America’s 250th Anniversary is a wonderful opportunity to teach the next generation what it means to be an American. I am proud to open the first exhibit of America 250 at the Arkansas State Capitol: Founding Fathers.

Great speaking with the members of the Cabot Rotary Club today about the important work happening across Arkansas — from protecting election integrity and improving business services to preserving and enhancing our State Capitol for future generations. Appreciate the invitation and the opportunity to share what we’re working on for the people of Arkansas.

We are thankful for Attorney General Tim Griffin and his team for demonstrating a matchless commitment to protecting the integrity of Arkansas elections. The investigation and arrests of eight individuals on voter registration fraud charges make clear that unlawful activity will not be tolerated.

The first K9 officer in Arkansas State Capitol Police history is now on duty — another step forward in protecting the Capitol from potential threats while keeping it accessible to the people it belongs to.

Our office always enjoys educating young voters and emphasizing the importance of civic engagement. Thanks to the great kids who attended our Young Voter Workshop this year and our incredible staff who helped put on the successful event.

Arkansas’s best days are ahead of it. Today was a small but meaningful symbol that we are not interested in managing a slow decline of our state, city, or our nation. Instead, we are going to build, expand and maintain the good, the true, and the beautiful. The State Capitol’s bronze doors are the birthright of every Arkansan, and I was proud to open them today.

For the first time in 25 years, the State Capitol’s iconic bronze doors will welcome the public again — beginning this Friday from 9 a.m.–12 p.m. What once closed after 9/11 is now reopening thanks to modern security and a renewed commitment to access.

In Arkansas, we believe our government should exist to benefit Arkansans, never foreign governments. Today, we are announcing the Combating Hostile Foreign Influence Rule. It is in effect, and we are accepting reports online. This rule wouldn’t exist if not for the incredible work of Mindy McAlindon and Matt McKee to get legislation to Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who has fought every single day to protect Arkansans from foreign influence. Working for Governor Sanders to fight China buying our farmland was the honor of a lifetime, and I will carry that spirit into every policy I shape.

Successful day in northwest Arkansas today! Thank you to the Northwest Arkansas Realtors Association for having me as the guest speaker for today’s meeting. My team was also able to stop by our business office in Fayetteville and see the incredible progress they’ve made the last several months to provide quicker service and turnaround times for filings. Always encouraged by my time in this part of the state!

We’ve had a busy first few days of candidate filing at the State Capitol! 📅 Reminder: The candidate filing period will close on November 12 this year, as state offices will be closed November 11 in observance of Veterans Day.

➡️ 14 days ➡️ 1 day. That’s how Arkansas does business. Government should never stand in the way of growth. Businesses, not government, will make our state’s economy flourish. That’s why my office cut business filing times from 14 days to just one, over a 90% reduction in wait times. We’re cutting red tape and making Arkansas a truly pro-business state.
