There is so much potential in our youth! Participated in lunch w/a legislator hosted by RI Department of State | Secretary Gregg M. Amore & was grilled about the right to read, assisted suicide, the assault weapons ban, and pursuing higher ed. These young folks are ready 2 lead & engage in defending our democracy!
