Bill filing began on November 15, 2016. Also, legislators previously met at a pre-legislative conference on December 3, 2016, at First Presbyterian Church in Little Rock where they planned to discuss Ten Priorities for a Better Arkansas. Now they are about to meet officially as a legislative body.
Start learning what has already been filed (see links in next paragraph). Once the Session occurs, be sure to learn what they covered. In general, contact them over issues you wish to be addressed.
