The Public Record
Seth Michael Magaziner is an American politician and member of the Democratic Party, currently serving as the General Treasurer of Rhode Island since January 6, 2015. In this role, he is responsible for managing the state's finances and investments, overseeing the state pension system, and ensuring fiscal responsibility. Magaziner has focused on issues such as economic development, public investment, and financial literacy during his tenure.
Building off of the success, Rhode Island is currently pursuing an additional procurement for offshore wind that will more than double this capacity and put our state on the path to 100 percent renewable energy by the end of this decade.
Hear me now, when it comes to racist and antisemitic and anti-government violence, there are not fine people on both sides.
The Inflation Reduction Act will enable more offshore wind and clean energy projects to come on-line and get us closer to the Biden administration's goal of deploying 30 gigawatts of offshore wind capacity by 2030.
One of the greatest threats to our Nation's homeland security is the rise of far right and racially motivated violent extremism.
Rhode Island stands as proof that clean energy development can be done in a thoughtful way that incorporates community input, protects industry, and safeguards local wildlife.
In Rhode Island, we know that a swift transition to clean energy is possible, that it can save costs for rate payers on their electric bills, reduce emissions, and create jobs.
The former President did not say that this was a reasonable step to protect U.S. service members and our Afghan allies; he, in fact criticized President Biden for moving back the deadline.
The Honorable Seth Magaziner, a Representative in Congress From the State of Rhode Island, and Ranking Member, Subcommittee on Counterterrorism, Law Enforcement, and Intelligence:
accountability does not begin in January 2021. There is a larger story here that if we are going to draw lessons for the future and how to do better, we have to be mindful of.
The fact is that it was Donald Trump's Taliban deal that set the chaos in motion.
We must also focus on the fact that many terror groups have begun using the internet to systematically radicalize individuals already living in the United States.
As Members of the Homeland Security Committee, we have a duty to protect the United States homeland and the people who live here from all threats, foreign and domestic.
When it became clear that Afghan nationals who risked their own lives to help the United States in our mission were not being protected from Taliban retribution, was there ever any indication from the Trump administration that they were…
we explore all options for monitoring and eliminating terrorist threats emanating from Afghanistan for whatever means are at our disposal.
It is vital that terrorist organizations like AQ and ISIS, which have been diminished due to the sacrifice of American service members, our NATO allies, and other partners, never regain the capability to launch a large-scale attack on the…
These falsehoods are being amplified by irresponsible politicians and fringe media figures, many of whom gladly take financial support from the oil and gas industry at the same time.
That Trump-Taliban deal did not include a comprehensive cease-fire, did not include any plan for providing protection for Afghan nationals...
Restoring the North Atlantic right whale populations requires a coordinated effort between the Federal Government and industry stakeholders.
Congress can do and must do more to help prevent unnecessary whale deaths and support the industries trying to comply with regulation.
I will take that as a sign that the brinkmanship over raising the debt ceiling will end in the interest of national security, although I am not optimistic.
Let me just say the reason that so many of us are concerned about domestic violence, violent extremism, is because over the last 5 years, more Americans have been killed by racially and ethnically motivated mass casualty events than by…
We must learn from the withdrawal and ensure that in the future when the U.S.
Unfortunately, there are some people who have been using the deaths of right whales to push a political agenda by falsely claiming that offshore wind development has some link to right whale deaths when the evidence clearly shows no such…
Thank you for the opportunity to offer testimony to the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee and elevate Rhode Islanders' priorities as you prepare to reauthorize federal aviation programs.
This year, I signed an appropriation letter asking for $10 million in additional funding over FY23 levels for North Atlantic right whale conservation.
