Sunrise RI calls for Rep. Justin Price to Resign or be Expelled
Rep. Price's attendance at the Capitol complex is unacceptable, he cannot be allowed to remain in our state's legislature.
Read our full statement below.

*SIGN IF U AGREE!* Rep. Price's attendance at the 1/6 attack was not a surprise, considering his love of disinformation: keep in mind that he flouts mask mandates & has expressed skepticism re: climate change. It is dangerous to keep him in office.

Another petition calling for the resignation or removal of Rep @JustinPriceRI over his involvement in the DC protests turned insurrection last Wednesday. @UpriseRI

This past year of campaigning, canvassing, and holding virtual events has allowed me to get to know and love so many amazing people. To my @ripolcoop family and all my loyal volunteers, thank you from the bottom of my heart. No matter what happens today, I’ve already won.
.@JoeBiden just released a new climate ad targeting young voters
He knows that if he wants young people on his side, he has to listen to us & that's what he's doing. He's making climate change a top issue in his campaign & we're going to make sure he follows through once elected
Alright South County, it's time to elect @CotterforRI and @Volpinator1, if you can knock doors or call voters please reach out so I can connect you to their campaigns!
What has my opponent accomplished? Mostly nothing. Though she always seems to court controversy. Like the time she said all Muslims want to rape and murder Americans. And when she attacked working families and the poor. You can read about that here.

.@ryangrim on the progressive wave in RI, with a strong role played by @sunrisemvmt 's chapters @sunrise_PVD & @sunrisescounty: "Two Sunrise hubs in Providence and South County played a critical role, with more than 10 full-time organizers dedicated to the operation"
These are all fantastic orgs who did amazing work. But win rates aren't everything. The fact that @ripolcoop w/ @sunrise_PVD@sunrisescounty had the biggest impact in the Senate should tell you that investing early in good, "long-shot" candidates is powerful.
We won 8 races, toppling entrenched incumbents across the state! And we’re just getting started. This movement belongs to everyone who wants a better RI – universal healthcare, a #GreenNewDeal, affordable housing, racial justice, and a $15 minimum wage.

Together, @ripolcoop @ProvDSA @sunrise_PVD@ri_wfp and @reclaimri showed that Rhode Island is ready for new, progressive, leadership. Old conservative “Democrats” beware.
When we fight, we win.
