Representative Wade Andrews

Education Committee (House) — April 1, 2025 (1:03:28)

saying, I'm going to actually take certain reasons, but, like, I'm going to put down what looks like all good answers, you know, pretend to be good when they're not.

Education Committee (House) — April 1, 2025 (1:03:23)

out. We do have that as well. I'm just thinking, like, you know, if the student is, like, actively

Education Committee (House) — April 1, 2025 (1:02:41)

Like, are there kids out there, say, you know, they are involved in bad behavior, that just write down the answers of, oh, I'm a good child today, so I write down the good stuff. or you have one student might say, I don't know what marijuana is, but I'm going to say I use it all the time. Is there data to show inaccuracies or

Education Committee (House) — April 1, 2025 (1:02:28)

Andrews, you're recognized for a question. Thank you, Mr. Chair. And I think Representative Brown asked one of my questions, that this is anonymous, right? No kids put their name on the piece. Okay. Second question is, what's the accuracy of this?

Education Committee (House) — April 3, 2025 (1:17:45)

but I'm just kind of thinking you can look at numbers all day. You can talk to people who actually, you know, say you've got two parents that make $50,000, $60,000 a year apiece and, you know, it comes out to $1.20. They're still struggling. By the time insurance is on the rise, homes cost depends on where you live in the state. Some places it's cheaper to live. Some places it's more expensive to live. It's just cost of living is high right now. And so I just don't see why we need to penalize the middle class.

Education Committee (House) — April 3, 2025 (1:15:36)

even though they might be making $100,000, they're still struggling day-to-day. And so to me, they're the ones who need this. This would be very important

Education Committee (House) — April 3, 2025 (1:15:46)

to them on educating their kids. So why are you targeting the middle class here? Go ahead. Yes,

Education Committee (House) — April 3, 2025 (1:15:10)

for a question. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Noreen, how did you come up with this range of $78,000 to $125,000? Because, I mean, I think if you're going to, you know, put income limits, I would think, you know, maybe north of $300,000, $400,000. Because just in my humble opinion, the $78,000 to $125,000 households, they're the ones that pay a good part of our state income tax. And the ones with, you know, four-people household,

And also appeals Arkansas Code 16-119-107, which dealt with restoration of marriage records and incorporates relevant provisions related to marriage record reinstatement to the amendments of other sections. Any questions? If not, hope for a good vote.
