Arkansas Republican House Caucus

LEADING THE NATION ⚡ Arkansas is leading the way, and your Republican majority is just getting started!

🤳Recap from recent fiscal and special sessions → From lowering your income and property taxes to a conservative, balanced budget, the Republican majority continued to deliver for the people of Arkansas.

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! 🍎 Arkansas House Republicans are grateful for our incredible teachers. In 2023, we passed AR LEARNS, raising starting teacher pay from bottom 5 to top 5 in the nation because investing in teachers is investing in our future. 🇺🇸

From 7.0% to 3.7%—the Republican majority just delivered a $336 million win for taxpayers, letting you keep more of what you earn. 💸

Enjoyed my time at the Developmental Disability Providers Association Conference this week. Their work is not a job—it’s a calling. Thank you for all you do, and to Former Speaker Bill Stovall for leading a meaningful panel discussion.

He voted to allow experimental transgender surgeries on our kids. He voted against punishing violent criminal illegals in Arkansas. And he voted against reducing our state income tax. Fred LOVES the radical left’s agenda! #arpx

80 years ago today, courageous American and Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy. On this D-Day, let us remember the brave heroes who fought to liberate Europe from Nazi occupation, and the Americans who paid the ultimate sacrifice. All gave some, some gave all. 🇺🇸

The Republican Party of Arkansas stands with Israel, a nation that has every right to defend itself against violence and the barrage of rockets from Hamas. It is vital that the United States stand with Israel and the Jewish community. #arpx

Government red tape is a barrier to starting businesses and creating jobs. To address this problem, Rep. @KendonReese Underwood sponsored the Fast-Track Permits Act to streamline the building permitting process. How does this new Arkansas law work? WATCH | #arleg #arpx

Thank you to @TheFGA for highlighting another policy win for the taxpayers from the recent legislative session! #arpx #arleg

This week, a story regarding my bill (HB1653/Act 525) banning the purchase, and the future grounding, of Chinese made drones by State agencies ran. This bill is vital for securing the safety and security of our citizens and infrastructure. I want to give special thanks to @JustinBoydAR for being my co-sponsor on this critical piece of legislation. #arpx #arleg 4029tv.com/amp/article/ch…

Treasury staff is sad to announce the passing of Treasurer Mark Lowery. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family during this difficult time. We wish to honor him and continue doing the work he entrusted us with. Mark Dale Lowery March 28, 1957 - July 26, 2023

The Arkansas LEARNS Act means a goal of reading mastery—not simply increasing scores! "Kids must know how to read," says Rep. Keith Brooks. "Not just a few kids, but all kids, because it's such an important indicator of future success." WATCH | @babblingbrooks5 #arleg #arpx

Haha! Yes I am proud we are growing paychecks by letting people keep more of what they earn. And raising teacher pay. And funding crime lab. And fixing prison overcrowding. I understand why this is a foreign concept to you. Beebe did NONE of this. @ARGOP is getting it done!

Arkansas State Rep. Mindy McAlindon (@TheRightMindy) is opposed to the "mayhem" of ranked-choice voting and the "problems" it causes for voters. "Just because someone may have been their third or fourth choice doesn't mean they actually want that person in office." #arleg

I helped pass SB93/Act 42, allowing dental schools in Arkansas. Congrats @LyonCollege for opening your dental school. AR has been helping pay the out-of-state tuitions of about 60 dental and 60 veterinary students attending school elsewhere. That changes today! #arpx #arleg

Here at the Capitol I just signed an executive order declaring that a State of Emergency exists in the State of Arkansas due to today’s severe weather. We will spare no resource to assist with response and recovery efforts for Arkansans impacted.

Thank you Sen. @lbengilmore & Rep. @jimmygazaway for putting months of hard work into this bill & to Gov. @SarahHuckabee & @AGTimGriffin for championing this important cause! #arpx #arleg

Arkansas has passed universal licensing reciprocity with overwhelming bipartisan support. Next stop: @SarahHuckabee desk! #arpx 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Arkansas parents have spoken. 📣  Today, they won.  👊 Congratulations to @SarahHuckabee for making education freedom a reality in Arkansas. #arleg #arpx
