Message to Our Constituents Arkansas legislators have been convening at our State Capitol since 1911. The blue print on the cover of this book was drafted by architect F.H. Peckwell. It shows how desks were to be designed and placed in the House Chamber. These plans were never used until last year.
After a recent discovery by our Capitol historian, the blue prints were handed to contractors to use in the restoration of the House Chamber. This design not only creates more space but brings the chamber back to what the first designers of the Capitol had in mind.
Blue prints also serve as a reminder that our state and form of government were carefully crafted. We have an opportunity to show Arkansas what the original architects of our constitution had in mind when it comes to serving the people.
The preamble to our constitution says, “We the People of Arkansas, grateful to the Almighty God for the privilege of choosing our own form of government, for our civil and religious liberties, and desiring to perpetuate its blessings, and secure the same to ourselves and posterity do ordain and establish this constitution.”
It is a privilege to be a part of Arkansas government and to serve you. This booklet was designed to provide you with contact information for your legislators and to answer frequently asked questions about the law making process.
Our diverse backgrounds serve to bring a multitude of perspectives when considering legislation. The one thing we all have in common is that we answer to the people of Arkansas.
