    January 13, 2014 Richard K. Sullivan, Jr., Secretary Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs 100 Cambridge Street Suite 900 Boston, MA 02114 CC: Members of Coal Plant Revitalization Task Force Re: Planning for Energy and Economic Transition Dear Secretary Sullivan: The Bay State and the Ocean State share far more than a border. Regional economic growth and struggles, workforce challenges, and power decisions affect the health and wellbeing of residents of communities from Rhode Island to Southeastern Massachusetts, Boston and beyond. From natural beauty to marine commerce, our waters provide enormous benefits and opportunities. Our public and private transportation networks send people to work across state lines. We share hubs of innovative technology and academic brilliance, strong university systems and a growing clean technology sector. And now more than ever, we share a need to revitalize old, industrial communities with industries of the future. We write today because we see great urgency and great opportunity as changes in our energy grid force a rethinking of power decisions. We thank the Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs for stewarding a deep examination of coal plant transition, its impacts and the policies needed to support the growth of thriving communities. As representatives of neighboring districts, we have grave concerns about the continued burning of coal for power, and see great promise in planning for a healthier and more resilient future. What choices we make today for our power grid and our economies will affect many, for many years. Each policy, transmission line, pipeline or redeveloped plant is part of a large and shifting infrastructure, revisions to a 1950s and 1960s energy grid.

  • Legislative Campaign Finances
    SURVEY OF CAMPAIGN FINANCES IN THE 2014 ELECTIONS FOR THE RHODE ISLAND GENERAL ASSEMBLY © New Harbor Group, 2015 Survey of Campaign Finances in the 2014 Elections for the Rhode Island General Assembly The attached document summarizes campaign spending by candidates for the Rhode Island General Assembly during the 2014 election year. The figures in the document are drawn from campaign finance records (Campaign Contributions and Expenditures Report, CCER-1) on file at the State Board of Elections for the calendar year 2014. The document was compiled by Nathan McGuire (Boston College, Class of 2016), Kate Mancosh (Furman University, Class of 2017), and Matthew Romano (Boston College, Class of 2018). Candidates for office are ranked by the amount of money raised for a campaign (“Raised”), and the amount of money spent (“Spent”) on a campaign. In addition to names and numerical ranking, the report includes data for two other points. The column titled “Other Resources” reflects funds available to a candidate for his/her campaign that were not raised during 2014. Figures in this column include money on hand prior to January 1, 2014, personal loans to a campaign, returns of deposit money for public utilities, and other sources of campaign revenue. The last column for Senators and Representatives is titled “Opponents.” In this column, opposition is characterized in three categories, as follows: N = No Opponent O = An opponent who received less than one-third, or 33.3%, of the vote in the election. C = A “credible” opponent who received more than one-third, or 33.3%, of the vote in the election.
