The Arkansas Legislative Council met this week to review a wide range of issues affecting education, state finances, energy policy, healthcare, and government operations.

Members began by reviewing the state's latest revenue report. Gross General Revenue collections for the fiscal year-to-date totaled approximately $7.76 billion, an increase of $323.6 million, or 4.4%, compared to the same period last year. Net General Revenue Available for distribution reached $6.36 billion, up $456.8 million, or 7.7%, from May 2025. The Department of Finance and Administration also reported that it is projecting a surplus of approximately $585.8 million for the current fiscal year, which ends June 30.

Lawmakers reviewed new rules implementing Arkansas's Wind Energy Development Act. The rules establish permitting requirements, safety standards, environmental review procedures, and decommissioning requirements for large-scale wind energy projects across the state.

The council also approved a proposed advertising and marketing contract for the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery and approved new health insurance contribution rates for state employees and public school employees for the upcoming plan year.

Lawmakers approved an emergency rule implementing Act 919 of 2025, which allows certain previously consolidated school districts to separate and operate as independent, isolated school districts under specific circumstances. The rule provides funding support for districts affected by those detachments as several isolated school districts prepare to operate independently beginning in the 2026-27 school year.

Thank you to the Arkansas Electric Coop PAC for the opportunity to speak at their luncheon.

Growing up on a row-crop farm in rural Arkansas, I saw firsthand the important role electric cooperatives play in our communities. Affordable, reliable energy powers everything from agriculture and healthcare to education and small businesses, and it’s critical to Arkansas’s future. I appreciate the work our cooperatives do every day to keep Arkansas moving forward.

Today, we celebrate 190 years of Arkansas statehood and the rich history, resilience, and spirit that define our great state. From the Ozarks to the Delta, there’s no place quite like The Natural State.

Happy 190th, Arkansas!

Today, we celebrated a life and generational change right here in Cabot, Arkansas! Since 2016, only 7 states have sold jackpot winning tickets worth $1B or more. But….now there are 8! Add Arkansas to the list, Cabot, Arkansas!

Local retailers like Murphy USA # 7879 play a pivotal role in connecting statewide lottery programs to everyday Arkansans. That helps create milestone moments like today.

Arkansas communities, retailers, and the lottery form a partnership that delivers!

Many thanks to the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery, to Murphy USA and to the City Of Cabot for making this event so special.

While we have a $1.8B winner, thanks to the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery, over 837,000 kids have been winners. Through scholarships generated by the lottery, they have won a greater chance on higher educational change and that can be life changing, as well.

Remembering the courage that changed the course of history.

On June 6, 1944, over 150,000 Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy. Today, we honor the incredible bravery, sacrifice, and resolve of those who fought to liberate Europe and defend freedom.

Yesterday marked an exciting milestone as we celebrated the ribbon cutting of AEDD, Inc.’s new facility in Cabot. ✂️

This has been a project close to my heart, and I was honored to provide opening remarks alongside so many dedicated community leaders. For more than 50 years, AEDD has empowered Arkansans with disabilities through workforce development, independent living services, and programs that create opportunities for success.

Congratulations to the entire AEDD team on this incredible achievement. This investment will make a lasting difference for individuals, families, and communities across Arkansas, and I'm proud to have played a small part in helping bring it to fruition.
