#Sb199 (medical malpractice/Trans youth healthcare ban) is up for consideration in the #arleg Senate.

“What this bill says is we know better than these 20 kids and their parents” -Sen. Tucker speaking against #SB199 #arpx

“We need to have bills that are based on evidence, not theories” -Sen. Tucker speaking against #SB199

#arpx #arleg
“What we’re saying is that we have the authority to make these decisions for people” straight from Sullivan’s mouth, y’all.

It’s not about protecting children. It’s about the #arleg using their power to target people that don’t believe what they believe. This is not governing
#SB199 has passed the #arleg Senate with a vote of 29Y and 6N (party lines). It’s moving on to the House. #arpx

#SB254 is up in committee. This bill would get rid of write in candidates. The goal is to “streamline”

What do you think about it? #arpx #arleg

Context: Sen. Dan Sullivan was behind the Craighead Co. ballot petition that slashed the library's budget in half — all b/c the library had a table with a PRIDE display: #arpx #arleg kait8.com/2022/09/29/sen…
Sen. Sullivan now brings his library crusade to the Senate. SB81 would make it illegal for libraries to post "obscene material" or distribute library materials that are "harmful" to minors. #arpx #arleg arkleg.state.ar.us/Bills/FTPDocum…

Some more of this today. House currently trying to decide if #SB731 is relevant to the call of session.

#SB731 is the right to privacy regarding #CovidVaccine status.
🚨Update on #SB731🚨

The #arleg House has voted to hear #SB731, despite the DFA testifying that the federal #covid relief funds CANNOT be used in the context of the bill. #arpx #arnews
Rep. Ray says that #SB731 will cause more issues; he says that this is creating a new protected class in #arpx law.

This extended session has really reviled rips within the #arleg GOP.

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.

#arpx #arleg #arnews
#SB731 has passed, but the emergency clause has failed.

Hammer is up next; still trying to get #HB1977’s emergency clause passed. #arpx #arleg Image
#HB1977’s emergency clause has failed.

#HB1982 is up next; but remember, the emergency clause failed yesterday in the House. Image

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.

#arpx #arleg #FairMapsAR
@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
