List of speakers of the Rhode Island House of Representatives

The speaker of the Rhode Island House of Representatives is the highest official in the Rhode Island House of Representatives. == History == From 1663 until 1842, Rhode Island's governing state constitution was its original colonial charter granted by King Charles II of England, a political anomaly considering that while most states during the War of Independence and afterwards wrote scores of new constitutions with their newly found independence in mind, Rhode Island instead continued with a document stamped by an English king.
