Sponsors oppose medical waste facility proposed on East Greenwich-West Warwick border STATEHOUSE â Sen. Bridget Valverde and Rep. Justine Caldwell introduced joint legislation last week which would prohibit new, high-heat waste incineration facilities in Rhode Island. The bill comes on the heels of outcry and concern from their local constituents, who in large part, have come out in strong opposition against a proposed medical waste facility on the border of East Greenwich and West Warwick. MedRecycler Inc. hopes to open its waste-to-energy plant at 1600 Division Road, and if approved, plans to dispose of up to 70 tons of medical waste a day.

Opponents were geared up for battle last year. But the pandemic shut down the legislature. Now all of the bills crafted by opponents of Rhode Island s Reproductive Privacy Act have been reintroduced and queued up for a House Judiciary hearing on Friday, same time, same place as the annual fight over death with dignity legislation. Introduced several times before but never passed, the legislation would insulate a physician from any civil or criminal liability or professional disciplinary action for prescribing medication to be self-administered by a patient to hasten death. Those against abortion tend to oppose assisted suicide under any circumstances, while those who believe in individuals right to make their own health-care decisions take the other side. ....
