WHAT BRANDON IS FOR
CLICK ON AN ISSUE BELOW TO SEE HOW BRANDON WILL FIGHT FOR ARKANSAS
As a small business owner, Brandon Achor knows strong economies empower Arkansas families. As State Representative, he voted to slash the state income tax by over 20%, down to 3.9%, eliminate the state grocery tax and increased the Homestead Tax Credit by $225, putting Over One Billion Dollars back in taxpayers’ pockets. In the State Senate, Achor will continue fighting for lower taxes, reduced regulations, and pro-business policies to create jobs and drive economic growth.
As a steadfast conservative Republican, Brandon Achor champions policies that reduce welfare dependency and promote confident and competent self-reliance. He supported laws requiring able-bodied adults in public housing to work or volunteer, responsibly reducing cash welfare time limits for work-eligible households to 12 months—among the lowest nationally—and requiring job-ready welfare applicants to seek work during the application process. These reforms encourage workforce participation and protect taxpayer dollars. In the State Senate, Achor will advance conservative policies that empower Arkansans through opportunity.
Having been robbed at knifepoint in his pharmacy with his wife and employees present, Brandon Achor has seen and felt the threat of violent crime and is deeply committed to public safety. As a conservative Republican, he supported transformative legislation reforming Arkansas’s criminal justice system by strengthening parole processes, increasing minimum sentencing times, enhancing victim notification, and improving corrections training. In the State Senate, Achor will fight for tough-on-crime policies that hold violent offenders accountable and prioritize victims’ rights. His personal resolve ensures safer Arkansas communities..
As a staunch conservative Republican, Brandon Achor is dedicated to empowering Arkansas families through educational freedom and excellence. He proudly supported the LEARNS Act of 2023, a historic reform that expands school choice through Education Freedom Accounts, boosts teacher salaries, and enhances school safety measures. In the State Senate, Achor will continue championing policies that prioritize parental rights, improve academic outcomes, and ensure every child has access to a quality education. His conservative leadership drives bold reforms to strengthen Arkansas’s schools for future generations.
Brandon Achor stands firm against illegal immigration, which strains Arkansas’s resources and undermines those lawfully serving our communities. As State Representative, he worked with Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders to protect our borders and uphold the rule of law. In the State Senate, he will push for strong cooperation with federal authorities to securely deport undocumented immigrants, prevent sanctuary cities, and prioritize Arkansas citizens’ safety and opportunities.
One of the most important traits I hope to bring forth as your state senator is my common-sense-conservative values. Rooted in my Christian upbringing and entrepreneurial work ethic, I believe these values reflect and honor my constituents. I believe we as Arkansans are better than the zero-sum “Culture War” approach to politics and should strive for results over rhetoric. If elected, I promise to continue to bring a nuanced and informed approach to decision-making that is grounded in conservatism, while always focusing on what is most important to Arkansans and my district.
