Tontitown Passes Resolution, Affirms It Is A Pro-Life City

On February 1, the Tontitown City Council passed a good resolution affirming that the community is Pro-Life.

Tontitown is in Washington County — which passed its own Pro-Life Resolution in July of 2021.

Last year the Arkansas Legislature passed Act 392 of 2021 by Rep. Kendon Underwood (R – Cave Springs) and Sen. Gary Stubblefield (R – Branch).

This good law affirms that cities and counties can designate themselves as Pro-Life.

Act 392 also says that Pro-Life Communities can install signs or banners announcing that they are Pro-Life.

To date, 19 counties and 11 cities and towns have passed resolutions recognizing unborn children and affirming that they are Pro-Life.

Benton, WashingtonCrawfordCleburnePopeJacksonSalineFaulknerPerrySebastianLeeWhitePrairieSearcyCarrolNewtonBoone, Hot Spring, and Madison counties have adopted Pro-Life resolutions — and so have the cities and towns of MariannaRussellvilleSpringdaleLaGrangeMoroAubrey, Haynes, MarshallWestern Grove, and Leslie.

Voters in Tontitown should be proud of their city council for taking a pro-life stand. We look forward to other cities and counties passing Pro-Life resolutions in the coming weeks.

Madison County Approves Pro-Life Resolution

On Monday the Madison County Quorum Court approved a resolution designating the Northwest Arkansas county as Pro-Life.

Last year the Arkansas Legislature passed Act 392 of 2021 by Rep. Kendon Underwood (R – Cave Springs) and Sen. Gary Stubblefield (R – Branch).

This good law affirms that cities and counties can designate themselves as Pro-Life.

Act 392 also says that Pro-Life Communities can install signs or banners announcing that they are Pro-Life.

To date, 19 counties and 10 cities and towns have passed resolutions recognizing unborn children and affirming that they are Pro-Life.

It makes sense that so many communities in Arkansas would vote to affirm that they are Pro-Life.

Arkansas is the most pro-life state in America.

Arkansans overwhelmingly believe abortion ought to be either completely illegal or restricted to certain situations.

The state legislature passed a record number of pro-life laws last year and 44 pro-life laws since 2011.

Family Council congratulates Madison County on becoming Arkansas’ latest Pro-Life Community. We look forward to other cities and counties passing Pro-Life resolutions in the future.

City of Leslie Passes Pro-Life Resolution

On March 7 the Leslie City Council passed a resolution affirming that Leslie is a Pro-Life City.

Leslie — which is in Searcy County, in the northern region of the state — joins a growing list of communities that have declared they are Pro-Life.

Last year the Arkansas Legislature passed Act 392 of 2021 by Rep. Kendon Underwood (R – Cave Springs) and Sen. Gary Stubblefield (R – Branch).

This good law affirms that cities and counties can designate themselves as Pro-Life.
