The Trump Department of Justice has filed a federa The Trump Department of Justice has filed a federal lawsuit against Rhode Island Secretary of State Gregg Amore after he refused to turn over the state’s complete voter registration list, a request the DOJ says is required under federal law to ensure voter rolls do not contain ineligible voters, including noncitizens. The DOJ first asked Amore on Sept. 8 to provide a “current electronic copy” of the statewide voter list, including names, dates of birth, addresses, and driver’s license or Social Security information. The agency said the records would be protected under the Privacy Act. Amore rejected the request a week later, claiming state law prevents him from releasing personally identifiable information. Attorney General Pamela Bondi said, “Accurate voter rolls are the cornerstone of fair and free elections, and too many states have fallen into a pattern of noncompliance with basic voter roll maintenance. The Department of Justice will continue filing proactive election integrity litigation until states comply with basic election safeguards.” Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon added, “Our federal elections laws ensure every American citizen may vote freely and fairly. States that continue to defy federal voting laws interfere with our mission of ensuring that Americans have accurate voter lists as they go to the polls, that every vote counts equally, and that all voters have confidence in election results. At this Department of Justice, we will not stand for this open defiance of federal civil rights laws.” According to the DOJ, the Attorney General is charged by Congress with enforcing the National Voter Registration Act and the Help America Vote Act, as well as the Civil Rights Act of 1960, which allows the federal government to demand, inspect, and analyze statewide voter lists. Rhode Island is one of at least 14 Democratic-led states facing similar lawsuits. The DOJ is asking a federal judge to declare Amore in violation of federal law and to order him to hand over the records within five days. Amore has called the suit unconstitutional and vowed to fight it. #rhodeisland #donaldjtrump #newportbuzz
STATE HOUSE — Rhode Island lawmaker pushes for sta STATE HOUSE — Rhode Island lawmaker pushes for statewide anti-hazing policy after recent school incidents In response to a series of troubling hazing cases in local schools, Rep. Joseph M. McNamara (D-Warwick, Cranston) has prefiled legislation that would create a uniform, statewide anti-hazing policy for all Rhode Island public schools. The proposal would direct the Rhode Island Department of Education to work with the Rhode Island Interscholastic League to craft a policy that establishes zero tolerance for hazing and ensures consistent, transparent discipline for students. “As a retired educator, coach and former student athlete, I can state without reservation that hazing is degrading, abusive and dangerous,” said McNamara, who chairs the House Education Committee. “We’ve all worked hard to make schools safer, more welcoming and more inclusive. Athletics should not be an exception to that rule.” The legislation follows two recent incidents: five seniors at Smithfield High School were accused of locking a freshman in a bathroom and spraying him with Lysol, and four teens at Rogers High School in Newport were arrested for assaulting a student with special needs in a locker room. McNamara has already shared the proposal with both the Department of Education and the Interscholastic League for feedback before introducing it in January. Under the draft version, students or student-athletes who participate in hazing could face a range of penalties, including suspension from athletic teams. In severe cases, an entire team’s season could be canceled. “We need a statewide policy where every student-athlete, coach and administrator will understand that these behaviors will no longer be acceptable and there will be consequences to both athletes and teams,” McNamara said. He added that he looks forward to refining the bill based on input from education leaders and introducing it at the start of the upcoming legislative session.
