"When I was asked to reflect on where we are and where we go from here, I see two next steps: We have to fight back with everything we have, and we have to build something new together: something beautiful."

First newsletter of 2026 in inboxes now! So much going on already! www.sueanderbois.com/post/kicking...

The future is *bright*! I was so excited to see the new pedestrian-level lights in the median of North Main near University Heights energized this weekend.

MEDIA ADVISORY: Join us Thurs. Jan. 8 at the State House for a press conference launching our 2026 Save RIPTA Legislative Campaign + releasing the 2025 Service Cuts Impact Report. The report illustrates the consequences that RIPTA riders & workers are suffering. Read the release on our website ⤵️

Donald Trump's illegal attack on Venezuela isn't about drug trafficking. It's a stunt to distract from his failures and enrich his friends and backers in big oil.

Thank you to our friends at Indivisible RI for organizing this vigil — and inviting me to speak and reflect on where are & where we are headed.

Hope to see you at our first friend-and-fundraiser of the year at Moniker on the 15th!

At District Park today to stand in support of workers affected by the federal shut down of nearly-completed off shore wind. These reckless actions by the Trump administration put works on the unemployment line, drive up energy costs, and pollute our air & water. With @jenstewart4ri.bsky.social

As 2025 draws to a close, I am reminded of a conversation from New Years a few years ago with a friend and mentor. As I wished him an Amazing New Year, he thoughtfully asked me, “What will you do to make this an amazing New Year?”

Merry Christmas, Rhode Island ❤️❤️

Lovin up on my community. I shared with a neighbor that my washing machine broke & repair guys are pretty booked up. She gave me her house key to let myself in and use her machines. I love that PVD feels like a small town sometimes. Folks literally pop by to borrow a cup of sugar. ❤️❤️

This type of action is bad for workers, bad for energy prices, and bad for our grid. Hmmm - I wonder who it helps? (hint: fossil fuel companies..). Thank you for calling this out, @whitehouse.senate.gov

Today the Trump administration suspended leases for 5 offshore wind farms in federal waters that would generate electricity to some 2.5 million homes. I wrote about the high cost of Trump's fossil fuel industry-induced opposition to to wind for @rollingstone.com www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

I interrupt your doomscroll to send you holiday greetings from #CaptainRuggles. He wasn’t sure about the sweater at first and then got so cozy.

This man spreading conspiracies from the platform he has literally could have gotten an additional member of my community killed. It definitely contributed to his being threatened. I hope Shaun faces monetary, professional and/or legal ramifications for what he did.

Reminder: if you're in Providence and want to write something -- anything -- about the Brown shooting and its aftermath, we'd love to include it in @thepvdeye.bsky.social's collection of essays running next week. Deadline is Monday morning. Email [email protected] or [email protected]. ❤️

Stopped by the RWP Zoo to learn more about their plans for the future — and made a few new adorable friends! Don’t forget to visit during the holiday lights celebration!

What a year 2025 has been. This community continues to inspire me in all the ways you care for each other. I am accountable to my community & I want to some of the major highlights of what I worked on and accomplished for you this year: www.sueanderbois.com/post/2025-ye...

Our friends at Everytown are hosting a call today at noon to support our community as we grieve. Information at the link below. everytownsupportfund.org/wp-content/u...

It is with relief to know that the person of interest in the Brown shooting has been found and is deceased. I want to share my gratitude to Col. Perez and all the teams involved in this investigation — including our neighbors who shared evidence & tips.

Thank you to our friends at Frog & Toad - all proceeds from the sale of these sweatshirts are going to the victims of the horrific shooting at Brown. I’m so grateful for all of our local community members supporting each other in all the ways. ❤️

Thank you to our friends at the zoo for opening up for free for those in our community affiliated with Brown.

Providence police have created a centralized site for photos/videos related to the Brown University shooting. Rely on official sources like this, not AI-fueled online stuff www.providenceri.gov/tips/

PVD Police seeking help

Please only share official videos and photos. There’s a lot of folks that are taking it upon themselves to “enhance” or otherwise manipulate the images which are giving a false identity of the POI. If it’s not from official channels, it’s not worth sharing - and could be actively harmful.

If you want to make sure you get notified for emergencies in Providence in the future sign up for 2 things: 1) PVD 311: www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5xd... 2) CodeRed Alerts:

Community Service of Lament, Healing and Hope for Brown University Community leaders will offer reflection as we gather together to grieve and the St Stephen's Choir will provide poignant music POLICE SECURITY WILL BE PROVIDED. All are welcome.

Please share the newly released images & videos linked below & share any information you have with the Providence Police x.com/providenceri...

The Providence School Board Region One Applicants Forum originally scheduled for tomorrow, December 16, 2025 will be postponed until early January. The City will share the details of the rescheduled event as soon as they are available.

Neighbors - I want to acknowledge the anxiety and other emotions many are feeling waking up to learn there is no longer a person of interest in custody.

No longer a "person of interest," Providence Police release detained man “I think what is really unfortunate is that this person’s name was leaked to the public. It’s hard to put that back in the bottle…” said Rhode Island Attorney General Peter Neronha steveahlquist.substack.com/p/no-longer-...

RI Coalition Against Gun Violence: "We cannot allow this to become just another statistic in the endless list of mass shootings in this country. We owe these students, their loved ones & and our community more than thoughts and prayers. We owe them action — urgent, collective, unwavering action."

Neighbors, our community has suffered a terrible tragedy. My heart breaks for the students who lost their lives to senseless gun violence and their families - and all in our community affected.

Neighbors, a person of interest is now in custody & the shelter in place has been lifted. My sincere gratitude to Col Perez and his team, Chief Silva, the state police, and all of the communities around the state who provided aid to our city.

Providence Police Commander Timothy O’Hara urges residents who live in the vicinity of the shooting to check their home security cameras for any footage that could help the investigation. If you see something suspicious - please immediately call 911.

BREAKING: Providence Mayor Brett Smiley said 2 are dead and 8 are in critical but stable condition. A suspect is NOT in custody at this hour. Asking people who live near Brown to shelter in place. If you’re not home, stay safe elsewhere. www.wpri.com/news/local-n... @wpri12.bsky.social
