College Football Gets Arkansas To Change Its New Gun Law

Podcast

This edition of KUAR's Week In Review podcast tackles the winding down of the legislative session. Lawmakers retread the concealed carry debate and carve out an exception for athletic events, UAMS, and the state hospital despite NRA opposition. The online sales tax finally gets past a committee hurdle and the bathroom bill gets pushed aside for another time as does highway funding.

The KUAR News team also delves into a nationwide report detailing the health of every county in America. Some places are better than others to live in Arkansas but none shape up too well when looking across state lines.

The state continues to gear up to kill eight men in 10 days but legal challenges are emerging in the face of an unprecedented execution schedule. Also, the KUAR News team has a special guest courtesy of Arkansas Public Media.
