David Cicilline: “We lose the opportunity to show people all over the world the power of democracy.”

You can’t have a statewide school funding system that is fair to everyone — that’s equitable, that covers all costs of education, so that every student, no matter where they live, is treated the same, and every taxpayer treated the same —…

We could say that we support a mission that this war doesn't spread to NATO.

The difference is you’ll be increasing education funding and distributing it through a formula that’s fair and equitable, and ensure that every student in Rhode Island has access to what they need to be successful.

What we’ve said to the General Assembly is you’re going to have to have a transition plan that takes that into account.
