Event Details
Join EPI, legislative champions Rep. David Morales and Sen. Tiara Mack, and the Equity Impact Campaign on Wednesday, April 30, at 3 PM in the State House Library for a presentation by EPI Racial Justice Policy Analyst Hector Perez-Aponte, followed by a press conference on the release of EPI's 2025 Budget Equity Review and efforts to advance equity and justice in Rhode Island.
HB-XXXX (bill number still TBD) and SB-805 would establish a pilot program that would incorporate Equity Impact Statements and an Equity Review of the Governor’s proposed budget into the legislative process.
Disparities have created systemic barriers to opportunity and success for many Rhode Islanders, and the need for equity-centered policies has never been more urgent. Join us at the State House Library on April 30, and together, let's push for equity right here and right now!
