“’Arkansas LEARNS is a comprehensive plan to tackle all these problems by meeting teachers’ needs, respecting parents’ rights, and, most importantly, delivering the quality education our kids deserve.’ Raise the starting teacher salary from $36,000 to $50,000, giving every teacher a raise and respecting parents’ right to protect their kids from inappropriate topics are just a few of the items included in this much needed educational reform.” – 2nd Vote, February 22, 2023
