Arkansas Legislature Near End Of Session Faces School Revenue
The Arkansas legislature nears its fifth week of an eight week session with horse racing and liquor legalization advanced. The paper urges Governor Futrell to deliver a school revenue bill before adjournment, arguing alcohol and racing are not a sufficient school solution and warning that sales tax progress may be stalled without broader reforms. It criticizes political motives and calls for concrete revenue measures to fund public schools and curb illicit trade.
