The host of Capitol View, Roby Brock, discussed the most recent legislative activity in Arkansas as well as some further cabinet nominees for Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
Attorney General Tim Griffin joined Brock to talk about the work being done in Arkansas on criminal justice reform and anticipated impending legislation. Griffin talked about his worries about funding in some areas of the system, punishment, and time served by individuals convicted in the state.
Brock next had a meeting with Representatives Jamie Scott and Aaron Pilkington of the Millennial Action Project’s Arkansas Future Caucus.
