Three candidates have three versions of People’s Pledge, they talk tomorrow

Three of the Democrats running for governor will meet tomorrow, 10am, at Common Cause RI headquarters to work on further hammering out Rhode Island’s first-ever People’s Pledge to control anonymous, third party campaign spending.

However Angel Taveras, Clay Pell and Gina Raimondo all have different ideas on how to do that. Click on each candidates name in the previous sentence to read their proposals.

“With all three major Democratic candidates having submitted draft Pledges, now is time to get them to agree on the details,” said Common Cause RI Executive Director John Marion, who first suggested the idea and brought the three candidates to the table (and not even figuratively!). “All sides agree they want to conclude this process soon so that they can shift their focus to the campaigns, so I’m optimistic we’ll see progress at tomorrow’s meeting.”
