AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Charter School Crossroads in RI: Rhode Island Gov. Dan McKee is caught between charter-school supporters and union ties as the Senate advances a charter moratorium bill that also lowers the charter cap and could stall specific schools, with a final vote looming. Campaign Shake-Up: McKee’s reelection team pulled and replaced a TV ad after a brief on-screen “sex: yes” and drug reference, spending more to rerun the corrected version. Sex Abuse Claims Reform: The RI Senate voted to allow a “revival window” for previously expired claims tied to clergy sex abuse, opening July 1, 2026 and running through June 30, 2028. Energy Efficiency Council Drama: A Providence council member nominee was held up for further review after surprise agenda changes, raising questions about the governor’s appointments. Broadband & Connectivity: Rhode Island is also watching BEAD implementation nationwide, while local groups push new ways to get affordable internet to schools and nonprofits. Meteor Update: NASA says a recent New England sonic boom came from a meteor that broke up over the region and fell into Cape Cod Bay.
