In her weekly video address, Governor Raimondo encourages Rhode Islanders to take part in Small Business Saturday tomorrow and buy local this holiday season.

Our state's many small businesses add to our quality of life and make an immediate contribution to our economy. Rhode Island is stronger because of our small businesses and our local retailers make the holiday season merrier for everyone.
