Washington, DC - Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) released the below statement on this week’s vote on House Democrats’ misguided gun control legislation. Womack voted to defend the Second Amendment rights of Arkansans and Americans:

Wisper Internet is pleased to announce a major upgrade to its network serving households in the communities of Taneyville, Forsyth and Kissee Mills and beyond speeds of up to 400 Mbps with Tarana technology.

Little Rock – Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge, as part of a 20-state coalition, filed an amicus brief urging the Supreme Court of the United States to defend the First Amendment rights of business owners.

Washington, DC - Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) released the below statement after House Democrats once again failed to produce a budget for Fiscal Year 2023. Instead, they are purposely diverting from proper budget and appropriations processes to allow them to continue their out-of-control spending habits without debate or accountability. The American people haven’t seen a legitimate budget produced in the House since Womack was Chairman of the Budget Committee:

The American Legion Post #61 of Yellville held its monthly meeting June 9, 2022. Meeting was called to order by Commander; Dustin Beals at 18:00 hrs.

Womack (AR-3) this week helped introduce the STOP II, Secure Every School, and Protect our Nation’s Children Act. The legislation builds on the STOP School Violence Act signed into law in 2018 to fund $1 billion for school resource officers, $1 billion for mental health guidance counselors, and $5 billion for hardening schools, active shooter training, and training for law enforcement, school officials, and students to intervene before a student reaches a breaking point. The $7 billion legislation is paid for with already approved, yet unused COVID-19 funds.

This week, officials from the Arkansas Center for School Safety (ACSS) provided members of the House and Senate Education Committees with an update on school safety measures taken in recent years. In 2018, the Governor created the Safe Schools Commission to assess the state of school security in Arkansas.
