Against
Limited
Government
This bill expands the type of jobs that require an electrical contractor's license to include installing and servicing lighting, control of electrical devices, handling and removal for installation or reinstallation of all electrical equipment, and more.

H 7019House 20241x

Forcing Taxpayers to Promote Labor Unions and State-Approved Apprenticeships by Establishing a "Workplace Readiness Week" in All Public High Schools.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill requires all public high schools, including charter schools, to annually observe a "Workplace Readiness Week" by providing students information on "their rights as workers" and specifies the topics that must be covered. Under the bill, schools must cover local, state, and federal laws, the labor movement's role in "winning the protections and benefits described in law," and introduce state-approved apprenticeship programs.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7032House 20242x

Weakening Oversight of Government Procurement by Increasing State and Locality Small Purchase Limits.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill increases the maximum state and locality small purchase limits from $10,000 to $25,000 for construction projects and from $5,000 to $10,000 for all other state and municipal purchases.

Weakening Public Safety by Allowing Felons to Expunge Their Misdemeanor Crimes.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill further expands the state's expungement policy to now allow convicted felons to have up to six misdemeanor offenses expunged from their criminal record. Previously, an individual could expunge up to six misdemeanor offenses only if they have not been convicted of a felony.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7064House 20242x

Making Permanent Outdoor Dining by Establishing a Legal and Regulatory Framework Protecting Restaurants from Overreaching Localities.

Supports
Limited
Government
This bill establishes a regulatory framework for outdoor dining in the state, allowing restaurants to offer outdoor dining if they follow the Rhode Island safety codes and regulations. While the bill does allow localities to limit outdoor dining on public property, limit outdoor dining capacity, and require barriers, it restricts a municipality from outright banning outdoor dining. Additionally, a locality is prohibited from limiting the time of year outdoor dining may be offered, restricting hours of operation, or requiring new parking standards. This bill serves as a step in the right direction to protect business operations and promote competition within the restaurant industry.
Support is the Limited Government Position.
H 7091House 20241x

Ensuring Government Control Over Healthcare by Refusing to Enforce a Repeal of Obamacare Annual and Lifetime Limits.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill is designed to circumvent enforcement of a potential repeal of Obamacare's prohibition on annual and lifetime limits. Specifically, the bill removes the authority of the health insurance commissioner to enforce any act of Congress, or any decision of a federal court, invalidating or repealing the prohibition of annual lifetime limits on health insurance in the state.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7127House 20243x

Advancing a Government Take-Over of the Private Sector Retirement System Through the Establishment of a Public Retirement Savings Program.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill establishes the Rhode Island Retirement Savings Program Act, forcing private employers who do not currently offer a retirement plan to provide access to the secure choice retirement program. Under the bill, employees will be automatically enrolled and must opt-out. The private sector and businesses are best equipped to determine and implement their own retirement plans.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7129House 20241x

Weakening Transparency and Parental Control Over Education by Allowing Changes to School Boards Meeting Agendas After the Published Notice.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill allows school committees to add items not appearing in the public notice to their agendas for purposes of discussion. The bill requires the revised agenda to be filed with the secretary of state and posted on the district website at least 48 hours in advance of the meeting. This measure weakens the ability of parents to be informed on school board meetings, such information is critical for voters considering how large an impact school board decisions have on students and society.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7212House 20241x

Strengthening Individual Liberties by Permitting "Human Composting" as an Alternative to Burial and Cremation.

Supports

Support is the Limited Government Position.
H 7225House 20243x

Fueling Out-of-Control Spending Through a $13.963 Billion Budget Funding Affordable Housing Bonds, Higher Education, and Increased Medicaid Reimbursement Rates.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill implements a $13.963 billion budget for fiscal year 2025. This budget is chock full of frivolous spending, including raising Medicaid reimbursement rates, a $120 million affordable housing bond, and a $21 million increase in higher education funding. The state must pursue every available avenue to reign in its out-of-control spending, as, when coupled with the over $185 trillion federal liabilities, represents the greatest existential threat facing this country.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7225 (Article 2)House 20242x

Increasing Government Dependency Through a List of Frivolous Funds and Programs Outside the Proper Scope of Government.

