Democrats Fail To Overturn Governors Convention Bill Veto
The Rhode Island Senate, with Democrats short of a veto override, delayed a final decision on Gov. Chafee’s constitutional convention bill. A key vote shifted as Sen. Grimes and LaChapelle were absent or in flux, allowing Republicans to sustain the veto. A new vote was planned this afternoon as party leaders weigh next steps toward a potential referendum on revising the state constitution.
