Being called a "nutjob" by Jason Rapert is bit like being called ugly by a frog. With apologies to the frogs ...

CORRECTION: Issue 3 is the scam with the scare ads; Issue 4 is water infrastructure. Three is still bad. Dunno about 4. #arpx #arnews #arleg

Big revenue, courtesy of taxpayers.

Issue 1 duplicates existing law and is unnecessary.

Issue 2 duplicates existing law and is unnecessary.

(Both are MAGA fantasies.)

Issue 3 is a bad thing, a smarter man than I wrote.

Issue 4 is a scam or it wouldn't need scare-tactic TV ads.

A better Arkansas means a better start for moms and babies. Congrats to Rep. Ashley Hudson for passing HB1333 that expands coverage for breastfeeding and lactation services. Dems are working (and voting!) for a healthier Arkansas. #arleg #arpx

Increasingly rare GOOD bill alert: #HB1004, which expands postpartum Medicaid to 12 months postpartum, passed the House yesterday with 71 votes. This is a big step in the right direction to lowering our dismal maternal mortality rate. #arpx #arleg

I am still astonished that Arkansas legislators somehow failed to embrace this particular bit of stupidity. But, there's always next year!

Worth remembering that Arkansas legislators were bamboozled into passing this nonsense by a father-son team of Christian nationalists from Texas. Although to be fair, bamboozling them isn't very difficult ...

We're in court today challenging an Arkansas law that requires public schools to display a government-selected version of the Ten Commandments in every classroom and library.

Public schools aren't Sunday Schools.

I've been amazed at recent video clips of town halls where constituents have confronted their Congress reps.

Both because the people have strongly voiced their disapproval - and because they live in states where their senators/reps HAVE town halls.

Arkansas, do better. #ARLeg #ARBlueDots

INVITATION ONLY: Google is having a semi-secret town hall today in Little Rock to push its ginormous data center, subsidized with #GoogleGiveway tax breaks foolishly agreed to by city leaders.

Google is holding a secret meeting at First United Methodist on Wednesday to answer questions about its data center. You are not invited. - Arkansas Times
I wonder if this secretive, exclusive meeting will help with the perception that the project has not been very transparent.

In Arkansas our reps are wanting the following:

Tracking menstrual periods
Allowing getting ivermectin without a prescription
Forcing kids to watch a pro birthing fetus video

In my county the QC just made us a "pro life" county.

Practicing medicine has always been a challenge here.

Alert:*Last week, SB536 was defeated at the House committee level, saving rural library funding & preserving the library board. Now, Sen. Dismang has introduced SB640, which threatens the independence of the state library board by allowing the governor to replace its members w/political appointees.

If you are interested in running for office, we need you! Get involved with your county party. Let them know your intentions. If you have any questions about the process just ask! #arpx #arleg

From my understanding, our legislators are "policy people."

If that's the case, we SHALL hold them accountable, or they MAY demolish our longstanding structures, procedures, and processes.

Protect your library, speak up against SB536!