Against
Limited
Government
Article 2 of the budget bill for fiscal year 2025. This section creates a litany of new funds and programs, including a medical debt relief program, a fund for the executive climate change coordinating council, and a fund for electric vehicle charging stations. This measure is merely designed to grow the size and scope of government and increase government dependency.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7225 (Article 3)(Nardone Amd.)House 20241x

Promoting Transparency and Government Oversight by Establishing the Inspector General to Detect Fraud and Waste of Public Funds.

Against
Limited
Government
The Nardone amendment to Article 3 of the budget bill for fiscal year 2025. This amendment creates the office of inspector general, an independent administrative agency charged with preventing and detecting fraud and waste of public funds. Combatting fraud and waste of taxpayer funds is critical to maintaining government integrity.
Support is the Limited Government Position.
H 7225 (Article 5)House 20242x

Growing the Size and Scope of Government and Indebting Taxpayers by Seeking Approval for Millions in Bonds for Higher Education and Affordable Housing.

Against
Limited
Government
Article 5 of the budget bill for fiscal year 2025.

The section also seeks issuance of $10 million in bonds for cultural art and performance centers.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7225 (Article 7)House 20242x

Expanding Cronyism and Carve-Outs to Government-Favored Industries by Increasing Grants to Small Businesses and Extending Numerous Tax Credits.

Against
Limited
Government
Article 7 of the budget bill for fiscal year 2025. This article contains various crony provisions, such as expanding the Rhode Island Small Business Program by creating a phase 3 commercialization grant and increasing matching fund grants for Phase 1 and 2 from $150,000 to $300,000. Phase 3 maximum grants are set at $500,000 to eligible businesses. Additionally, the article increases reimbursement to eligible companies for pay rates from a total of $3,000 to $6,500 per intern in a bioscience or engineering internship program. The article also extends the sunset dates of various tax credits and incentives.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7225 (Article 9)House 20242x

Increasing Government Dependency by Expanding the Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) Plan and Increasing Eligibility Under Medicaid's Qualified Individuals Program.

Against
Limited
Government
Article 9 of the budget bill for fiscal year 2025. This article contains various provisions regarding medical assistance, most notably providing $34.7 million to all participating hospitals of the Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) plan, a program that uses hospital license fees to make payments to hospitals that serve a large number of Medicaid beneficiaries and other low-income patients. The state then receives federal matching funds for payments. Additionally, the bill grants the secretary of the executive office of health and human services authority to pursue and implement any waiver and state plan amendments, and/or changes to the department's rules, regulations, and procedures to implement income disregards for the Qualified Individuals Medicare Savings Program to increase eligibility up to 185% of the federal poverty level.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7246House 20241x

Threatening Businesses with Overreaching Regulations and Higher Costs by Requiring Climate Change be Considered in Economic Development Planning.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill requires climate change, sea-level rise, and coastal resiliency to be considered in the strategic plan for economic development policy set forth by the Economic Development Planning Council. Instead of attempting to centrally plan the economy, lawmakers should reduce costly regulations to allow the free market to provide greater job and business growth. This measure is designed to advance a politicized environmental agenda, creating further barriers to economic development spearheaded by a group of unelected bureaucrats.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7264House 20241x

Hiking Auto Insurance Premiums by Mandating Insurers Allow After-Market Parts in Vehicle Repairs.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill prohibits auto insurance companies from refusing to use after-market parts that are greater than 48 months and less than 72 months from the date of the manufacture, provided the repairer has written consent from the owner of the vehicle.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7303House 20241x

Fueling Unequal Application of the Law by Deeming All School Employees as "Public Officials" for the Crime of Threatening a Public Official.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill expands the definition of a "public official" to include all school employees regarding the criminal prohibition against making threats to public officials. While the underlying law is meant to ensure public officials are not swayed due to fears of threats or violence against themselves or their families, this measure promotes unequal application of the law through an overly broad definition of "public official."
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7373House 20242x

