Hispanic Heritage Month (Sept 15–Oct 15) is a time to honor the rich histories, cultures, and contributions of Hispanic Americans. Let’s take time to learn more about the shared histories and contributions of Hispanic communities while looking to the future to inspire progress and innovation.

68 years ago, 9 Black students in LR showed extraordinary courage as they walked into Central High School. Their bravery not only changed Arkansas, it changed America. As a Black man from Arkansas, I carry their legacy with me every day. We honor the LR9 as the fight for equality is not over.

Happy National Daughters Day! As a proud dad of 3 amazing girls, today is a reminder of our responsibility to raise strong, confident women who are seen & valued as equals. Let's work for a future where every girl knows her voice matters & equality is a reality. #nationaldaughtersday

🍎🍯 Wishing a sweet and joyful New Year to all who celebrate Rosh Hashanah. May this season of reflection and renewal bring peace, health, and happiness to you and your loved ones. Shana Tovah! ✨

As a rocket scientist, I geek out over orbital mechanics + Earth’s 23.5° tilt. 🌍 But the best part is that today marks the first day of fall. Crisp mornings, Friday Night Lights and science at work. 🍂 Get involved: chris4ar.org/volunteer | chris4ar.org/invest

Today marked the 78th anniversary of the establishment of the U.S. Air Force. The Air Force was officially created as part of the National Security Act of 1947. My wife served in the Air Force for 4 years as a flight surgeon. I am thankful for her service & thousands who have served over the years.

As a dad of 3 girls, I’m teaching them that words carry power — they can build or they can break. That’s why the First Amendment matters so deeply. Free speech protects every voice, even when it’s uncomfortable, and reminds us that with freedom comes responsibility. 🔗https://chris4ar.org/firstamend

📣 We’re launching Oct 9 — and we want you there! Mark your calendars & stay tuned for details. In the meantime: sign up to volunteer 👉 chris4ar.org/save-the-dat... or donate 👉 chris4ar.org/save-the-dat... #SaveTheDate #NextArkansas

We are living in a time of great and increasing fracture. In my recent Substack, I noted how our country is being torn apart by the words and actions of those with enormous power. We must resist the urge to allow fear or falsehoods to fracture us. chris4ar.org/time-of-frac...

The Constitution gave us a framework in 1787. Citizenship Day began in 1940. Together, they remind us that rights matter most when we live them out in community. We’re also reminded that Micah 6:8 calls us to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly. That’s what citizenship is all about.

They are calling it Farmageddon. www.cnn.com/2025/09/16/u...

@jonesforar.bsky.social is running for Congress this time against French Hill🐝

"America is showing fracture lines. Not because we’re weak, but because the pressure has gone unaddressed for too long...Left untreated, tiny cracks become catastrophic breaks...early intervention can prevent collapse. The longer we wait to face the truth, the harder the repair."

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

The campaign has launched, the event is postponed. You all remain wise, stay safe, and be blessed!

I remain in prayer for Charlie Kirk, may he be surrounded by healing in this terrifying time. My heart goes out to his wife and children, may they find comfort and courage in the moments ahead. I also hold the Utah community in my thoughts, may peace carry you through the weight of this trauma.

As a dad, I cannot see events like what happened today in Minneapolis and believe this is the best we can do. My heart aches for the families, and of course, they have my thoughts and prayers. But faith without works is dead. We owe it to each other to do whatever it takes to be better.

It appears to have been a hoax.

Praying for everyone in and around @UArkansas right now. 🙏🏽 katv.com/news/local/a...

It’s time for those of us who support our democracy to get tough.

Rest well, Lu Hardin! 🙏🏽 This part was so touching. "He made it very clear his goal was to make it to July 19th to celebrate his 50th wedding anniversary. He did that, and we had a big celebration. He loved my mom so much, and we loved him so much." katv.com/news/local/a...

Can someone explain how this is not a complete travesty against humanity? In what world can anyone justify firing on people seeking food and humanitarian aid? wpde.com/news/nation-...

In his own statement, President Trump admits to hiring a 16-year-old girl to work at his spa at Mar-a-Lago. Even if he wasn’t involved in trafficking, why would he hire a 16-yo to work in that capacity. Does Rep. Hill think this is acceptable behavior? If not, what’s French going to do about it?

The real leaders we need deal in truth, not distraction. If someone starts with the distractions, we need to keep asking questions.

He got out ahead of the story.

This isn’t just a rant—it’s also the cries of someone crumbling under the weight of guilt. Normally, this would trigger a wellness check or family intervention. The truth is, Congress should be the intervention. But the GOP-led House is too feckless and too complicit to act. It's time for a change.

Burying your head in the sand and hoping that things work out is a horrible strategy.

What kind of country do we live in? Two national guardsmen put on their Army uniforms to escort their mother to her immigration hearing to protect her from being kidnapped…

The pause before the battle!

Congressman French Hill represents Arkansas’ 2nd district (for now) and he leads the banking committee. He should tell us if he’s good with this.

Ossoff: "If we allow Affordable Care Act benefits to expire, as this bill would, more than a million Georgians will pay more for health insurance next year. A family of 4 in Clayton County making $65k a year - that's a $2,600 increase...the AJC reports 300k Georgians would lose insurance altogether"

#arpx, @jonesforar.bsky.social has given us a script for calling our congress creatures. Ask these questions. Tell them they are abdicating their responsibility. Tell them their fecklessness is putting American lives at risk. Tell them to meet the moment. Call them today!

NEW! Candid Conversation! @mrbimpact.bsky.social talks with @democrats.org @janekleeb.bsky.social @westmoreland-pops.bsky.social @jonesforar.bsky.social and Russ Carnahan for a wide-ranging roundtable discussion on Trump Administration policies and their impacts on rural. tinyurl.com/2zf5byh8
