this guy wants to be your gynecologist, so that seems bad for everyone.

[Attorney General Tim Griffin @AGTimGriffin]

As I have long said, changing the Arkansas Constitution involves a rigorous process, as it should, and it requires sponsors to adhere to all applicable laws and rules. In this instance, the sponsors failed to follow the law, specifically a simple and straightforward affidavit requirement that other ballot committees followed. Failure to follow such a basic requirement is inexcusable: the #abortion advocates have no one to blame but themselves. #arnews

Checking in on a certain KARK reporter

Tiny-ass box, it seems

[Ben @benjamincody_]

tfw you only got *2 pages* in tha box

[The Indoctrinatrix @gelderbailey]

A governor who attacks the efforts of 100K+ of her own constituents, insulting them based on mistaken, incomplete information supplied by her own administration?
I’d call that immoral and incompetent.

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

John Thurston, paragon of civic responsibility and democratic values, lied about something? NO, surely not. It cannot be! /s

Aside from the issue on the petition itself, this attempt to subvert democracy is friggin gross.

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

Absolutely wild reporting from Capitol reporters @kark @ArkansasOnline letting anti-choice crowd drive the narrative re: abortion amendment. Still haven't posted @arlibertynow's statement from last night on socials. Buried deep in old reporting.

Jerry absolutely shaking in his boots

[Arkansas Times @ArkTimes]

A fake email went out Thursday telling canvassers to put down their clipboards because the needed signatures were all in hand. Organizers of the push to put the AR Abortion Amendment on the ballot kept working. https://t.co/yh31bZ5oNb

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

Not to mention taking a page out of the Family Council's playbook and name dropping specific canvassers.

The fact this man has a seat at ANY table is just ridiculous.

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

Saying this is a controversy is basically journalistic malpractice lol. This was entirely manufactured by Horton. Organizers were requesting legal access. https://t.co/QkXC7L9uhK

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

Horton is a master of this kind of BS, and it's frustrating to see KUAR fall for it hook, line, and sinker and handing a rash of bad press to the Educational Amendment folks on the final push. #arpx

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

Unsurprising, but continually disappointing. We're dead last or fighting for dead last in just about every metric across the board, and you know what helps that, you know, not be the case? Money.

[Rep. Nicole Clowney @NicoleClowneyAR]

Yet another tax cut just overwhelmingly passed the Arkansas House. I proudly voted NO. And I will continue to vote no as long as my constituents have their critical services cut or underfunded, as they have, year over year, with every cut.

State government is what we make of it; elections are coming up, but it's easy to get in touch with your legislators until then.

Call, email, write. Over, and over, and over again.

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

Lots coming down the pipeline for the next week: special session, ALC, and more.

What's the government doing for you? Giving handouts to the wealthy while it starves essential services, appointing unqualified people to important governmental bodies, and...

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

... fixing problems of its own making by spending over $100k of taxpayer money.

Don't like any of this? We don't either. Exercise your right to direct democracy and let your reps/senators know you hate this tax cut.

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

With Sandefer's resignation, Conway ISD has another chance at moderation. https://t.co/uuyGZfkRPq

[Marcus @Attorney_Marcus]

I don’t really think we have to put too much weight in what’s “backwards” from a guy implicated in a federal investigation for bid-rigging but what do I know

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

Supermajorities are bad for everyone, not just the minority party. #arpx #arleg #votingrights

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

Rep. Ray can't count, apparently.

Yes, they passed. But it's hardly "overwhelmingly" when you're losing folks like Josh Bryant (in the House at the time) and Breanne Davis from your overwhelming supermajority.

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

Also not saying much to say this Supreme Court passed them unanimously. Only one party in that particular courtroom. One of the Justices used to be chair of the damn Arkansas GOP!

We have one of the lowest voting rates in the nation, and that's by design folks. Laws like this.

[David Ray @DavidARay]

They were not “controversial.” They overwhelmingly passed both House & Senate, were signed by the Governor, & upheld *unanimously* by the Supreme Court. These commonsense election integrity measures were only opposed by a radical fringe. #arpx #arleg

[Liberty and Justice Arkansas @LibertyJustAR]

These absolutely were and are controversial, and you only have to watch about five minutes of the committee meetings and floor votes to see that. Calling Bryant and Davis the "radical fringe" is wild.