Growing Government Overreach by Implementing Storage Requirements for Firearms in Residences.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill requires that firearms be stored in secured or locked containers or be equipped with a tamper-resistant lock or other safety device, subject to fines and/or imprisonment for violations. Additionally, the bill expands what firearms are required to be sold with a trigger lock to include rifles and shotguns, and mandates that firearm dealers post information signs regarding secure firearm storage.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7532House 20241x

Reducing Employment Opportunities for Caregivers and Hiking Costs for Families by Expanding Minimum Wage Laws to Include Domestic Workers.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill removes the minimum wage exemption for domestic workers in the Rhode Island Payment of Wages Act. Previously, domestic workers were not considered "employees" under the RIPWA and were only guaranteed the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour. Rhode Island minimum wage is currently $14 per hour and is set to increase to $15 per hour in 2025. Domestic workers typically receive many other non-traditional benefits such as housing, food, transportation access, etc. This bill will likely result in many families no longer being able to financially support caregivers for children, aging parents, etc.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7617House 20241x

Further Threatening Businesses with Higher Costs by Requesting the Executive Climate Council Report Benchmarking and Building Performance Standards.

Against
Limited
Government
This resolution requests a report by the executive climate coordinating council (EC4) on benchmarking and building performance standards. The report must include a summary of the State's building sector emissions, an inventory of properties that would be subject to benchmarking requirements, the estimated costs for compliance with benchmarking, and more. This measure is merely the first step towards stringent environmental regulations that ultimately drive-up consumer costs.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7662House 20242x

Weakening Election Integrity by Allowing Non-Affiliated Voters to Engage in Rigging Party Primaries.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill allows non-affiliated party voters to vote in party primaries, without becoming an affiliated party voter. This measure enables individuals who intentionally vote in a party's primary so that the less viable or principled candidate is nominated.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7830House 20242x

Providing the Attorney General Overreaching and Duplicative New Powers to Pursue Civil Actions Against Businesses Without a Court Order.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill allows the attorney general to seek an injuction, restitution, damages, and penalties of up to $10k per violation and/or the cancellation of a certificate to do business in the state in response to "repeated illegal acts, or… persistent illegality in the carrying on, conducting or transaction of business or governmental activity." The bill empowers the AG to take proof and make a determination of the relevant facts and to issue civil investigate demands without a court order. While any business found to commit a criminal act should be held accountable under the law, this measure instead provides the AG with overly broad authority that conflicts with existing laws and overlaps powers with other state agencies.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7837House 20241x

Subjecting Independent Contractors to Further Regulatory Burdens by Requiring Submission of Separate Notices for Each Entity.

Against
Limited
Government
Under previous law, independent contractors were required to file a designation notice with the director of labor and training annually. This bill additionally requires independent contractors to file a form annually for each hiring entity that retains their services. Additionally, the bill withdraws the designation as an independent contractor if the person fails to submit an annual filing after receipt of a 20-day notice issued by the director for failure to file an annual designation.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7894House 20241x

Reducing Accountability by Removing Attorney General's Oversight of Interlocal Agreements.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill weakens oversight of interlocal agreements by removing a provision requiring all interlocal agreements be submitted to the attorney general for approval. Under the provision, the attorney general may disapprove of an agreement if it is not in proper form and in compliance with state laws.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7905House 20241x

Socializing the Cost of Higher Education by Further Expanding the Higher Education Opportunity Incentive Grant.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill expands the Youth and Families' Higher Education Opportunity Incentive Grant, extending what the grant covers to include books, academic supports, transportation, food, and housing. The bill also expands eligibility for the grant from individuals who were in state custody for at least 24 months under the age of 18 to youth that were in foster care in the state for at least 6 months (non-consecutive) on or after their 14th birthday. College and university-level education should be funded through user fees (i.e., tuition) by those who wish to pursue their selected career path. These enormous costs should not be imposed on individuals who elect to pursue activities other than higher education, such as those who start their own businesses or work in the trades.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 8059House 20243x

