We need your support to hold our legislators accountable. Your donations help guarantee that the voices of local, grassroots Arkansans are heard. Your donations help us engage more Arkansans in the political process. We will send thousands of alerts and fact sheets in the coming months, hold town hall forums, make thousands of phone calls and more. This legislative directory is downloaded and printed thousands of times per session. Your support helps us watchdog the legislature. We sift through the thousands of bills that will be filedthroughout the session. We attend the committee hearings and monitor the process. We educate the public about how they can make a difference to protect our rights and values. You have a whole team of experienced staff and volunteers behind you when you are part of the Citizens First Congress. We simply cannot do it without you. Our power to make a difference comes from people just like you making their voices heard across the state. That’s what makes change happen. Otherwise the special interests control the process.
