Lisa from North Kingstown had a great idea: help schools buy fresh food from local fishermen and farmers — giving kids healthy meals while supporting local workers.
I spoke with her about it for this week’s Good Idea of the Week.

The situation in Gaza continues to be horrific, and aid must be urgently surged.
I am proud that Rhode Island is stepping up, with Edesia Nutrition preparing to ship lifesaving food aid to children in Gaza.

Is anyone even surprised that Trump & Republicans’ tax bill primarily benefits the wealthy at the expense of working people?
The non-partisan CBO confirms it.
It's time to repeal these handouts to billionaires and put money back in the pockets of the middle class.
Members of the National Guard and Reserves answer the call to duty, but aren’t always given the credit they deserve.
My bill, the National Guard and Reserve Student Loan Fairness Act, will ensure that every day of service counts toward their student loan forgiveness.
People are asking me what is really going on with redistricting in states like Texas and California.
Here’s my answer.
Too many warehouse workers are pushed to their limits by unrealistic quotas and impossible demands.
I’m backing the Warehouse Worker Protection Act to ban dangerous quotas, require transparency and protect breaks so no one risks their health to keep their job.
Today, I met with Rhode Island labor leaders to discuss the fight for fair wages, safer workplaces, and better conditions for all workers.
When we stand up for working people, we strengthen the state.
Today, we cut the ribbon on the new Air National Guard headquarters at Quonset.
This state-of-the-art facility will serve those who serve us, with improved medical care, mission readiness, and more.
Thank you to the Airmen for their dedication to Rhode Island and the country.
Social Security changed America for the better, lifting countless seniors out of poverty.
On its 90th birthday, we can commit to making Social Security last for another century by making sure the wealthiest in our country pay their fair share into the system.
The cost of living is too high, and corporate price gouging is a major reason why.
I’m proud to support the Stop Price Gouging Act to crack down on unfair practices that drive up prices and stop monopolies in the food industry.
It is time to put working people first.
Veterans deserve the best mental health care when they return home.
Today, we celebrated building upgrades at VA Providence which will expand and modernize their facilities, improving access to high-quality mental health services for those who served.
Tariffs = taxes on the things you buy at the store.
If we want to make it easier for working people to keep up with the cost of living, we need to cancel Trump’s tariffs now.

Today I attended the Dominican Breakfast with LG Sabina Matos and leaders from the Dominican-American community.
This event is a proud celebration of heritage, family, and the strength of the Dominican community in Rhode Island.
Democrats need a positive agenda that puts working people first, with policies that support the middle class and those striving to join it.
I had a great conversation with @alzassociation.bsky.social RI today.
So many lives are touched by Alzheimer’s disease, and to end this disease we need to fund more research and more support for caregivers.
Beach days. Road trips. Time with family.
Every worker deserves a summer break.
But the U.S. is the only developed country that does not guarantee paid vacation for workers. My PTO Act gives full-time workers 2 weeks of paid leave, everyone deserves a break.
Need a passport? We’ve got you covered.
Join my team for a Passport Fair with the State Dept. on Sept. 13 in Cranston. There, you can apply for a passport, get your photos taken, get expert help, and more.

Service members who were awarded Purple Hearts deserve the utmost respect for their sacrifice for our country.
On this Purple Heart Day, we honor their service to protect our freedoms.
After months of advocacy, we have secured a crucial victory: Edesia Nutrition’s life-saving food aid will be on its way to save the lives of malnourished children soon.
We will remain vigilant to ensure that there are no more delays or disruptions.
