Cranston Forward

Cranston residents show up & speak up: let the City Council know you support zoning code changes that will help make Cranston more affordable and livable while expanding our tax base!

Imagine you are the Mayor of the 2nd largest city in RI, and after submitting a catastrophic budget with massive tax increases, you leave for a golf trip to Florida and South Carolina for a week, and upon return your first reply to anything is this.

He scapegoats our teachers and students, and says they need to take a cut now, and that's in fact what we the residents of Cranston should be advocating for.

This is the not the behavior of a mature adult. A leader ready to get us out of this crisis.

This is quite literally the Mayor lashing out at the people he is elected to represent.

Also point of fact, he is already effectively cutting the schools in his initial budget proposal.
