INVEST IN

Public Safety

A "FOR" vote for the sales tax is a direct $100 million investment in the safety and well-being of our families, neighborhoods, and city.


By enhancing public safety, we can provide our police and firefighters with the updated equipment, technology, and resources they need to respond quickly and effectively to emergencies. This means faster 911 response times, better communication systems, and a stronger, more prepared police force to protect us. With crime prevention and emergency response at the forefront, voting "FOR" creates a safer, more secure Little Rock for everyone.

​

Vote “FOR” Twice for Little Rock’s future—because a penny today funds progress for tomorrow.
