What We Believe

What We Believe

Arkansas is home. We love the people, the places, and the promise of “The Land of Opportunity.” We believe Arkansas is worth it, and we as Democrats are working for a better Arkansas in every community across our state.


“A better Arkansas” is more than a dream. It’s a plan, a call to action, and a collective commitment to doing the hard work to create a healthier, safer, fairer, and brighter Arkansas for all of us. Democrats are working for a healthier Arkansas with improved health care and expanded access, better health outcomes, and a healthier environment. We are working for a safer Arkansas with better roads and bridges, clean air and water, less crime in our communities, and safe places to live and work. We are working for a fairer Arkansas with rights protected for everyone and systems that work for all of us. And we’reworking for a brighter Arkansas with a world-class education for every child, a growing economy, and economic opportunity for all.


We hope that you’ll join us in this work. There’s a place for you, no matter your story.

We respect the diverse opinions, backgrounds, faiths, and experiences in our party and recognize that all good policy is a product of debate and compromise.

A brighter future is built on the foundation of stability and security. Democrats believe in protecting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, expanding food and housing security programs, eliminating work requirements and other punitive mandates, and ensuring and enhancing benefits for disabled Arkansans and our veterans.

Democrats believe that a brighter Arkansas future is worth investing in now. Every Arkansan deserves the hope and promise of a better Arkansas, now and for years to come. Read our full platform here.
