SENATE RESOLUTION EXPRESSING DEEPEST CONDOLENCES ON THE PASSING OF THE HONORABLE SCOTT BILL HIRST
This is a ceremonial resolution (SR 2068), not a bill with policy provisions. It expresses the Rhode Island Senate's condolences upon the passing of Scott Bill Hirst, a longtime Hopkinton Town Council member and local civil servant who served as Council President from 2022-2024. The resolution directs the Secretary of State to send a certified copy to his family. It has no effect on laws, regulations, or anyone's rights, as it is purely symbolic.
