Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders races to sign a flurry of bills

• Yes, but: The high volume and quick clip of laws enacted means citizens may have missed important changes.

Catch up quick: Most of the laws deal with technicalities and appropriations of funds for departments to operate, but some could have a broad and immediate impact on Arkansans' day-to-day lives, such as:

• Adult-oriented performances intended to appeal to prurient interests, featuring nudity or semi-nudity, are restricted from public property or anywhere a minor might see. This bill first targeted drag performances but was amended to remove that language.
• Absentee voting is permitted for those who are prevented from doing so due to a religious observance during polling hours on Election Day.
• Public schools and open-enrollment public charter schools are required to excuse absences due to pregnancy or parenting, including labor and delivery, as well as prenatal and postnatal medical care.
• A special court program was created for families experiencing neglect issues due substance use or mental health disorders so that parents receive appropriate treatment in an effort to reduce separation from their children.
• People who have voluntarily sought mental health care may now obtain a concealed carry permit for a handgun two years after the treatment has ended.

• Training courses for county coroners have been expanded and now can be completed online.
• Law enforcement officers are permitted to take a person in crisis to a hospital or treatment facility where they can detoxify from alcohol or other substances.

What we're watching: The "LEARNS" education bill will continue to move through the Legislature this week. It's scheduled to be reviewed by the House Education Committee Tuesday at 9am.
