RIFuture covers two unusually positive political developments today.

• National Grid, our electrical utility, has expressed a new willingness to enter long-term agreements with suppliers of renewable energy.

• The Providence City Council’s finance committee will be taking up the Living Wage Ordinance on Thursday. (Yours truly was recently informed that he’ll be giving the presentation on the ordinance’s behalf.)

There are links galore to info about both issues at RIFuture. Also on Thursday, the Providence City Council will take up a resolution in support of the janitors at Providence College, who are organizing for a fair new contract.
