HOUSE RESOLUTION EXTENDING CONDOLENCES ON THE PASSING OF THE HONORABLE THOMAS E. HODGE

This is a ceremonial House Resolution, not a policy bill. It formally extends condolences from the Rhode Island House of Representatives to the family of Thomas E. Hodge, a former Pawtucket City Council member and State Representative who served the community for decades. The resolution recognizes his long service, business ownership, and community roles, including his work with the Pawtucket Arts Council and as homeless liaison. It directs the Secretary of State to send a certified copy of the resolution to his family. This is a symbolic gesture with no legal effect or policy changes.
