And Lord, as we begin a new week doing the work of the people of the state of Arkansas, Lord, I pray that you'll give strength and focus and wisdom to the representatives as they serve today.

Representative Broadway, you're recognized to explain the bill.
▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Mary Broadaway Unverified 7:52
Thank you so much, Mr. Speaker and fellow members. This bill gives the Deputy Director of Education the same powers as an ABC agent in limited circumstances. Those circumstances are only when the Director of Enforcement authorizes him to act as an agent. Circumstances like this must include filling in as an extra agent when circumstances dictate. And circumstances like that would be large events like a Riverfest, Vikes, Blues, and Barbecue, or a large musical festival. Or the circumstances have come up, like now in Benton County, a regular agent has had heart issues and is on medical leave. And there have been over 100 applications that have been received since November in that geographic area. And so the director is in need of another enforcement agent. This Deputy Director of Education is already, by virtue of the definition of his job, is a certified law enforcement officer. And what he does is he trains employees at restaurants and bars as well as local law enforcement officers on specific laws as they relate to the ABC. The law enforcement side includes extensive training, field training, and high traffic times for bars. This is a good bill because it's physically responsible due to shared duties and it expands law enforcement capabilities through real-world training. I would appreciate very much a good vote. Thank you.

▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Nate Steel Unverified 10:26
is a clean-up bill that basically is aimed at a particular problem that's already occurring in most district courts, already being solved in most district courts. This simply says that when an individual, a defendant, who's found guilty in a district court is serving out his old fines in jail, it does not serve serve out restitution payments owed to victims. I think that's already the practice in most courts. Judges understand that, but this clarifies that any time a defendant spends in jail, he's not working off restitution payments. He will still owe any restitution to that particular victim of the crime. I'll be happy to take any questions. Appreciate a good vote. Representative Steele

I think most sheriffs have understood this to be the case. Most correctional facilities have understood this to be the case. This is just another clarification. I'd be happy to take any

▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Marshall Wright Unverified 13:05
Representative Wright, you're recognized to explain the bill. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Colleagues, what this bill does is it provides that right now in Arkansas law, when you are on parole and you violate your parole, you're entitled to have a hearing to determine whether or not you have violated your parole. Basically, if you're on parole and you don't comply with the terms of your parole, you don't pass a drug test, you have that right to have a hearing before you go back to the Arkansas Department of Corrections. All this bill does is says that somebody can waive that right, which basically says if somebody says, look, I did it, I violated, I just want to go back as quickly as I can to serve out my time, this allows them to do it. It's already the practice of the Board of Parole. We just want to make sure that it's clear. Appreciate any questions. Representative Wright

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Senate Bill 125, sponsored by Senator Pierce in the Senate. This was passed last year, about two years ago, excuse me, dealing with only school buses. It expands it to school buses, school districts, county, city governments, state governments, and businesses. It's to convert gas and diesel-powered vehicles into CNG or propane.

Representative Lauer, you're recognized to explain the bill.
▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Mark Lowery Unverified 19:59
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. This is the bill that I came before you the other day and amended to include the House Education Committee in this study. I spoke with Senator Chesterfield. If you've looked at the bill, you see there's not a great bit of detail in terms of what the study would be. But to explain, we want to make sure, I don't know that this is specifically her intent, but it certainly is mine in engaging the House, is that we not overreach in responding to these horrendous events such as Sandy Hook. We have a public trust to make sure that the public parents and other supporters of the public schools don't feel like that they are intruders when they want to come to their local school. And there is a great potential for our schools to go into such a lockdown mode that they are not inviting. And they still need to continue to be inviting. So this would be a study that would look at resources. It would possibly look at best practices that are out in the state and make sure that school districts are not operating completely in separate silos as far as this issue is concerned and that they can share some of these best

▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Debra M. Hobbs Unverified 21:25
have a question if Representative Lowry is willing to come back to the well. You're recognized for a question. Mr. Speaker, I served on the Education Committee. At first glance, this bill did not concern me whatsoever. But after giving further thought, because this is a question to you. Do you have a concern that if there is a public discussion about schools' safety plans, that if the public knows about it, perpetrators will also be aware of what those practices are? Well, I don't have a concern because,
▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Speaker 57 22:00
for one thing, if you look at the bill, none of this would be codified,
▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Mark Lowery Unverified 22:06
though it does require a study. If you're talking about substantive changes at any school district, it's going to have to go before a school board anyway, which would be a public meeting. So there's nothing that
▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Debra M. Hobbs Unverified 22:20
changes the public access to that information. However, in reading the bottom of the first page, it does require a report concerning the best practices for public schools. and again

Speaker 57 22:39
i best practices does not necessarily indicate specific references to locking down the

▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Mark Lowery Unverified 23:01
plan in place they hopefully they do but in light of what has been happening and in light of the potential overreaching we would hope that the school districts are identifying are actually reviewing those and maybe developing new plans this is an attempt to make sure that all the school districts are not reinventing the wheel that some school districts are going to be more proactive about it they're going to come up with some great plans that other school districts might be able to implement, but I don't see it as something where every jot and tittle of their readiness plan is going to be out there on the anarchist website or whatever website that these

Speaker 66 23:42
crazies go to. Do you think the plans
▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Mark Lowery Unverified 23:47
will be FOI-able? I would imagine they probably would, but again, what we're talking about is something that already would happen. If that is a plan that they have at the school district level, it would be FOI-able at that level. It doesn't change anything that we're going to help in the process of making sure that best practice plans are identified and then shared with
▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Debra M. Hobbs Unverified 24:09
other school districts. Okay. I heard you say it doesn't change anything. So if it doesn't change anything,
▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Mark Lowery Unverified 24:15
what is the purpose? Representative Hobbs, it doesn't change anything in terms of the FOI capability of those plans. They can already be FOI just at the local school district level.
