AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

FDA & Fisheries: Rhode Island Rep. Seth Magaziner says the FDA has approved selling scup as “golden sea bream,” aiming to make the Atlantic fish more appealing to consumers and open new markets for local fishers. State Budget: The RI House advanced a revised FY2027 budget totaling $15.2B, keeping a millionaire’s tax but spreading the 3% income over $1M change across three years, alongside renewed debate over adding an inspector general. Offshore Wind Legal Fight: New York and a coalition including Rhode Island are suing the Trump administration over a roughly $1B TotalEnergies deal to end offshore wind leases, arguing it’s “illegal” and could raise costs. Higher Ed & AI: Bryant University and Rhode Island College hosted a second AI Summit focused on how AI should reshape higher education, curriculum, ethics, and employer needs. Consumer & Safety: Raymour & Flanigan recalled 10,400+ powered sofas and recliners after reports of smoking and fires. Local Infrastructure: Legislation moved to create a Crook Point Bridge Authority to take over the long-stalled Providence–East Providence railroad bridge. Community & Culture: Providence schools leaders defended progress ahead of the return to local control on July 1, while the 2026 RI Day of Portugal Parade named MJ Albuquerque Martins and John Furtado as grand marshals.
