Rhode Island School Committee Candidate
Freedom to Read Scorecards
Our score cards grade candidates solely on where they stand on the freedom to read. Our rating system is very simple:
Gold Highlight = candidate won 2024 election
Gray Highlight = candidate lost 2024 election
- Green/for = Candidate unequivocally stands for the freedom to read.
- Yellow/mixed = Candidate mostly stands for the freedom to read, but has conflicting record, or conditional support.
- Red/against = Candidate opposes the freedom to read.
- Gray = Candidate directly declined to share stance or did not respond to requests for information.
Gold Highlight = candidate won 2024 election
Gray Highlight = candidate lost 2024 election

A team of volunteers compiled these scores through online research of candidate records, news stories, and direct emailing candidates to request information. While we’ve made every effort to distill complex answers into a "for/against/mixed" score, there may be inaccuracies. We encourage voters to attend their local candidate forums and reach out to candidates directly to ask about their stance on censorship.
