The #arleg Senate has reconvened.

So far Ballinger has been at the well yelling, essentially threatening the Senate to pass the Emergency Clause on #SB739. He’s running #SB731.

House is back. #HB1982 is up for a vote. Rep. Speaks is explaining all the changes that have been made. #arpx #arleg #FairMapsAR
Lots of discussion about the impact of #HB1982 and what it will do to communities of color. Remember, the two slivers of Pulaski that are being cut out of the 2nd are 65% and 70% nonwhite.

@tippi31 brings up the fact that it’s been hard for #arleg to keep up with meetings, so to expect the public to do so is not right. #arpx #arnews #FairMapsAR

Good morning from day 2 of #arleg where they're up and at 'em early in the Senate. On the agenda: congressional maps and bills re: employer-mandated vaccines. Watch here: senate.arkansas.gov/todays-live-st…

#arpx 1/2
#CovidVaccines will be the hot topic today, specifically the right of private business to protect their employees and clients.

Requiring immunization records isn’t a radical or new concept…
