PROVIDENCE, RI - On December 24, 2024, Governor Dan McKee and First Lady Susan McKee issued the following statement wishing Rhode Islanders a merry Christmas and happy Hanukkah:

“In the McKee household, we always say it’s important to count our blessings every day – and that’s especially true during the holiday season. Whether you’re spending time with loved ones, enjoying traditions old and new, or finding ways to give back to your community, this time of year reminds us of all we have to be grateful for.

This season, we encourage all Rhode Islanders to find ways to keep the spirit of togetherness, generosity, and joy alive year-round in the Ocean State.  

On behalf of the entire McKee family, we wish Rhode Islanders a merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah, and a peaceful holiday season.”
