Circling Back with RI Lt. Governor Dan McKee
Rhode Island Lieutenant Governor Dan McKee was the first political guest to appear on The Bartholomewtown Podcast, so I couldn’t think of a better guest to celebrate episode 100 with than the honorable LG.
In the past year, McKee was engaged in a highly compelling Democratic primary with progressive former Representative Aaron Regunberg, a contest the LG ultimately won, and which served as a an interesting window into the strength of both the progressive and moderate Democrats in RI.
In his second term, LG McKee has continued to embrace his “39 Cities and Towns” approach to governance, and has been a statewide leader on issues ranging from utility company responsibility, Alzheimer’s and entrepreneurial incubation.
