This week on the Cobblestone Press, host Kevin Aherne was joined by the CEO of the Rhode Island Center for Freedom and Prosperity, Mike Stenhouse to discuss a pair of proposed bills that would lead to robust school choice reform in Rhode Island. 

The Rhode Island Center for Freedom and Prosperity will participate in a legislative press conference Wednesday regarding the Bright Today educational choice scholarship legislation that will be introduced  in both the House and Senate. 
If enacted, the legislation would become the most innovative and universal school choice program in the entire nation, according to the Friedman Foundation for Educational Choice, which is partnering with local organizations in advancing the scholarship program.

Also expected to attend are members of the growing BrightToday.org coalition, including Gertrude Jones, former President of the Providence School Board, who is also scheduled to provide remarks.
