January 23, 5:30-7pm) Rhode Island's legislative process and how to testify at the General Assembly (Sat. March 23, 10:30am-noon) Redistricting and Gerrymandering (Sat. May 11, 10:30am-noon) Free and open to the public, but registration is required.  Sign up to join us for one, two, or all three. https://actionnetwork.org/events/demystifying-democracy-house-rules
