I grew up fishing with my dad and golden retriever Kelly. We loved going exploring and getting sprayed by the waves. I want to make sure we protect and expand public access to the shoreline in RI because our whole community should enjoy it—whether you’re swimming, fishing, or making a living or a home here. Here are a couple of initiatives I want to work on:

• Sponsor and pass H-8055 to ensure that the public always has passage along the shoreline (high tide + 6 feet)
• Work with the Attorney General on guidelines for legal and illegal signage (for example, we don’t want “Private Property” signs right next to public rights of way)
• Ensure that CRMC has adequate funding to enforce signage rules and make sure that public rights of way are clearly marked and accessible.
