The Progressive Leadership Fund believes in a strong and active state government that reflects the fact that we are all part of one community. To achieve this end, PLF fights for a Rhode Island that cares for its children and families; that preserves our environment; that stands up for civil rights for all; that respects working people and values the work they do; and that is fundamentally fair in how residents both pay for and receive services. PLF is committed to building a group of legislators who understand that in order for Rhode Island to make progress towards our shared values, we must act together on behalf of all Rhode Islanders – with unfair advantage to none, and opportunity for all.
The Progressive Leadership Fund considers seeking our endorsement an affirmation of your support for and commitment to these principles.
