Arkansas congressman Steve Womack to seek reelection

The big picture: The former Rogers mayor represents Arkansas' 3rd Congressional District, which covers the northwest corner of the state, east to Alpena and south to Greenwood, covering most of Fort Chaffee.

• Womack serves as chair of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Transportation, Housing and Urban Development and formerly served as chair of the House Budget Committee and the Financial Services and General Government Subcommittee on Appropriations.
• He was first elected to congress in 2010 and is a retired Colonel in the Arkansas Army National Guard with 30 years of service.

What he's saying: "I'm running for reelection in Congress because I believe now, more than ever, our country needs strong, principled leadership."

• "With President Trump back in the White House, we have a monumental opportunity to get our fiscal house in order, enact a pro-growth agenda, and pass on a stronger, safer America to future generations."
