 In part 2 of our conversation with Andrew Collins, Democratic state representative and minority leader in the Arkansas House, April and Glen learn about changes Andrew has seen over the course of his 4 terms as a legislator. He also describes his hopes that some “overreaching” by members of the majority party will eventually be understood by Arkansans and they will be corrected by voters. Responding to a quote from his social media, Andrew explains his belief in the importance of speaking up when things are moving in the wrong direction in the state and nation. He also speaks with pride about a bipartisan action taken in a previous session to stand up for legal and moral standards by legislators. Andrew further tells of how he seeks out members with views different from his own in order to form relationships and improve his ability to work effectively in his role, with an eye toward what is best for Arkansans overall.
