PROVIDENCE, RI — Gov. Gina Raimondo and Lt. Gov. Dan McKeee will hold a joint news conference Wednesday afternoon. This will be the first time the governor has addressed the Rhode Island public this year, and the first news conference since her introduction as President-elect Joe Biden's nominee for Secretary of Commerce.

This will be the first time McKee will address the public at a coronavirus news conference. The conference will be held at 1 p.m. and will be live-streamed on the governor's Facebook page or watched online via Capitol TV.
