The University of Arkansas for Medical Science’s leadership has decided to break state law by forcing vaccine mandates. The decision is a direct violation of state law and it puts the institution at severe risk. (Thread)

Reupping this thread because the Governor confirmed this is the major idea for the special session.
I think we are setting ourselves up for a Kansas type dilemma with this proposal. #arpx#arleg#ARNews
So if I understand this correctly, Senator Dismang is calling for accelerating the tax cut timeline we passed. That means the benefit of our surplus would only impact the top rate in both categories. What about the rest of the tax payers/citizens? #arpx#arleg
We were told if we passed a law like this in Arkansas, it wouldn’t stand. We heard a bunch of excuses and we should just wait for the Dobbs decision (which still hasn’t been officially released).
As we can now see in Oklahoma, that fear was wrong and foolish. #arpx#arleg
@brianPr86073081 @pilkingtonforar And if we just opened the stipend and ammo (it may be a little more for ammo at the current rate), we could allow teachers who have it or get it on their own to carry. We could have hundreds ready to go in weeks
FYI For $1.1 million, you can train and install one enhanced CCL staff member in every school in Arkansas. That includes an issued pistol ($800), certification cost ($150), 300 9mm training rounds ($65), and a $50 stipend for ear/eye pro and weapon maintenance. #arpx
It appears the article is saying federal House Democrats are filing the bill, since Arkansas has no federal Democrats. However, if Arkansas state House Democrats are, they will be soundly opposed by Republicans who stand for adults constitutional right. #arpx#arleg#ARNews
“One of the weakest of them all, really an embarrassment to the state of Arkansas, the Governor of Arkansas, Asa Hutchinson, noted ally to the trans community.” @TuckerCarlson with the absolute 🔥 tonight. #arpx#arleg#ARNews
That’s an easy conversation.
Should we strip legal adults of their fundamental right to protect themselves and their families because we are political cowards?
No. That’s a terrible idea.
End of conversation. #arpx#arleg#ARNews
I was a strong supporter of the 2nd Amendment in the past. But after watching how our government reacted the past two years under COVID-19, it is more important than ever we have the right to keep and bear arms. #arpx#arleg#ARNews
@Rbeckw2 Schools in Arkansas allow teachers/others to to carry guns w/enhanced? They have a multiple officers/private security on duty? They have physical barriers that control access and don’t have multiple soft points? They have 24/7 cameras being watched?
Oh, they don’t…
In Arkansas, we should secure every school the same way we do our State Captiol. Few public points of access, a strong police/security force, cameras, and more. And we should allow trained citizens to carry.
If we can protect our politicians, we can protect our kids. #arpx#arleg
@TomMarsLaw He put a bunch of anti-military, sexist, and other crap comments on here, and even turned away Dems (the comments I’ve heard from Dems in LR about him 😏). He is clout chasing, and THATS why he can’t quit me.
I’m going to mute him again, watch how many comments he still makes.😂
@TomMarsLaw Man, you being obsessed with me is creepy as hell. I’ve had you muted for like 3 months, AND you still can’t quit me.
Y’all want to know why? Tom is kind of a disgraced loser. He got ran away from Walmart for “activities”, he burned every political bridge, and he is sexist.
They don’t use AR-15s in the Marine Corps.
He lying about when he was allowed to “load” an M-4.
And the shooter had legal background check.
Nothing worse than a vet who uses his statues to lie to the American public. In the military, we call them “Blue Falcons.” #arpx
As Joe Biden and the left ramp up the attacks on our Second Amendment rights, it’s important we have strong conservatives in office who will fight back.
What we don’t need is Republicans who will “compromise” our rights for political convenience. #arpx

I knew this was a good idea. But if Gennie with a G (do you really have to write “with a G” when we can read the G), the dark money stogie of #arpx, attacks it, I know it’s gold. Thanks for the positive reinforcement Jen…I mean Gennie…
@TomMarsLaw Hey Tom, good to see you are still obsessed with me. It’s creepy for sure.
And thanks on the new job congrats. I know it’s honest work. Some of us like doing that, rather than bribing Mexican officials to put more money in our pockets. 😊
If the president is out there effectively calling for a ban on most handguns, it's going to be very difficult for a bipartisan gun bill to come together in the Senate. https://t.co/pBQjLCT7dZ
During Covid, randos on Twitter understood things like seasonality before public health officials. Now the President, the CiC, knows less about ballistics than my 5 year old. It’s politics over competence.
The ignorance about guns starts at the top in the Democrat Party. Biden is talking about banning one of the most common self-defense rounds. 9mm bullets DON’T do what he said. It’s the most common round in pistols.
And he just made them “high-caliber weapons” so he can ban them.
“A 9 mm bullet blows the lung out of the body," @POTUS told reporters on the South Lawn of the White House.
"So the idea of these high-caliber weapons — there’s simply no rational basis for it in terms of self-protection, hunting"
