Sen. Ballinger presents H.B. 1589 to the Arkansas Senate.
On Monday the Arkansas Senate passed H.B. 1589 by a vote of 29 to six. The bill previously passed the Arkansas House of Representatives.
This good bill by Rep. Harlan Breaux (R – Holiday Island) and Sen. Bob Ballinger (R – Ozark) prohibits government entities, including public schools, in Arkansas from engaging in transactions with abortion providers and affiliates of abortion providers.
H.B. 1589 is a good bill that will help ensure that Arkansas does not spend any taxpayer dollars subsidizing abortionists and their affiliates.
This good bill by Rep. Sonia Barker (R – Smackover) and Sen. Blake Johnson (R – Corning) updates Arkansas’ restrictions on abortion drugs like RU-486.
In the coming months we expect the Biden/Harris Administration to ease restrictions on abortion-inducing drugs.
H.B. 1402 will help keep restrictions on abortion drugs in place at the state level — even if the federal government changes its regulations.
H.B. 1402 outlines requirements that abortionists must follow in administering abortion-inducing drugs, and it prohibits abortion drugs from being delivered by mail in Arkansas.
It also updates current law to ensure doctors who perform chemical abortions are credentialed to handle abortion complications and can transfer the woman to a hospital if she experiences complications.
H.B. 1402 is a good bill that will protect unborn children from being killed in chemical abortions. It now goes to the governor to become law.
The U.S. Supreme Court handed down its infamous Roe v. Wade abortion decision on January 22, 1973. The resolution commemorates the millions of unborn babies whose lives have been lost to abortion.
The Alabama resolution is similar to Arkansas’ H.C.R. 1007 by Rep. Jim Wooten (R – Beebe) and Sen. Jason Rapert (R – Conway).
H.C.R. 1007 recognizes January 22 as The Day of Tears in Arkansas. It acknowledges the 61 million unborn babies killed in abortion in America over the past five decades, and it encourages Arkansans to lower their flags to half-staff on January 22 to mourn the innocent children who have lost their lives.

Sen. Jason Rapert (R – Conway) is the lead senate sponsor of pro-life resolution H.C.R. 1007.
H.C.R. 1007 passed the Arkansas House on January 21. It has since been sent to the Senate Public Health Committee for consideration.
