Family Council Has 50,000 More Voter’s Guides to Give Away

Arkansas Voter's Guide,

In the past two weeks we have distributed roughly 50,000 copies of the Arkansas Voter’s Guide, and the orders are still coming in. Demand for the Arkansas Voter’s Guide is especially high this year. That’s why we made the decision to print 50,000 more copies.

The Arkansas Voter’s Guide is the state’s leading, nonpartisan source for candidate information. We survey candidates on a variety of issues, and we publish their survey responses in print and online. Arkansans have used our guide to cast informed votes every election year since 1990.

If you or a friend needs copies of the Arkansas Voter’s Guide, click here or call our office at (501) 375-7000.

We have 50,000 copies of the Arkansas Voter’s Guide in the office, but over 2,000 have already been requested by churches and individuals across the state.

If you or your church has not already received free copies of the Arkansas Voter’s Guide, order today. If you have request copies, but could use a few more, order as many as you think you will be able to give away.

If you have any questions, please call our office at (501) 375-7000.

Family Council Releases Summaries of Ballot Issues

Elections,

capitol1_smWhen it comes of elections, candidates usually get most of the attention. However, besides picking their leaders, Arkansas voters also get to make their own laws via ballot issues.

Ballot issues are proposed laws and constitutional amendments that voters decide, collectively, to adopt or reject. In Arkansas, ballot issues can be referred to the people by the legislature or by a petition drive.

As of this writing, five ballot issues are slated to be voted on this November. To the best of our ability, we have summarized the proposed ballot issues to give voters as clear a picture as possible of what each proposal would do, if passed.

All printed copies of the Arkansas Voter’s Guide include a copy of these summaries (order your printed guides here or call our office at 501-375-7000). If you have any questions about the ballot issues or the summaries below, feel free to call our office at (501) 375-7000.

ISSUE NO. 1: (SJR 7) A Proposed State Constitutional Amendment Concerning Review and Approval of Administrative Rules.

Elections

Ever wonder what your church can and cannot say or do during an election season?

Is it OK for a candidate to come to your church? Can the pastor talk about a ballot issue from the pulpit? The attorneys at Alliance Defending Freedom have you covered.

ADF is one of the nation’s leading legal advocates for religious freedom among churches, ministers, educators, and others. They help pastors and churches know the boundaries of what a pastor or a church can do when it comes to issue advocacy and elections.

We have condensed some of ADF’s guidelines into a simple, one-page flyer available here.
