In this episode of Free Arkansas, hosts Andy McNeill and Rep. Matt Duffield sit down with Rep. Aaron Pilkington to unpack the highs, lows, and headline-grabbing moments from Arkansas' recently wrapped-up legislative session. 🇺🇸

We dive into:

• 👶 Pilkington's Healthy Moms, Healthy Babies legislation and what it means for maternal care in Arkansas
• 🌿 The vetoed marijuana bill—what was in it, and its surprising demise
• 🎆 Duffield’s successful push to expand legal fireworks dates
• ⚖️ Stronger sentencing for rape convictions
• 🌊 Pilkington’s failed but fun “Gulf of America” resolution and the reaction it sparked
• 🏆 And we crown our Session MVPs—the legislators who got it done (or helped others get it done!)

This candid conversation blends insight, humor, and behind-the-scenes takes you won’t hear anywhere else. Whether you're deep in state politics or just curious about what really goes on in the Capitol, this one's for you.
