Block Calls for End of Political Corruption in Rhode Island
Wednesday, July 30, 2014
Republican candidate for Governor Ken Block has called for an end to the political corruption in Rhode Island.
“The resignation by the Democratic Party Chairman is the most recent in a string of incidents that reflect poorly on our state,” said Block. “Now we have yet another investigation added to the State Police takeover of Mayor Fung’s police department in Cranston, in addition to Gordon Fox being run out of office by the FBI and State Police.”
“Rhode Island’s economic climate is bad, but our political climate is worse”, said Block. “They both need to be fixed.”

I will use my background to eliminate waste and fraud and save taxpayer money wherever it can be found and put money back into the pockets of taxpayers. Until we lower the cost of doing business in Rhode Island we will not be able to bring back the jobs that have been lost.”
