State Rep. Lauren Carson will join What’sUpNewp for a live one-on-one conversation Thursday, March 5, at noon to discuss the results of her 2026 constituent survey and what she is working on at the State House.
Carson, a Democrat representing Newport in House District 75, released the survey in January, inviting residents to share their priorities on issues ranging from housing and affordability to healthcare, the potential closure of the Newport Hospital Birthing Center, and climate and infrastructure.
“Listening to my constituents and learning directly from their experiences is essential to how I represent our community,” Carson said. “My work at the State House is guided by the issues that matter most to you.”
Carson presented the survey results Monday at a constituent meeting at the Newport Public Library, 300 Spring St.
Thursday’s live conversation will give residents another opportunity to hear directly from Carson about the feedback she received and the priorities she is bringing to the State House.
Carson can be reached at laurenhcarson@gmail.com. More information is available at laurencarson.com.