Infringing Private Contracting Rights and Reducing Employment Opportunities by Banning Noncompetition Agreements.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill prohibits nearly all noncompetition agreements in the state, except for those entered into as part of a sale of a business. This bill imposes a new government mandate that infringes on the private contracting rights of employers and employees.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 8180House 20242x

Worsening Cronyism by Expanding the Motion Picture Production Tax Credits Through a Broadened Definition of State-Certified Production Costs.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill, in regard to motion picture production tax credits, clarifies that all costs of goods used and services performed in Rhode Island shall qualify as state-certified productions costs. Additionally, the bill requires vendors providing goods and services in the state to a motion picture production company to comply with state laws, such as registering with the secretary of state. Lastly, the bill stipulates that vendors from out-of-state will not disqualify a motion picture production company's eligibility for the tax credit.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 8217House 20242x

Growing Government to Regulate "Non-Emergency Medical Transportation" and Impose New Mandates on Transportation Services.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill establishes a new regulatory framework for companies and drivers providing non-emergency medical transportation services through coordination with the state's health and human service agencies. This bill further grows government power and the regulatory state.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
S 2036House 20241x

Hiking Rhode Island Gas and Electricity Costs by Extending Utility Termination Moratorium by Two More Weeks.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill directs the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) to extend the utility termination moratorium for gas and electricity from April 15 to May 1 of each year, with discretion to response to emergencies or customer needs.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
S 2227House 20241x

Weakening Public Safety by Allowing Expungement of Felonies Reclassified as Misdemeanor Crimes.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill further expands application of the state's expungement law, allowing for prior felonies to be expunged if the crimes were subsequently reclassified as misdemeanors (even if the crime was a felony at the time it was committed).
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
S 2714House 20241x

Growing Government Dependency by Forcing All Hospital to Screen Uninsured Patients for Medicaid Eligibility.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill further grows government dependency by requiring all hospitals to screen uninsured patients for eligibility for Medicare and Medicaid. The bill also creates a pilot program permitting hospitals to provide acute care services for a covered person outside of the hospital's licensed facility.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
S 2780House 20242x

Weakening Election Integrity by Extending Mail Ballot Drop Boxes from 20 Days Before an Election to 35 Days.

Against
Limited
Government
This bill requires mail ballot drop boxes to be opened 35 days (previously 20 days) prior to election day, and 20 days prior to special elections. This measure merely extends the timeframe for "ballot misplacement" and "ballot harvesting" to occur surrounding ballot boxes, which undermine the integrity of our nation's electoral process. Lawmakers should instead eliminate all drop boxes to ensure free and fair elections.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7057House 20241x

Putting Taxpayer Funds at Risk Through Government-Approved Discrimination by Waiving Public Project Bonding Requirements for Minority- or Women-Owned Businesses.

Neutral
Rhode Island law requires every person, before being awarded a state contract more than $150,000, must furnish a bond of that person to the state in a sum not less than 50% of the contract price. Previously, waiver of the bonding requirements was expressly prohibited. This bill allows the state to waive the bonding requirement for minority business enterprises or women owned businesses for a public works project up to $250,000. The original bonding requirements acted as a protection if the contractor can't complete the project. Waiving the protection based on unrelated characteristics such as race and gender merely places taxpayer resources at risk.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7197House 20241x

Hiking Health Insurance Premiums by Increasing Mandated Hearing Aid Coverage from $1,500 to $1,750.

Neutral
This bill increases mandated insurance coverage for hearing aids from $1,500 to $1,750, per ear, for all people regardless of age. Each and every health insurance mandate or price control on co-payments prevents an individual from selecting a plan with just basic or customized coverages to fit their specific needs. As a result, health insurers are forced to only offer costly plans loaded with coverages that most individuals do not need.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7435House 20242x

Growing Government to Now Regulate "Pet Insurance" and Impose New Mandates on Policy Conditions and Sales.

Neutral
This bill establishes a new legal and regulatory framework for pet insurance in the state. This includes disclosure requirements for policies, allowed policy conditions, and mandating that policyholders have the right to return the policy within 15 days of its receipt and have the premium refunded if the applicant is not satisfied "for any reason."
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7506House 20241x

Hiking Auto Insurance Premiums Through Mandatory Uninsured Motorist Coverage by Repealing Allowed Exemptions.

