Sen. Whitehouse makes three appearances in R.I. today

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse is making the rounds in Rhode Island today, where he has three planned stops in Providence and Warwick.

At 8:45 this morning, Whitehouse is scheduled to visit students at the Oliver Hazard Perry Middle School.

Whitehouse is a member of the Senate budget committee, which recently passed its 2009 Senate Budget Resolution. Read the resolution, including its education component, online.

Then, at 10, Whitehouse speaks to older students at Global Rhode Island’s 9th Annual Capital Forum on America’s Future. He’ll talk to about 80 high school students about domestic and foreign policy issues

An hour later, the senator is set to take a ride from the Warwick Fire Department to Kent County Hospital in a rescue vehicle to see how the hospital and emergency crews make use of an electronic records system.
