Another installment of Drinking Liberally — meet Democratic Candidate for General Treasurer, Gina Raimondo. She will probably say a few words and then answer your clearly-articulated, well-researched questions. Raimondo has plans for a sustainable retirement system, economic development, and (hooray) corporate governance.
As General Treasurer, Gina will exert the state’s leverage as a major shareholder to address corporate misbehavior — particularly those companies that unduly enrich insiders, or favor short-term interests at the expense of long-term returns for our state’s investments.
Introduce yourself to hosts Meghan Grady, Matt Jerzyk, Ami Gada, Jenna Lafayette, Johnathan Berard, and Chris Blazejewski (himself a candidate, State Rep District 2). Also, Mo has great beer on tap.
8pm, Wednesday, Wild Colonial Tavern, 250 South Water Street
