Evidence-based approach to parole is being smart on crime

[On parole reform]: "It's time to make Rhode Island more fair ... more just," Raimondo said, "This about social justice, racial justice and equality." She rejected criticisms that the measures were soft on crime.

"This isn't about being soft on crime. It's about being smart on crime," she said. The new laws adopt an "evidence-based" approach to parole and probation supervision that would dedicate the bulk of the resources to offenders who are most at risk to re-offend.

Tackle human trafficking and strip clubs

Violence in our communities threatens to undermine R.I.'s economic recovery. When children witness domestic violence, it makes it harder to learn in school. And we must do more to prevent the human trafficking that has made its way to the front pages of our newspapers. As governor, Gina will:

Improve our state's domestic violence response procedures to focus on reducing violence against women.
Tackle human trafficking and enact stricter penalties on strip clubs and similar establishments.
