We’ve all heard the saying, “April showers bring May flowers,” but those spring showers can sometimes turn into severe weather that brings devastating impacts to our communities, homes, and infrastructure. This spring, just about every corner of the Natural State was impacted by tornadoes and severe storms.

The thunderous roar of the crowd in the stadium, the anticipation of kickoff, and the excitement in the air can only be because of one thing: college football.

Since the beginning of time, humanity has sought out knowledge and wisdom. The ability to gain a greater understanding of the world around them ensured our ancestors' success, safety, and survival. Over time, as humanity has continued to learn, society has developed, and tools and resources for building and farming have become more sophisticated. Advances in healthcare, agriculture, and the economy have also been made possible.

Representing the Fourth District of Arkansas in Congress is the honor of a lifetime, and the ability to bring the voices of friends, family, and neighbors to Washington is certainly a privilege that will never be taken for granted. While the work in Washington certainly never ends, so do cumbersome federal issues that constituents face. This is why there are several representatives across the Fourth District from my office who are ready and eager to help with any problems our constituents may be facing.
