Since the Goldman Act was enacted there has been a decline in the number of American children abducted overseas and that is a good news story.
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.
The Goldman Act empowered the State Department to seek the return of American children, yet, the department, in my opinion, has not used the full of range of tools as Congress has intended.
Democrats have put forth a range of solutions to prevent gun violence, to support law enforcement, and to solve crimes.
