Fri, 07 Mar 2008 00:00:00 -0600 - Governor Beebe's weekly column and radio address: Salute to Arkansas's Soldiers | 3.7.2008
Yesterday, I travelled to Camp Shelby, Mississippi, to participate in the Farewell Ceremony for the 39th Infantry Brigade Combat Team. The 39th, nicknamed the Arkansas Brigade, is the largest combat command within our State and is comprised of members from the Arkansas National Guard. There is no greater honor, nor a more solemn duty, than saying farewell to our troops as they leave their home...
Fri, 07 Mar 2008 00:00:00 -0600 - Governor Beebe's weekly column and radio address: Restoring Faith in Government | 2.29.2008
Whenever I meet fellow Arkansans dedicating themselves to helping those in need, I am reminded of how unique and wonderful the people of our State really are. I recently attended an award ceremony honoring the accomplishments of the Arkansas Disability Determination Division of our Social Security Administration, and met some Arkansas public servants who have turned a tough, thankless job into...
Fri, 29 Feb 2008 00:00:00 -0600 - Governor Beebe's weekly column and radio address: Arkansas Aerospace | 2.22.2008
"Arkansas Aerospace." These two words, placed side-by-side, smash into bits 175 years of myth and stereotypes about our State. Arkansas is currently ranked 13th in the nation in aerospace exports. In 2006, the industry exported more than one-billion dollars worth of aircraft, parts, and related technology, making aerospace one of Arkansas's top exports. The development and growth of the aerospa...

February is designated by the President as National African-American History Month. It is a time for honoring and exploring the culture and history of black Americans and recognizing that our society's rich diversity is one of our greatest strengths. It is also an opportunity to unite around the fundamental values that all Americans share and to work to ensure that our laws, our actions, and our...
Fri, 15 Feb 2008 00:00:00 -0600 - Governor Beebe's weekly column and radio address: Communities Rally Together | 2.8.2008
On Tuesday night, Arkansas was dealt a blow of misery and destruction as more than a dozen counties were battered by tornadoes and violent storms that killed 14 of our neighbors, injured dozens more, and left hundreds homeless. As I visited those Arkansas communities hit hardest this week, I was reminded once again of the incredible spirit of my fellow Arkansans, whose courage, determination, and ...

Mon, 04 Feb 2008 00:00:00 -0600 - Governor Beebe's weekly column and radio address: DeltaMade Products | 2.1.2008
The Arkansas Delta is steeped in history and tradition. From its stark beauty, strong sense of community, and its rich soil to its culture that gave us "the blues" and barbeque, the Delta has much to offer. It has also been known for its high levels of poverty and hardship. In the ever-changing world of globalization and outsourcing, we must find new and innovative ways for local economies in the ...
Fri, 01 Feb 2008 00:00:00 -0600 - Governor Beebe's weekly column and radio address: Finding Help for Rising Energy Costs | 1.25.2008
Rising gasoline-and-energy prices are affecting everyone in our state. But some Arkansans, including the elderly, the disabled, and those on low or fixed incomes, are left especially vulnerable. This week I joined with community leaders and energy officials in speaking out for increased funding for Arkansans who need extra help paying their energy bills, especially during the cold winter months....

The Phillips County pre-school student is already saving for his future and talks excitedly about going to college some day, thanks to an innovative program that supercharges his family's own savings. Children like William are living proof that offering incentives for working fa...
Fri, 18 Jan 2008 00:00:00 -0600 - Governor Beebe's weekly column and radio address: Recognizing An Arkansas Hero | 1.11.2008
Being Governor provides me with opportunities every day to affect positive change for Arkansas, and this week I had the chance to share in an event that is truly one of the best parts of this job. On Friday, I joined representatives from Senator Blanche Lincoln's office and from Representative Mike Ross's office to present the long-overdue Bronze Star Medal to veteran Private First Class Ray Smit...
Fri, 11 Jan 2008 00:00:00 -0600 - Governor Beebe's weekly column and radio address: One Year In Office | 1.4.2008
One year ago, as I was sworn in as your 45th Governor, I undertook the great challenge of moving Arkansas forward. On the steps of our State's Capitol, I affirmed that Arkansans are a people of optimism and determination. Our optimism comes from knowing that we are a State proud of our traditions and our heritage. Our determination will not allow us to be dissuaded from fulfilling the potential th...

Next week, more than 3,200 Arkansans will begin their deployment to serve our country in Iraq. The State of Arkansas is proud of the men and women of the 39th Infantry Brigade Combat Team and their service to our Nation. They represent a tradition of Arkansans in uniform that is emblematic of the spirit of our State and her people's unwavering commitment to serving others. They carry with them the...

Each year, at this time of hope, sharing, and giving, we gather with loved ones. We take the time and make the extra effort to be kinder to one another and to count our blessings. We teach our children that if they work hard, play by the rules, and have faith, their dreams can come true. The Christmas spirit of caring and sharing joins parents and children, friends and neighbors, the needy ...
Thu, 20 Dec 2007 00:00:00 -0600 - Governor Beebe's weekly column and radio address: Governor Beebe announces Health Care Roundtable | 12.14.2007
We have made tremendous strides in Arkansas toward improving accessibility to affordable, top-quality health care, especially through the ARKids First program. Sadly, there are still more than half-a-million citizens - mostly working Arkansans between the ages of 19 and 64 - who lack basic health coverage. Recent reports highlight the fact that even those who have insurance bear a higher cost bu...
