Great interview with Laborers Local 271 member Antonio Gianfrancesco about working on offshore wind projects. youtu.be/UuINTSa7ULg?...

New story from @nytimes.com features comments from State Fed President @patcrowley401.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2026/01/10/c... @aflcio.org @cjnrc.org

“This is not the first time this administration has tried to shut down offshore wind, and it will not be the last unless we continue to push back,” said Patrick Crowley, President of the RI AFL-CIO.

Now more than ever it is important to shop local in Providence.

There's something happening here... "Benoit instead suggested that RIPTA’s board support a tax on Rhode Island’s highest earners to fill the agency’s remaining budget gap. It’s a move that he admitted he wouldn’t have supported in the past."

Killer video by @riaflcio.bsky.social featuring @patcrowley401.bsky.social on how #Trump 's illegal stop work order on the Revolution Wind #offshorewind farm affected Rhode Island workers. This is how it is done. www.youtube.com/watch?v=O333...

On August 22, 2025, the Trump administration issued a stop work order on Revolution Wind, a 704 megawatt offshore wind farm off the coasts of Rhode Island and Connecticut. This video shares the stories of union members that were impacted by the shut down. 💨✊🍞🌹🌹 #SolidarityIsAVerb #offshorewind

“For construction workers, project certainty means paychecks, health care, and the ability to provide for their families. The real-world consequences of this stop work order are lost jobs, missed mortgage payments, and broken promises.” – Patrick Crowley, @riaflcio.bsky.social
