Yes, the Arkansas Legislature is in town and by the time you read this letter almost 1,000 bills will be making their way through the legislature. For me, this is like a duck hunter with a sky full of mallards or a guy on the deer stand surrounded by ten-point bucks so many targets. Hate Crimes: Senate Bill 35 by Senator Bill Walker of Little Rock provides enhanced penalties for crimes committed because of the victims race, color, religion, ethnicity, national origin, ancestry, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, or disability. Backers of the bill include Attorney General Pryor, Senate Pro-Tem. Beebe, and House Speaker Shane Broadway. This bill will provide special status for homosexuals as well as creating a situation where people are punished not only for their deeds, but also for their thoughts. It also violates to concept of equal justice by making crimes committed against certain categories of people more severely punished than others. Call your State Senator at (501) 682-2902 and voice your opinion on this bill.

Vitamin Settlement Benefits Arkansas Food Programs arkansas Attorney general Mike Beebe says the $750000 settlement will be given The program helps overweight children and their families make permanent, http://www.consumeraffairs.com/news04/2005/ar_vitamins.html
Extractions: A settlement in a class action suit against vitamin manufacturers will feed a lot of hungry people in Arkansas. Arkansas Attorney General Mike Beebe says the $750,000 settlement will be given to organizations that help feed the hungry and improve the nutritional health of people in Arkansas. The action against vitamin manufacturers charged an illegal price-fixing conspiracy regarding vitamin additives in food products. Beebe says the action affected all Arkansans, and therefore settlement funds could not be distributed to individuals. Instead, the palntiffs contacted the Attorney General's Office for assistance in determining statewide programs that would use the money in their work to improve the health and nutrition of Arkansans statewide. $350,000 will go to the Meals On Wheels Association of America. Through contracted agencies in all 75 Arkansas counties, Meals On Wheels feeds nutritious, hot-or-frozen food to elderly, homebound people who cannot shop or prepare their own meals. An additional $350,000 will go to the Arkansas Hunger Relief Alliance (ARHA). In 2004, ARHA provided 13.6 million pounds of food to nearly 1,000 emergency food pantries, homeless shelters, soup kitchens and other organizations that work to reduce hunger in the state.

Most financial aid is awarded according to individual need and educational costs. The federal government, the state government, postsecondary institutions, and private organizations provide financial aid to eligible students in the form of grants, scholarships, loans, and employment. Grants and scholarships are awarded based on either financial need or merit, and do not have to be paid back. Employment can be a job provided by the college and can be on or off campus. A loan is money provided by a bank, the college, or the government, which must be paid back with interest.

Extractions: Arkansas Enhancement Program Overview USDA and the state of Arkansas have launched a $10 million Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) to improve water quality of the Bayou Meto watershed and wildlife habitat in five central Arkansas counties. CREP uses federal and state resources to safeguard environmentally sensitive land through the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). Producers enrolled in CRP remove lands from agricultural production and plant native grasses, trees, and other vegetation to improve water quality, soil, and wildlife habitat. CRP is authorized by the Food Security Act of 1985, as amended. CREP provides rental payments and other financial incentives to encourage producers to voluntarily enroll in 10- to 15-year CRP contracts. Benefits The Arkansas CREP will target 4,700 acres in central Arkansas to protect water quality, including drinking water supplies. The project will establish tree buffers around streams and rivers in the Bayou Meto watershed. These buffers keep sediment, nutrients, and pollutants from entering water supplies. Trees planted under the Arkansas CREP will reduce the amount of sediment reaching the water by 10,000 tons per year. The program will also provide vital habitat for a wide array of wildlife, including17 rare or declining species.
