Arkansas lawmakers gathered Thursday to discuss the recent legislative session. At a summit held by Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families, Democratic Reps. Andrew Collins and Ashley Hudson and Republican Rep. Julie Mayberry were critical of the pace at which the legislature moves.
“We have too many bills too fast,” Mayberry said. “We don't spend enough time in the interim working on those bills before they come forward."
After studying it, Mayberry says 41% of bills were sent to the governor's desk in the last three days of session.
