House Minority Leader Patricia Morgan and Cranston Mayor Allan Fung
House Minority Leader and Republican candidate for Governor Patricia Morgan, appeared on GoLocal LIVE and questioned where opponent and Cranston Mayor Allan Fung stands on important issues -- and says she believes his purported success in Cranston won't translate statewide.
“For years Mayor Fung has been attempting to either play both sides of nearly every issue or simply refuse to comment. From tolls, to taxpayer funding of a new stadium, to the federal tax cuts, he either favors both sides, waits until the dust has settled or simply refuses to comment," said Morgan. It appears that is his election strategy: not allowing voters to know what they are getting if they vote for him. The alternative is that he simply has not taken the time to understand the issues and truly has no opinion. That’s not leadership we can trust.”