Neutral
This bill removes an exception to where insured individuals can reduce uninsured motorist (UM) coverage to zero if they are purchasing the minimum bodily injury limits and sign an approved advisory notice. The bill also removes language allowed insureds to reject UM coverage for property damage loss.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7686House 20242x

Growing Government Dependency by Increasing Cash Benefits and Disallowing Termination for Failure to Work Under the Rhode Island Works Program.

Neutral
This bill amends the Rhode Island works program to expand eligibility for pregnant persons, disallow termination of benefits for failing to meet work requirements, and limit monetary sanctions. Additionally, the bill increases monthly cash benefits by changing what is determined as income for eligible families and increasing the payment standard itself to $510 (previously $425) for the first person, $191 (previously $159) for the second person, $164 (previously $137) for the third person, and $125 (previously $104) for remaining individuals.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
H 7756House 20241x

Further Growing Unelected Bureaucracy Through the Creation of a Solar Advisory Taskforce.

Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
S 2121House 20241x

Hiking Employer Costs and Reducing Employment Opportunities by Increasing Maximum Temporary Caregiver Benefits from 6 to 8 Weeks.

Neutral
Under current law, employees are allowed to take up to 6 weeks of job-protected leave and receive partial wage replacement from the Rhode Island Department of Labor and Training (DLT) to bond with a newborn or child newly placed for adoption or foster care, or to care for a family member. This bill increases the maximum temporary caregiver benefit from 6 to 8 weeks over a period of two years. Additionally, the bill increases Temporary Disability Insurance dependent's allowance from $10 each week to $20 each week, or 7% of the individual's benefit rate.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
S 2152House 20243x

Advancing Government Overreach Through a Ban on Products Containing PFAS Substances.

Neutral
This bill enacts the "Consumer PFAS Ban Act of 2024," prohibiting the intentional addition of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in covered products offered for sale or manufactured in the state. The federal government already monitors PFAS and this measure will place significant burdens on manufacturers in the state, ultimately restricting consumer choice.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
S 2189House 20242x

Infringing Private Contracting Rights by Increasing Government Mandate Requiring Notice Prior to a Rent Increase for Residential Units from 30 Days to 60 Days.

Neutral
This bill increases existing requirements that landlords give residential tenants prior notice of any rent increase. Landlords must give tenants 60 days' notice (previously 30 days) of any rent increase and 120 days' notice (previously 60 days) for tenants over the age of 62.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
S 2379House 20241x

Increasing Employment Barriers for Lactation Counselors Through an Unnecessary Licensing Framework.

Neutral
This bill establishes a framework for the licensure of lactation counselors, including requirements for renewal, expiration, termination, refusal, and revocation of licenses.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
S 2415House 20241x

Weaponizing Government to Block Development of an Oyster Farm by Prohibiting Commercial Activities in Sapowet Marsh.

Neutral
This bill is designed to kill an oyster farm that two brothers sought to establish along the Sakonnet River. Specifically, the bill bans commercial activities in the land of the established Sapowet Marsh Management Area and allows the department of environmental management to promote recreation and enter into leases for agricultural use of the land.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
S 2621House 20241x

Increasing Overreaching Regulations of the Nursing Home Industry Through the Creation of an Ineffectual "Workforce Standards Board".

Neutral
This bill creates the Nursing Home Workforce Standards Board, a thirteen-member advisory board tasked with advising state leaders on the condition of the nursing home industry, recommend working standards and minimum compensation, and propose new nursing standards. This measure merely represents an effort to grow government interference in the nursing home industry, which often results in one-size-fits-all mandates that drive up nursing home costs. Lawmakers should instead empower the free market by making nursing home care more affordable and accessible by reducing regulations and other anti-competitive measures.
Oppose is the Limited Government Position.
S 2643House 20241x

Infringing Private Contracts Through a New Government Mandate Prohibiting Landlords from Charging Convenience Fees and Requiring Notice of All Mandatory Fees.

Neutral
