2024 RI Senate race: on Homeland Security


Patricia Morgan: Advocate for anything improving the lives of our veterans

Rep. Patricia Morgan, R-West Warwick, is a strong advocate for anything improving the lives of our veterans and active service members. This advocacy results from the strong military background in her family, as well as her own experiences as the wife of a Navy pilot.

"I was surrounded by veterans of World War II as I grew up in Ohio," she said. Her father and uncle (Thomas and Henry Lazar) both enlisted in March 1942 and fought until the war ended.

Elected to the Rhode Island House in 2010, Morgan, a Republican, became the first female minority leader in 2015.  She is now serving her 12th year in the House. "Two important accomplishments I helped bring about are building the new Veterans Home in Bristol and eliminating the state income tax on military pensions," she said. "I look forward to continuing my advocacy for our military members."
