In The Arena – Rep. Blake Filippi, House Minority Leader
Each week Joe Paolino, Jr. interviews people of interest on his program, “In The Arena”. The show airs at 7am on Sundays on ABC6.
This week his guest is Rep. Blake Filippi, (R), House Minority Leader. He and show host, Joe Paolino, Jr. discuss whether or not Filippi will run for Governor, the Governor’s election in general, how elections are run, as well as how the huge amount of money coming into Rhode Island will be invested. They also discuss jobs, cost of living, tourism, healthcare and the impending hospital merger.
