On Wednesday the Arkansas Senate unanimously passed S.B. 662.
This good bill by Sen. Ricky Hill (R – Cabot), Sen. Missy Irvin (R – Mountain View), and Rep. Cameron Cooper (R – Romance) establishes a Day of Prayer for Arkansas Students.
S.B. 662 calls on the citizens to “pray, meditate, or otherwise reflect upon” students, teachers, school administrators, and schools” on the last Wednesday of September every year.
The bill is similar to a Kentucky law.
The bill now goes to the Arkansas House of Representatives.
