	"description": "Rhode Island has a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet our challenges head-on and invest in our future. With historic investments in the months and years ahead, we can modernize and fully decarbonize every school building by 2030. The state has just begun the hard work to improve and modernize school buildings. However, the existing investment is not enough to meet the dire need throughout our state. Poor ventilation, crumbling ceilings, leaky roofs, mold, rotted pipes, and lead service lines not only risk the health and safety of children, but they also lead to poor learning outcomes. Furthermore, climate change brings a monumental set of challenges. Our children will bear the brunt of the climate crisis. It&#x27;s also our kids who are especially susceptible to the air pollution from our current energy systems. As Rhode Island considers effective pathways to decarbonize buildings, we can begin to tackle this challenge by starting with every public school building in the state. It’s time to fully transition our schools into the clean energy future with good, skilled union jobs. An investment in our children and our workers is an investment in our communities. Putting Rhode Island on the path to green and healthy schools with strong labor standards allows us to combat climate change, keep our kids and staff safe, improve learning outcomes, keep money in our communities, and create thousands of good union jobs. These transformative investments can begin with available ARPA funds in connection with a second school construction bond in 2022. Let&#x27;s not waste this golden opportunity to modernize and fully decarbonize our school buildings by 2030.",
