The Road Ahead: Repealing and Replacing SB81 with HB1028
January 22, 2025
The Arkansas Right to Read Project is excited to announce our full support for HB1028, a proposed bill for the 2025 legislative session that aims to repeal and replace the unconstitutional SB81 with a thoughtful, forward-looking law designed to protect intellectual freedom in Arkansas. As we celebrate a critical victory in the fight against censorship with the recent court ruling striking down parts of Act 372, our focus now turns to legislative action to ensure that Arkansas libraries remain places of exploration, learning, and intellectual growth.
