LITTLE ROCK - Arkansas Democrats respond to comments from Attorney General Tim Griffin’s Office saying they’ve found no illegality in their initial review of the “Return to the Land” settlement in Sharp County.
Chair of the Arkansas Legislative said:
“The discriminatory private housing development in Sharp County represents a troubling moment for our state. While Attorney General Tim Griffin has issued preliminary statements about ongoing investigations, the fundamental issue remains clear: this private ‘members only’ association that excludes people based on race, religion, and sexual orientation runs counter to Arkansas values and potentially violates civil rights protections.
