Year-round advocacy to fund and support your efforts.
Donations to the CIRI PAC are more crucial than ever.
In the current political and economic environments, on both the federal and state levels, competition for funding is fiercer than ever. The CIRI Political Action Committee (PAC) has a decades-long track record of securing tangible support for our state’s transportation and infrastructure initiatives. It is firmly rooted in the steadfast belief in the power of what our CIRI member companies contribute on a daily basis to the Rhode Island economy — to its business climate and commercial prosperity — and to the exceptional quality of life for our residents.
A broad-based, year-round effort to promote positive relationships.
The crux of our mission is to keep funding levels at status quo at a minimum — while advocating for increases to offset the effects of inflation and unexpected challenges. This includes efforts to ensure the state’s share for road and bridge construction is properly funded. All of this alleviates the need for public bond-issue campaigns which wind up costing our industry hundreds of thousands of dollars.
On the local level, our active advocacy keeps our message front and center with the RI General Assembly, our Governor, and statewide elected officials. These efforts support positive legislation that will help our industry and the RI economy — while opposing legislation that would be detrimental to our members.
Gearing up for a pivotal year on the RI political scene.
The 2026 election cycle will feature a robust lineup of statewide contests, including marquee races for governor and other key positions. The CIRI PAC will expand and intensify its advocacy efforts accordingly to represent our interests to all major candidates.
Fortifying our position on the national level.
As an active member of the American Road and Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA), the CIRI PAC also keeps a finger on the pulse of the latest developments in Washington. While keeping our advocacy efforts in alignment with the priorities of the Trump administration.
