(Providence, RI) -- Here are the latest updates from the Rhode Island General Assembly as the 2021 regular legislative session come to a conclusion. Potential amendments to the state's Law Enforcement Officer Bill of Rights will be delayed as State House hearings were canceled this week. Meanwhile, the legislature has approved a statewide police body camera program. Final votes are expected on Thursday before several new gun laws would go to Governor Dan McKee's desk, including one which bans anyone except law enforcement and security guards from carrying firearms on school grounds.
