State House, Providence – Leader Blake Filippi (R-Dist. 36, New Shoreham, Charlestown, South Kingstown, Westerly), co-chair of the Rhode Island Shoreline Access Commission, applauds the House passage of H8055 Sub A, a bill which Filippi has co-sponsored. H8055 will ensure future generations of Rhode Islanders their constitutional right to access the shoreline:
“Our shoreline access rights are so important to this Ocean State that we have seen fit to codify them as fundamental constitutional rights.  This bill ensures that there is enough beach area for those rights to be exercised. Without this legislation being passed by the Senate and signed by the Governor, our constitutional shoreline access rights will remain an illusion.”

About rhode island house republicans


In 1636, Roger Williams, founder of Rhode Island, established the first working model of Democracy after being banished from Massachusetts for his “extreme views” concerning freedom of speech and religion. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams publicly acknowledged Williams as the originator of these concepts, along with the freedom of public assembly, in the First Amendment in the United States Constitution. Today, Rhode Island House Republicans uphold the liberties designed by our Founders and preserved in our Constitution, and are the primary legislative body promoting lean government, fighting for lower taxes, and advocating for initiatives and policies that improve the economy and in turn, the lives of Rhode Islanders.  As members of a part-time assembly, we are small business owners, retired educators, community activists, lawyers, farmers, military service veterans, volunteers, former local officials, retired social workers, coaches, musicians, churchgoers and board directors -- bringing these community engagement and professional experiences to our work, on your behalf, at the Rhode Island State House.
