Overview

Rhode Island has always been a place of resilience, leading the nation in innovation and embracing diversity. Today, we reaffirm our commitment to honor that legacy and channel it into a brighter future. The Rhode Island Forward Party envisions a state where all citizens have equitable opportunities to prosper and succeed.

Why This Matters

Our political landscape is in need of reform. To foster a more inclusive and representative democracy, we must embrace measures such as:

  • Ranked-Choice Voting
  • Open Primaries
  • Support for Independent Candidates

Our Values

  • Free People: Support transparency and a strong ethical framework.
  • Thriving Communities: Economic stability and growth for all.
  • Vibrant Democracy: Open primaries, ranked choice voting, and independent redistricting.

Guiding Principles

  1. Work Together, Not Against: Strive for collaborative solutions.
  2. Bottom-Up, Not Top-Down: Empower leaders to find community-based solutions.
  3. More Listening, Less Talking: Ask what we can do for your community.
  4. Diverse Thinking Isn’t Just Welcome, It’s Required: Welcome new ideas and fearless conversations.
  5. All Are Welcome - Left, Right, or Center: A political home for everyone willing to work together.

What We're Petitioning For

We are petitioning to:

  1. Implement Ranked-Choice Voting in Rhode Island.
  2. Open up the primaries to all voters, regardless of party affiliation.
  3. Encourage and support independent candidates in local and state elections.
