As Rhode Islanders continue to struggle in this tough economy, U.S. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse will host a community dinner in Narragansett this Sunday, to listen to local residents’ concerns and take questions. Sheldon will discuss his fight to support Rhode Island small businesses, preserve Social Security and Medicare benefits, and implement the “Buffett Rule” to make sure the wealthiest Americans pay their fair share in taxes.
