Camille Vella-Wilkinson hadn’t been planning to run for the General Assembly at the end of her fourth year on the Warwick City Council, but she realized a number of challenges councillors faced could be eased with a strong voice representing Warwick in the State House.
Local businessman Michael Underwood has served as a decorated US Coast Guard officer (retired in 2009), then volunteering at Aldrich Jr. High and Make a Wish, and he’s aiming to continue as Warwick’s representative in Dist. 21, pledging independence from SpeakerNicholas Mattiello’s General Assembly leadership.
