Alabama's Supreme Court ruling that frozen embryos are children should scare the hell out of us, Arkansas. Families w/ infertility may soon have to choose between parenthood or prosecution. The solution? Pass the #ARabortionamendment. #arpx forarpeople.org/alabama-alarm-…

ForARPeople1's tweet card. After an alarming decision by the Alabama Supreme Court, the landscape of reproductive healthcare in Arkansas is even more dire than before.

We are proud of the strong presence @nestle has in our state and excited that the largest food company in the WORLD is embracing and helping lead on President @realDonaldTrump’s MAHA agenda.

Update: It's the Judges' Association and the Sheriffs' Association. Full court press.

Just got word that @75arcounties plans to attempt to strong arm legislators into committing to vote for prison funding at their meetings this week. Call your county judges before Thursday morning. Tell them to stop the prison scam.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders had a lot to say about women empowerment in this tweet but the truth is this: Arkansas is one of the most DANGEROUS states to be a women. In fact, the states that have the highest maternal mortality rates are “Republican-led” states. So what is she talking…

Despite decades of evidence it won't work, corrections officials will spend $50K to drill two wells on Franklin Co. prison site. Their backup plans seem even worse, somehow. arktimes.com/arkansas-blog/…

Remember, months ago, she told you this site had already been studied extensively by teams of experts who determined it to be “the best place in the state” for a mega prison.

GGravel & Grit@GravelandGrit · Jun 26

@SarahHuckabee’s performative release of a preliminary site assessment a year post-purchase does little to assuage the legitimate concerns posed by this site selection and fails to address the cost escalations of the required mitigation efforts necessitated by the poor site…

Roe v. Wade was overturned three years ago today. Things for Arkansas families have gotten much, much worse since then, but instead of trying to fix them, the Governor and her cronies are refusing to deal with the maternal and infant mortality rates. forarpeople.org/three-years-af…

ForARPeople1's tweet card. Three years ago today, the Supreme Court overruled Roe v Wade, forcing millions of families nationwide to forgo healthcare.

This is the kind of hypocrisy we need cut out of our government--fighting tooth and nail to irresponsibly spend $825m during session, then railing against overspending when attention fades. We need a legislature that is committed to doing its job of regulating the state's purse…

Locals are still pushing hard against the Franklin County Prison boondoggle, and so are we. Around 42k students applied for vouchers via LEARNS for next year; at $7k/student, that's about $300 million. Our surplus is shrinking drastically. There's no money for this prison.

AAdam Watson@AdamInAR_ · Jun 4

The levels of absurdity and negligence are out of control. In what other world can you ignore your financier and plunge into an $825m project with less than 10% funding? Only in government.

Chicken farm very near the prison site drilled 4 250 ft. wells. All dry. Water utility said no water for farm. Now they pray for rain. But sure—let’s build a MEGA prison! Millions being committed. No water secured.

School lunch debt in Arkansas is a looming crisis. We spoke with four nutrition directors across the state to get a sense of the problem. It's grim. New on the website today: The scope of our school lunch debt crisis and how we've failed students. forarpeople.org/the-scope-of-a…

ForARPeople1's tweet card. Arkansas now feeds schoolkids breakfast for free. But a lunch debt crisis looms large over the state's school nutrition programs.

It took months too long, but this is great news for Arkansans.

Arkansas: @potus approved a major declaration to support recovery efforts after the March 14-15 severe storms and tornadoes. Residents in 9 declared counties can now apply for assistance at disasterassistance.gov. More info: fema.gov/press-release/…

It turns out this story goes much, much deeper. Long story short? Someone waltzed in and basically stole $300k from the state to abuse kids. forarpeople.org/jonesboro-figh…

NEW on the site today: Seen the White House budget proposal? Massive cuts to essential services across the board. But that's pretty familiar to Arkansans, who have been experiencing similar cuts for years. forarpeople.org/arkansas-is-wh…

ForARPeople1's tweet card. When government stops caring, people suffer. Arkansas is living proof—and now Trump wants to take that model nationwide. It’s time to fight back.
