Cutting Red Tape

Whether it’s regulating dust on our farms or requiring farmers to purchase unnecessary and expensive equipment, it seems as though regulations are failing to take into account the most important factor—input from those who know the issues best. But we all know that when it comes to maintaining the safety of our farms, communities, or businesses, no one knows what to do better than Arkansans.

We can’t allow our state to get bogged down by these burdensome regulations. We must fix our broken federal regulatory process. That starts by passing my bipartisan legislation, the Regulatory Accountability Act. By increasing transparency and building a decision-making process based on results and costs, I’m confident we can give our farmers and businesses the certainty and flexibility they need to invest and expand.
