Bob Chiaradio Reminds Westerly, RI School Committee That Testimony Given At The Podium Isn't Subject To Content Regulation Or Fact Checking

Bob Chiaradio delivers remarks to the Westerly, RI school committee regarding the instructions given at the start of every open forum for content to be fact based and non-repetitive.

He reminds the committee that content of anyone’s testimony isn’t subject to fact checking prior to a citizen’s presence at the podium nor subject to ridicule.

He reminds the school committee that in December of 2021, teachers surrounded him at the podium as he was speaking in clear violations of the forum rule but the school committee chair did not enforce the rules.
