directory of the 2021 Arkansas Legislature Arkansas Citizens First Congress www.citizensfirst.org | [email protected] 1308 West Second Street. Little Rock, Arkansas 72201 PLEASE HELP! We need your support to ensure that our legislators are held accountable for the votes they take on Arkansas’s future. Your donations help guarantee that the voices of local, grassroots Arkansans are heard by our lawmakers. Your donations help pay for educating Arkansas on how they can impact the process with resources like this legislative directory. It’s generally downloaded and printed thousands of times per session. Your donations help us engage more Arkansans in the political process. Your support helps us watchdog the legislature and sift through the thousands of bills that will be filed throughout the session. We educate the public about what will impact them and how they can make a difference, and we expose the attempts to undermine our rights and values when our backs are turned. You have a whole team of experienced staff and volunteers behind you when you are part of the Citizens First Congress. Your donations allow us to mobilize thousands of Arkansans to contact their legislators, hold press conferences and rallies that expose bad legislation and build coalitions that protect our values. We simply cannot do it without you. Please give today, so we can continue to push our elected officials to prioritize the needs of Arkansas’s families. Donate online at www.arpanel.org. The Arkansas Citizens First Congress is a multi-issue and non-partisan coalition of organizations who work together for progressive change in state policy. Coalition members come from all corners of the state and work on many different issues. At the Arkansas Legislature, the coalition members advocate together on a common agenda. They also watchdog the legislature and advocate against threats to progressive policy. The Arkansas Public Policy Panel advances social and economic justice through respect for human dignity, diversity, empowerment and an inclusive, fair and transparent political process. The Panel provides hands-on experience in civic participation by helping community groups organize, create infrastructure, set goals and develop action plans to reach those goals.
