@phalpern Was it @kipthorne? I could see him doing something thoughtful like this

@ChrisFrappier Hey thanks! I didn't know it was possible to track that down. The whole system seems designed to discourage people from digging too deeply

[Jeffrey Richardson @jsrichardson9]

The new RI Speaker spent $15,190 on “Food, Beverage & Meals” in 2020, almost all of it untraceable. Many other big transactions hidden from the public.

Where is he spending it?!?! Guess we’ll just have to wonder.

While I'm picking on him...

He also earned another $16k, chump change, in campaign finance interest in 2020

In 2010, Providence led the state with only 38% approval for the name change, followed by Central falls at 33%.

This year, 20 of 39 RI communities had over 50% approval

@IanDon @steveahlquist @FitzProv @wbuteau

[Jeffrey Richardson @jsrichardson9]

Every community in Rhode Island warmed up to the name change compared with 10 years ago #rstats #gganimate
