Friends & Neighbors - this first week of 2026 has been brutal for our country and the people in it. It's more important than ever that we come together -- we fight back, but also lead with love and a vision for what we can build together. I'll always have your back.

City Councilwoman Mary Kay Harris was initially against having a "safe injection site" in her South Providence neighborhood Over time, she changed her mind. Then, tragedy struck her own family. She shared her story with me ahead of the center's opening: www.bostonglobe.com/2024/12/10/m...

‘She would’ve been alive’: Opening of safe injection site in R.I. is personal for councilwoman who once opposed it - The Boston Globe

A councilwoman changed her mind on allowing a center for people to use illicit drugs to open in her neighborhood. Then family tragedy struck.
