AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Cybersecurity & State Workers: Beacon Mutual says a January ransomware attack exposed data tied to about 132,000 Rhode Islanders, including roughly 4,500 current and former state employees, with the state stressing its systems weren’t at risk. Local Government & Privacy: Warren is moving toward a first-in-the-state ordinance to regulate private use of automatic license plate reader cameras, aiming to curb unregulated collection of vehicle location data. Politics & Cannabis: Gov. Dan McKee nominated Michelle Reddish, the state’s top cannabis administrator, to chair the Cannabis Control Commission; the pick now heads to the Senate. Sports Betting Oversight: A coalition led by Ohio AG Dave Yost urged federal regulators to keep sports-related prediction markets under state control, arguing platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi function like sportsbooks. Health Care Workforce: New Mexico expanded its physician loan repayment program to tackle doctor shortages—an example that highlights how Rhode Island’s own smaller program compares. Public Safety & Housing: Rhode Island’s governor race ad battle heats up as McKee attacks CVS-linked opponent Helena Foulkes, while housing reports show more renters negotiating deals this spring.
