R.I. feels impact of Trump tariffs, the battle for South County Hospital, and more

President Trump has upended global markets with a series of executive actions on import tariffs. We talk with a URI economist about the potential impact here in Rhode Island and some ways the state’s economy has already been affected. Also: the battle over the future of South County Hospital continues. Reporter Lynn Arditi tells us what’s driving the dispute and what’s at stake. And: Can you name five women artists? In this week’s Artscape, we talk with a local art history professor who says most people can’t – and she’s on a mission to change that. All that and more on this episode of The Weekly Catch.
