Arkansas continues investing in expanding high-speed internet access to unserved and underserved communities. Reliable broadband can connect residents to telehealth, education, employment opportunities, government services and small-business resources. For rural Arkansas and communities that have historically lacked adequate infrastructure, closing the digital divide can open doors to economic opportunity.

As communities grow, ensuring residents have access to reliable internet should be part of the conversation about infrastructure, education and economic development.

Arkansas has expanded scholarship opportunities to additional technical and vocational institutions, opening more financial support for students pursuing careers in construction, manufacturing, healthcare, IT and logistics. That matters for communities looking for practical pathways to higher-paying careers.

For Black Arkansans, expanding access to skilled-trade education can help create new routes to economic mobility, entrepreneurship and homeownership.

Across America, changes to voting laws continue to shape how people register, cast ballots and participate in elections. For communities that have historically faced barriers to political participation, access matters. Local elections matter. Mayors matter. City council’s matter. School boards matter. The decisions made closest to home can have the biggest impact on everyday life.

Civic participation isn't just about Election Day. It's about having a voice in the future of your community.

Today, ABMA joins communities across Arkansas and the nation in remembering September 11, 2001. We honor the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the first responders and everyday heroes who demonstrated extraordinary courage and sacrifice.

More than two decades later, the impact of that day remains with us. May we continue to remember, honor, and reflect on the strength and unity that emerged during one of our nation’s darkest moments.

A new National Urban League report warns that Black Americans are experiencing significant setbacks in economic opportunity, homeownership, employment and voting rights. But the issues raised in the report reach beyond one community.

When access to opportunity becomes harder for working families, low-income families and aspiring middle-class Americans, the effects can spread throughout the economy. Protecting opportunity isn't only a racial issue. It's an American issue.

President Trump is threatening 50% tariffs on Canadian-made cars, auto parts and steel beginning January 1, 2027. The proposal could affect American manufacturers and consumers by increasing costs and disrupting North America's highly connected supply chains.

For Arkansas, the impact could reach beyond the auto industry, from manufacturing and construction to businesses and families already dealing with higher costs. Trade policy may start in Washington, but its economic consequences can reach communities across our state.
