As an organization, we have made the decision to take an indefinite break from X, as the platform is no longer part of our social media strategy. This decision aligns with our commitment to building a stronger and more equitable Rhode Island for all. https://t.co/ob37QmQffv

George has been a fantastic partner & dear friend to @liveunitedri for decades. We were thrilled to honor him w/ our Dante Mollo labor leadership award a few years back.

TY, George, for being respectfully edgy & fighting for the rights of others. It’s a joy to work with you!

✊ Thank you, @divya__nair and @EconProgressRI, for advocating for paid family leave that works for all Rhode Islanders.

Workers in R.I. receive only 60% of their salary on leave — a cut families living paycheck to paycheck cannot afford.

"For us, it's about making this system, which has worked for so many people, become equitable + accessible to everyone."
