There is a disconnect between Arkansas and Washington, D.C. The career politicians in Washington are not listening to people here in Arkansas, and this is the fundamental problem with politics.

Arkansas families need to feel safe in their homes and communities, which is why we need a U.S. Senator who will address threats - both at home and abroad - head on.
