RIPR looks at state and federal policy issues
that affect life here in the Ocean State. Each report focuses on
particular policy areas of interest. Future issues will examine
controversial aspects of environmental policy, health care, property
tax reform, and education spending. The intention is to look at
action rather than talk. We aspire to be a news source that never
attends news conferences, where little of substance is ever said.
