Reynolds urges Lincoln to start listening to Arkansans and offers congratulations for chairmanship

CONWAY – Republican United States Senate candidate Col. Conrad Reynolds (US Army, Ret.) today issued the following statement on the appointment of Sen. Blanche Lincoln to Chairman of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry.

“I wish to congratulate Sen. Lincoln on her ascendancy to the chairmanship of the committee, whose jurisdiction is important to the lives of rural Arkansans and farmers, as well as to our state’s economy. I encourage Sen. Lincoln to start listening to the voice of Arkansans as she assumes her new role and not serve as an enabler of the liberal policies of President Obama which will burden our farm families with higher energy and healthcare costs, increased government regulation, restricted trade and higher taxes.”
