Read our initial statement in response to the Governor's op-ed. There are a lot of ways to look at this, but there is NO way to ignore how wrong the site selection is. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

We need our supporters to step up! We have a call to action that!

It is time for the legislators to "nip it in the bud" and stop this prison disaster before it begins!

Grrrr...due to the 1 min. video length limit of Bluesky, we will have to post a link to it instead... drive.google.com/file/d/1Tfje...

Don't let our legislators dismiss the human toll this will have on hundreds of residents near Mill Creek Mountain.

Have they done ANY homework on this site? They have owned it for eight months now! UN-REAL... youtu.be/tfaSZ2KeOBU?...

Great article from the Arkansas Democrat Gazette...

The new ask is a smooth $1 BILLION. Somethin' ain't right here! @gregleding.bsky.social @sirscrewston.bsky.social

We firmly believe this new $1 Billion ask is still a low number. 3000 beds will cost more than that. Learn more at www.gravelandgrit.org

We don't think they got their message out they way they hoped they would.

Arkansas! ✅ Wow, yesterday was a testament to the countless hours of work our volunteers have poured into this effort! Our legislators are hearing our message, even if only a few. ‼️ NOW is the time to step up the effort! We are including the link to the Joint Budget Committee! Email them today!

This demonstrates how well Senator King's SB 143 and SB 144 can work for Arkansas. Saving BILLIONS of taxpayer dollars while doing the right thing by the counties of Arkansas. #PrisonGate #franklincountystrong

CALL RIGHT NOW and leave a pink slip for your senator or representative, or all of them. Just be sure to tell them to vote NO on the senate bills trying to silence us. #arpx #arleg #arkdems #argop

🚩🚩🚩Folks, that number is $69 MILLION DOLLARS MORE EACH YEAR for the 3000 inmates housed in the new mega prison planned for Franklin County. That is IN ADDITION to the over $350 MILLION we already spend to incarcerate Arkansans. Arkansas taxpayers CANNOT AFFORD THIS PLAN. #arpx #argop #arleg #adcpio

The truth should be easy...yet here we are.

🚨 VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! 🚨 The Board of Corrections is hearing public input tomorrow, and Senator Bryan King speaks at 2 PM in Little Rock. 📢 Take action today! Email/call B.O.C. members, Dept. of Corrections, legislators, and the Governor—demand a common-sense approach! Join us in LR if you can!
