LIVE: Opponents to PawSox-Apex Deal to Gear Up for Latest Battle

David Norton
Calling the latest Pawtucket Red Sox legislative effort -- which is expected to see a fall session for legislators to consider --  "insane," community organizer and Pawtucket resident David Norton appeared on GoLocal LIVE on Tuesday.

"People in Rhode Island, and Pawtucket, are upset regarding collective billionaires getting tax money. [Last night], Facebook and social media started to light up," aid Norton. "We fought this fight two years ago, we thought we won it, we kind of fought it this year, we thought we won it."

"It's upsetting to Rhode Islanders and people of Pawtucket," said Norton.  

"We did a poll on the "you know you're from Pawtucket " Facebook page -- the sample size was 200 -- 160 or so were dead set against the PawSox getting $15 million from the City of Pawtucket."
