Bill > S1147

This bill proposes to rename the Rhode Island Senate Chamber in the State House to honor former Senate President Dominick J. Ruggerio by officially designating it as the "President Dominick J. Ruggerio Senate Chamber". The legislation amends Chapter 22-7.4 of the General Laws, which governs the naming of state buildings and structures, by adding a new section that specifically mandates this name change. The bill is a straightforward commemorative measure that would permanently recognize Ruggerio's service and contributions by placing his name on the Senate Chamber where he previously served as president. The act would take effect immediately upon its passage, meaning the renaming would occur as soon as the bill is signed into law.
