Plan to distribute new teacher funds faces opposition
Arkansas lawmakers will hear a plan from the Arkansas Education Association and the state Education Department to distribute any new teacher salary funds by district. The committee supported a 2 to 1 local-to-local funding ratio, opposed by Sam Bratton who argued it won’t close pay gaps. Leroy Gattin backed a 3 to 1 ratio, while Robert Nix urged action now to address money needs, proposing support for a $30 plan.

Job Safety Issue Faces House Debate on Standards
Washington AP reports a House debate opens over a nationwide job safety bill. The Education and Labor Committee-backed version would empower the labor secretary to set monitor and enforce safety standards for about 80 million workers. A White House-supported substitute proposes a five member standards board and a three member appeals commission appointed by the president. Industry and business favor the substitute arguing the original grants too much power to the labor secretary and threatens property rights.

Calls Gillham Dam Work Stop Disastrous
U S Atty Dillahunty warned a preliminary injunction to halt work on the Gillham Dam would set a disastrous precedent. He argued Congress authorized the project in 1958 and funding exists, while a trial will decide a possible permanent injunction. Wildlife groups seek the halt under environmental law, though opponents cite non retroactivity for current projects.
