democrats also strengthened their hold on the legislature, while voters approved $450 million in borrowing, including a $120 million affordable-housing bond. Providence Vote: City voters backed a measure calling for divestment from Israel and related entities by a wide margin. Its reach and enforceability may face legal challenges, including questions about the city pension fund. Energy: Revolution Wind is fully operational, supplying power to Rhode Island and Connecticut after construction was twice halted by the Trump administration. Prudence Island: A proposed settlement would raise round-trip ferry fares to $16.80, the first increase in about a decade, as the operator seeks more revenue to cover rising costs. Public Health: State testing found PFAS above Rhode Island limits in 37 private wells near Central Coventry Park; results are pending for 16 more, and DEM says treatment systems will be provided at no cost to affected homeowners. Woonsocket: CVS plans to split into separate pharmacy and healthcare businesses by 2028, a major change for the company headquartered in the city.
