Family Council Releases Summaries of Ballot Issues

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.

We Need to Get Rid of 30,000 Voter’s Guides — No Matter What!

I have a really great problem that I need your help solving: We have roughly 30,000 printed copies of the 2014 Arkansas Voter’s Guide sitting in our office, waiting to be mailed out all over the state, and we need people to send them to.

We are already in the process of mailing about 20,000 copies of the guide to our friends and various churches all over Arkansas. However, we would like to give away at least 50,000, total.

Do you have friends or family members who could use the Arkansas Voter’s Guide? What about your church, Bible study group, Sunday school class, or civic club?

The Arkansas Voter’s Guide is a free service we are happy to offer. It is the only nonpartisan, statewide guide that tells voters where their candidates stand on a variety of issues that matter to them. Because it is nonpartisan, churches can distribute the guide without running afoul of any campaign laws or tax regulations.

You can order copies of the Arkansas Voter’s Guide today by calling our office at (501) 375-7000 or going online at www.ArkansasVotersGuide.com.

We have 30,000 copies of the guide sitting in our office, but they won’t be there for long. Demand is high, so order copies for you, your family, your friends, and your church right away!
