In the Arena – Providence Mayor Jorge Elorza
Joe Paolino interviews Rhode Island leaders each week – this week he does an “exit-interview” of sorts with Mayor Jorge Elorza.
They talk about the things the Mayor is proudest of – and disappointments along the way.
Watch In the Arena every Sunday morning at 7am on Abc6

Thank you Joe Paolino for interviewing Mayor Elorza. Over the past 8 years I prayed for him. I appreciate his contributions, passion for service, integrity, and recognition that education and affordable housing are top priorities. I’m curious about the advice he will give the next Mayor. Would he offer a specific roadmap for resuscitating Providence Public Schools, addressing Racism, improve access to affordable Physical and Mental healthcare, and other Public Health issues. Finally, I hope he will spend time writing a book about his 8 years as a Mayor during the pandemic.
