Other facts

My name is Steve Campo and I am running for State Representative in District 31, North Kingstown and Exeter. I am a local businessman/entrepreneur with 25 years of experience as the founder and owner of Rhode Island Green. Currently, I teach at Bryant University. I am running because I am extremely concerned about the direction our State has taken. We can't ask our families to live within their means when the state can't do the same. As your State Representative, I will work towards a state government that we can all afford. The government needs to cultivate an environment that creates jobs. We must start local and ask ourselves how we can keep and grow our local businesses already in place. I have experience that can be applied to help our state in this area. We cannot continue business as usual because it has become unsustainable. Further, our roads and bridges are deplorable and we must make the necessary investments in our communities' infrastructure to ensure safety for all our citizens and to attract new businesses. Rhode Island is a great place to live and work. I am a life-long resident. I went to both undergraduate and graduate school in RI and I plan on retiring here.
