Former Rhode Island General Treasurer Anthony Solomon died on Thursday.
The longtime Providence resident was 89 years old. The Democrat served as state treasurer in two nonconsecutive terms (1977 to 1984, and 1989 to 1993).
Massachusetts state Senator Lydia Edwards says she doesn't have children because she doesn't have enough money.
"I do not have children. It is because it's a financial decision. A very hard one to make, honestly. And I would love to be a mother one day – I'm putting it out there to the universe – but I also need my bank account to be able to match that," Edwards said during a press conference Wednesday, February 23.
