Thank you to all of our farmers and others in the agricultural industry who play such a critical role feeding Arkansans, the country, and the world! Agriculture has been the driving force of Arkansas’s economy since before we even became a state. I appreciate all of the amazing and challenging work done by our agricultural producers to keep us fed, clothed, and fueled. #arnews

I had the honor of speaking at the Camden Regional Chamber of Commerce’s centennial celebration last night. It was great to catch up with longtime friends, and it was especially sweet to have my in-laws in attendance. I shared my excitement for all of the economic growth happening in South Arkansas and encouraged everyone to work as a region to capitalize on that momentum. Congrats to the Chamber on an amazing first 100 years. The next 100 will be even better! #arnews

Jacqueline Small pled guilty to felony Medicaid fraud last week. She was sentenced to a five-year term of probation, a $500 fine plus court fees, and restitution totaling $7,427.38. She improperly billed Medicaid for the services she never provided. Addressing Medicaid fraud in Arkansas remains a top priority, and my office will continue working to hold those who abuse the system accountable. arkansasag.gov/news-release/a… #arnews

I strongly support President @realDonaldTrump’s nomination of @SenMullin as the next Secretary of @DHSgov. I served with Senator Mullin in Congress and know that he will provide the kind of leadership we need at Homeland Security. The Senate should confirm Senator Mullin without delay.

I applaud @SenTomCotton for standing up for uniformed service members, retirees, and their families by ensuring that they have access to prescription drugs at pharmacies of their choice. The Rx ACCESS Act, which Senator Cotton has co-sponsored, would require pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) to reimburse pharmacies participating in the TRICARE program either the actual cost of a drug or the national average drug acquisition cost, thus shielding independent pharmacies from unfair reimbursement practices and empowering military members and their families to use the pharmacy they choose—not the one chosen for them by the PBMs. As an almost 30-year Army officer, my family and I have seen firsthand the anti-competitive ways PBMs manipulate the market and burden servicemembers. For far too long, PBMs have abused their power to the detriment of consumers and independent pharmacies to benefit themselves. We are addressing this at the state level, and I am pleased to see legislation introduced in Congress to address it nationally. tinyurl.com/mwdkk84f #arnews

As a Hendrix College alumnus, it was a distinct honor to be back on campus today to announce the launch of the One Pill Can Kill initiative. Hendrix is the 10th campus in Arkansas to join One Pill Can Kill, and it is only the second private institution.  Our message to young people about the dangers of illicit opioids, particularly fentanyl, is spreading across college campuses and in communities throughout Arkansas. I have no doubt that the awareness we are bringing to this issue will be the difference between life and death for some young Arkansans, which is why we are determined to bring this program to as many schools as possible. tinyurl.com/mrx4awbn #arnews

Today’s acts of violence in Michigan and Virginia are reprehensible examples of cowardice. I am praying for those who were injured and for the family and friends of the victim who was killed at Old Dominion, and I am grateful for the swift and heroic work of law enforcement and security personnel. Their preparedness and courage undoubtedly saved lives.

Kimberly Rios of West Memphis was found guilty of felony Medicaid fraud earlier this week. She was sentenced to a five-year term of probation, a $500 fine plus court fees, and restitution totaling $11,317.25. Rios submitted claims for in-home personal care services that were not provided as reported. Records indicate Rios was not at or even near the clients’ residences at the times she claimed to have provided services. She improperly billed Medicaid for the services she never provided. Those who attempt to cheat Medicaid for personal gain will be prosecuted and held accountable. tinyurl.com/3p2n4ktj #arnews

Rest in peace to the legendary, one-of-a-kind Coach Lou Holtz. Coach Holtz’s time at the helm of @RazorbackFB was one of records and great memories for many Arkansans as the Hogs dominated the Southwest Conference in the late 1970s. Coach Holtz was also a strong conservative who spoke frequently on national issues. Over the years I had the opportunity to speak with him several times, and he was as passionate and good-spirited in person as he was when he was in front of a camera. I offer my sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Today I spoke with a great group of young people who are part of TeenPact Arkansas, an organization dedicated to helping young people grow in their Christian faith and understand how their faith impacts culture. I encouraged them to stay engaged in the public sphere and grow in their understanding of politics and government, a responsibility of all Americans. #arnews
