In this week’s episode of “Arkies in the Beltway,” Washington Correspondent Alex Thomas discusses the latest in national politics and the involvement of Arkansans in shaping the discussions. The Senate and House of Representatives have budget resolutions at the top of their agendas, with the Senate recently approving a $340 billion financial blueprint that includes increased defense and border security spending alongside reduced spending in other areas. Senators John Boozman and Tom Cotton, both from Arkansas, supported this resolution along with 50 other Senate Republicans.
Senator Tom Cotton, in addition to his legislative duties, has also released a new book titled “Seven Things You Can’t Say About China.” The book delves into China’s growing influence on the international stage and expresses Cotton’s concerns that China may surpass the United States as the leading political power in the world.
As the House returns to Capitol Hill and lawmakers continue their discussions on budget resolutions, Alex Thomas encourages listeners to stay updated on all Arkansas news through ArkansasOnline.com or follow him on BlueSky for the latest developments from the nation’s capital.
