The 93rd General Assembly Begins Today!

The Arkansas General Assembly website is where you can view the proceedings of the session and committee meetings.

Today at 12 p.m., the House and Senate of the 93rd General Assembly will convene at the state Capitol.  You can view today’s proceedings and future committee meetings by visiting www.arkleg.state.us.  From that page, scroll down and click on the view video icon that will open up the live feed video.

There are many new rules regarding the public participation in the legislative process this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but we are committed to representing all Arkansas physicians and their patients on issues that are important to you.  Because of these limitations, it’s so important that you become involved in the advocacy process.

We will be sending regular legislative updates and calls for action as the session progresses, so make sure that your email address is up to date and your membership is active so that you don’t miss out on any information.

You can check that by logging into your online account at ARKMED.org/membership/profile/.  If you do not have an online account or have issues, email lhaywood@arkmed.org for help.  If you need to join or renew, visit ARKMED.org/membership/join-renew.
