From serving our country in uniform to caring for our land, veterans continue to make a difference. Programs like #ArmedToFarm help connect veterans with the opportunities, resources and community to grow their future in agriculture. Today and every day, we honor their service. #VeteransDay

This Veterans Day, we honor the men and women who answered the call to serve and sacrificed so much to defend our freedoms. We are grateful to those who have worn our nation’s uniform, especially the more than 200,000 veterans who call The Natural State home. Their service must never be forgotten.

Did you know 49% of teens who misuse prescription drugs get them from friends or family? This week’s Arkansas Democrat-Gazette Player of the Week, Easton Barksdale of Sheridan, completed 33 of 53 passes for 726 yards and 8 touchdowns, leading the Yellowjackets to a 91-65 victory and their first conference championship since 1987. Now, he’s helping raise awareness about fentanyl poisoning and overdose prevention through Coaches vs. Overdoses.

Data from the National Association of Manufacturers (@ShopFloorNAM) shows that permitting delays are costing America’s manufacturers $12.1 billion every year! That is a staggering amount of development left on the sidelines.   All this has led to lost jobs, missed economic opportunities, and higher prices across America. Passing the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act could not be more urgent. nam.org/permitting-delays-en…

Enjoyed meeting with a group of young Arkansas farmers and ranchers to hear firsthand about the challenges facing our ag industry. Farmers continue to navigate significant economic pressures, making it more important than ever for Congress to pass Farm Bill 2.0, which provides the certainty and support they need. I appreciate their commitment to keeping Arkansas agriculture strong. #ARinDC

America needs power to fuel our economy and keep energy prices low. But massive projects like Coulee Dam aren’t built in America today because of an outdated permitting system. Senate Republicans are changing that and lowering your energy costs.

Proud to see an Arkansan serving as DAV’s National Commander. I appreciate Commander Donovan and DAV’s continued partnership and their dedication to strengthening the services and benefits our veterans have earned.
National Commander John Donovan and leadership from DAV Washington Headquarters met with Sen. @JohnBoozman to discuss how we can continue working together through the remaining 119th Congress and our priorities moving forward in the upcoming 120th Congress.

I’m pleased to see Arkansas’s second year Rural Health Transformation Program funding award is almost $208 million. I know Gov. @SarahHuckabee and her team will be investing in even more innovative approaches to deliver quality care to every Arkansan. hhs.gov/press-room/trump-adm…

That’s a wrap on day one of the ArFB YF&R Committee’s trip to Washington, D.C., advocating on behalf of Arkansas farmers and ranchers. The day included visits with USDA, the American Farm Bureau Federation and the Canadian Embassy, along with meetings with Arkansas Sens. Tom Cotton and John Boozman to discuss the need for a new farm bill.

Great news for Arkansas and our country that the Senate has advanced bipartisan permitting reform. We need to cut the red tape and make it easier to get critical infrastructure projects started.
To lead the world, we have to build in America. The Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act will lower costs and get America building again.

A strong community is one that makes sure every individual has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive. For more than five decades, Toni Wilson Ward has dedicated herself to serving children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families through Stepping Stone School. What began with six children in 1972 has grown to serve more than 400 individuals today. Her commitment is a powerful example of the difference one person can make in the lives of so many. #VoicesOfArkansas

Farmers don’t want another extension; they need the updated tools and predictability that a five-year Farm Bill provides. That’s why committee leaders on both sides of the aisle in the Senate and House have been working to develop a bipartisan bill that can pass both chambers. There is a shared commitment to getting this across the finish line and delivering a Farm Bill that can be signed into law this year.
Rural America has waited long enough. It's time for Congress to #FinishtheFarmBill and have it signed into law this year. In an AgriNews opinion piece, Farm Credit Council President and CEO Christy Seyfert makes the case that passing a full, five-year Farm Bill will strengthen the tools available to today’s producers and help position the next generation of farmers and ranchers for success. Temporary extensions are no substitute for long-term certainty. Rural America can’t afford another delay. Read more 🔗 Seyfert: America needs a farm bill now – AgriNews agrinews-pubs.com/community-…

The men and women who served during Operations Desert Storm and Desert Shield answered our nation’s call and helped liberate Kuwait from Iraqi aggression. Their courage and sacrifice deserve to be remembered for generations to come.
