Pam Lauria
RI STATE SENATOR - DISTRICT 32
Pam Lauria is a life-long East Bay resident. She grew up in East Providence before moving to Barrington with her husband and raising their family there. She is a primary care nurse practitioner at Coastal Medical with 25 years’ experience, now serving as a Trustee on Coastal’s Board. She is a volunteer and advocate with Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, and a member of Barrington’s Housing Board of Trustees, working to increase affordable housing in Barrington. She has led the Barrington Democratic Town Committee since 2017, and has successfully helped elect Democrats to local, state and federal office.
She is married to David Lauria, a teacher at Mt. Hope High School in Bristol. Their two children, Jacob and Maddie attended Barrington Public Schools and are both currently enrolled in college.
Working on policies that impact all Rhode Islanders’ health and wellness will be high among her priorities. Affordable/equitable/accessible healthcare, commonsense laws to reduce gun violence, affordable housing, supporting children educationally and emotionally, and making RI affordable for all are essential.
Pam loves the East Bay and would be honored to represent the community in the RI Senate.
