Proposing Two Years of Free College for Every Rhode Islander
Friends -??
Monday morning, I joined the Ministers Alliance of Rhode Island for their annual Martin Luther King Jr. Scholarship breakfast to share some exciting news: the budget I’ll present this week includes a plan to guarantee two years of free college for every Rhode Island student at CCRI, URI and RIC.
Full details for the plan are available at FreeCollegeRI.com, but I wanted to share with you my remarks, as prepared, from this morning. And don’t forget to tune in tomorrow night, Tuesday, January 17 at 7 p.m. for my third State of the State address. We’ll stream it live on my Facebook page here.
The people of Rhode Island are up to meeting the challenges of this new economy. Let’s work together to give our young people a shot at a brighter future.
Sincerely,
GINA
