The LGBTQ Victory Fund, the only national organization dedicated to electing LGBTQ people to public office, has urged Rhode Island Lt. Gov. Dan McKee (D) to name former State Sen. Donna Nesselbush, an out lesbian, to replace him should he ascend to the governorship following the confirmation of Gov. Gina Raimondo (D) as the next U.S. Secretary of Commerce.
Nesselbush, a former five-term state senator who now serves as a municipal judge for the city of Pawtucket, R.I., has amassed a long resumé of accomplishments following her graduation from Brown University in 1984. She served as the executive director of the Rhode Island Coalition Against Domestic Violence for seven years before earning a law degree from Suffolk University.
