Make A Difference!

Dear Senators and Representatives:

I ask you to support the Citizens First Congress' Ten Priorities for a Better Arkansas.

• Improve our schools and close the education achievement gap.
• Create green jobs, build a new energy economy and fight global warming by enacting the recommendations of the Global Warming Commission.
• Do more to fight HIV/AIDS in rural and minority communities by enacting the recommendations of the Minority HIV/AIDS Task Force.
• Protect our water for drinking, recreation and wildlife by creating a Task Force on Arkansas Water Resources.
• Create more rural and small business economic development.
• Give working families tax relief while meeting our obligations with fair tax policies.
• Make sure everyone in Arkansas is treated fairly by creating an Arkansas Civil Rights Commission to investigate and mediate civil rights abuses.
• Give every Arkansas child access to college by making sure every student graduating from an Arkansas school has the opportunity to pay in-state college tuition.
• Make sure that workers get paid for their work by improving wage theft laws.
• Help farmers and landowners protect their property and heritage by expanding state incentives for land conservation.
