Jake Bissaillon serves as a Democratic Senator for District 1 in the Rhode Island state legislature.
Bissaillon was born in Lynn, Massachusetts. Bissaillon earned a bachelor’s degree and a graduate degree from Providence College in 2009 and 2010, respectively, and a J.D. Bissaillon’s career experience includes working in government. Since then, I have worked for both the House of Representatives and State Senate in leadership roles and presently oversee a staff of more than 50 employees. During my time with the Providence City Council, the Rhode Island House of Representatives, and the Rhode Island Senate, I worked across party lines, ward boundaries, zip codes, and cities and towns to pass forward-thinking reforms to improve the lives of residents in Providence and throughout Rhode Island.
