Tidewater Landing Project Statement

Here is a statement from Zach Hurwitz, Independent Candidate from Rhode Island, regarding the approval of the Tidewater Project last night-

“Especially now, as we head into a possible recession with record-breaking inflation, priorities must be taken into consideration on where and how we spend our State's money. Providence County, where Pawtucket is located, has the highest food insecurity rate in Rhode Island. Almost 20% of RI households worry about having enough food to put on the table. The revitalization of the Pawtucket Riverfront is important, but we must find a balance in making sure that all Rhode Islanders don’t worry about where their next meal is coming from.”
