Subcommittees
track legislation introduced in their areas of interest, and work with the
Advocacy committee to determine which hearings need to be monitored and which
bills need response from us. The LWVRI is partnering with organizations such as
Common Cause, ACCESS RI, the Coalition for Reproductive Justice, and ACLU to
act on bills of mutual interest to our organizations.
The meeting
is open to members only.
To join or
