Message: From GoLocalProv by Kate Nagle, GoLocalProv Contributor: With Rhode Island lagging the rest of the country in most every economic measure, GoLocalProv.com talked with Rhode Island's legislative leaders, candidates for Governor and business reform advocates as to their strategies for Rhode Island's growth and recovery. URI Economist Len Lardaro said this week that "there's a lack of meaningful economic leadership (in state government)." Rhode Island was recently ranked 40th in the country by Moody's for projected job growth 2014, at a forecasted 1.33% dramatically lower than the predicted national 1.7% growth rate. All of this raises the question, what is Rhode Island's plan for economic development? http://www.golocalprov.comhttp://beta.golocalprov.com/does-rhode-island-have-a-clear-strategy-for-economic-development
