On Tuesday the Senate State Agencies Committee passed S.J.R. 14.
This good proposal by Sen. Jason Rapert (R – Conway) and Rep. Jimmy Gazaway (R – Paragould) amends the Arkansas Constitution.
It prevents the government from burdening a person’s free exercise of religion.
S.J.R. 14 is similar to Arkansas’ state Religious Freedom Restoration Act. However, it writes religious freedoms into the Arkansas Constitution instead of state law.
Family Council strongly supports this good amendment to the Arkansas Constitution.
If passed by the Arkansas Legislature, S.J.R. 14 would be placed on the 2022 General Election ballot to give voters the opportunity to decide if they want to add S.J.R. 14 to the Arkansas Constitution.
You can call (501) 682-2902 to leave a message asking your state senator to support S.J.R. 14, the Religious Freedom Amendment.
