What does successful civics education look like in RI? Hear from @hillaryvlima.bsky.social why inspiring young people and giving them civic experiences—inside classrooms and at the State House—matters. 🎧 "Generation Citizen: Inspiring NextGen” linktr.ee/rwulaw #RhodeIsland #Law401 #Civics

A morning well spent at International Charter School in Pawtucket where 5th graders hosted/moderated a mayoral debate. Students prepared thoughtful questions around housing, education, safety, ICE, parks, the arts, and more. Every community should be doing events like this with youth at the center!

An inspiring evening at the kick off event for the Connecticut Civic Learning Coalition. An added bonus for me being held at the Old State House as someone who loves visiting historic civic spaces like this.

Welp, there goes my bracket. I had Duke winning it all. Either Boozer brother just had to hold onto the ball or dribble and draw a floor foul. UCONN was down by NINETEEN. #MarchMadness

I'll be at the RI State House on Thursday afternoon with the Rhode Island Civic Learning Coalition to advocate on behalf of categorical funding legislation to support the civic education mandate in K-12 schools. Join us and grab a fun giveaway!

Testified yesterday at the RI State House in support of S2016! 🏛️⚓️ In my new role with Generation Citizen & the RI Civic Learning Coalition, I’m pushing for media literacy to be a core part of our K-12 civics education. Next up: RI Civic Learning Week starting March 9! 🗳️📖

Listening to WEEI this morn. about the situation in Foxboro around funding the $7M public safety tab for FIFA was infuriating. Municipal govts are not for-profit entities that just have that extra cash lying around. It's meant to be spent on services that benefit the community and reflect its voice.

Civics education is a necessity, not a luxury. but an unfunded mandate is a recipe for failure. 🏛️🍎 In my new op-ed for @rhodeislandcurrent.com, I discuss why RI needs to back this effort with real resources. We must do better for our students and our schools. rhodeislandcurrent.com/2026/02/17/w...

This is a no brainer. However, we need these committees to improve how they message to the public, who are still so attached to their neighborhood schools and see regionalization or merging as a threat. At the end of the day, it's about maximizing the local dollars that municipalities 1/2

Five Republicans voted against Trump as U.S. Senate voted 52-47 to advance a resolution curbing Pres. Trump’s Venezuela war powers. More work remains, but this is a step in the right direction.

Five years already since January 6. Undoubtedly an insurrection. Full stop. I know there is fatigue around talking about our national discourse right now, but we need to keep conversations about events/individuals that threaten to dismantle our country based on narcissism, gaslighting, & bigotry.

And oh btw, it's about more than four walls and a roof. If someone is homeless, it's usually not because they want to be, but because they have barriers to necessary supports like healthcare, transportation, income, or education. You can't address the housing crisis without addressing these, too.

030

Hillary Lima @hillaryvlima.bsky.social · 06/01/2026

Maybe a hot take (?): the housing crisis isn't just about more housing. It's also about the right TYPE of housing. Part of the issue is that seniors who are still in single family homes they raised their families in have nowhere to go to age in place that better suits their needs, 1/2

If Stafford gets MVP this year by virtue of this potentially being his last season & it's for the feels of a nice career send off, that is so soft and weakens the award. The rationale that it's only Maye's 2nd season & he has time to get it later is garbage. Long football careers are no guarantee.

010

Hillary Lima @hillaryvlima.bsky.social · 05/01/2026

A reminder that MVP is not meant to go to the player with the best stat line. It's about what V stands for...VALUABLE. Stafford's offense is stacked and there's a lot of game manager QBs that could make things happen there. Maye is THE straw that stirs the drink in New England 1/2

Miami should really move on from Tua. And Tua should move on from football. Tua's decision making was a majority of the problem this season for them.
