The @BrownUniversity medical residents employed at Kent County Memorial Hospital have now won their union election, 74-28.
The @BrownUniversity medical residents employed at Women and Infants Hospital have won their union, 40-8. The union now represents all 64 house staff at that hospital. That's one of the @carenewengland union elections down today, and two more to go (Kent and Butler).

A few years ago I started hearing about how a Koch-backed company was buying marinas all over Rhode Island and up and down the East Coast. @_jonnywilliams and I spent the summer looking at why this is happening, and what it means for boaters & businesses providencejournal.com/story/…
