AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Hurricane Watch: NOAA says there’s a 55% chance of another below-average Atlantic season—but warns “it only takes one” storm, with El Niño likely driving conditions while uncertainty remains. Smith Hill Oversight: Rhode Island lawmakers are pushing competing bills to create a state inspector general, with House Speaker Christopher Blazejewski backing a version focused on executive-branch spending and actions. Public Records Fight: A bill (S.2393) would require verified identity for public-record requests, drawing pushback from ACLU and Common Cause RI over fears it could chill access. Federal Court Win (Elsewhere): A judge tossed the Trump administration’s bid to force Wisconsin to hand over an unredacted statewide voter file, citing voter privacy and federal overreach. RI Crime/Justice: A Bristol-area bookkeeper faces federal charges tied to unpaid payroll taxes. Summer Costs: Higher fuel prices are nudging Americans toward shorter trips, with travel spending expected to rise only modestly.
