2017 Policy Priorities
What can Rhode Island do, now, to support people living in poverty, whatever happens – or does not happen – at the federal level?
1) Protect the no-fare bus pass for low-income seniors and people with disabilities.
2) Support safe roads by allowing undocumented Rhode Islanders to obtain driver’s licenses.
3) Help struggling working families by raising the minimum wage and increasing the EITC.
4) Expand access to quality early childhood care and education.
