During WPRO 630 AM's lieutenant governor radio forum, host @billbartholomew.bsky.social asked the candidates if they're open-minded to statewide rent controls. "The only yes came from @sueanderbois.bsky.social, who voted in favor of rent stabilization three times on the Providence City Council."

#Synchronicity: we just finished taping the #ShiftingGround podcast with John Tien when I heard @billbartholomew.bsky.social on @997wpro.bsky.social talking about the shift he is sensing. We talked with John about the "close" of the post-Cold War age and what he is advising students moving forward.

This is pretty funny for a group that is backing candidate in Democratic primaries. Kudos to @billbartholomew.bsky.social for repeating the question, though Levesque still wriggled out of answering it in the end.

The League of RI Businesses is a new Rhode Island political action group that is representing itself as moderate and “pro-business”. However, when I pressed the group's founder on Ocean State Media (PBS), his political positions were anything but middle-of-the-road.

The common refrain in communities has been to emphasize the importance of keeping a town’s “rural character.” But affordable housing mandates and the need to grow tax revenue amid a cohort of aging homeowners has towns like Hopkinton, to consider wider development districts. buff.ly/OpU4cPP
