With President Trump inflation is way down, but Tom Cotton is fighting for even lower prices.
Education (K-12)
Cotton supports school choice so parents can pick the best option for their children. He has pushed to keep politics out of the classroom and focus on reading, writing, math, history, and civics. He also supports higher teacher pay and policies that reward good teachers so Arkansas can attract and keep the best educators.

The government holds the investigative files on Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking of children: who paid, who flew, who knew, and which prosecutors decided back in 2008 that a plea deal was enough. Every release so far has landed late, partial, and with the redactions falling in suspiciously convenient places. The survivors have spent two decades being told to wait while the people they named kept their board seats and their reputations. There is exactly one legitimate reason to withhold any of this, and that is protecting victims who never chose to be in it; every other black box is someone being shielded who shouldn't be. Force the full release of the Epstein files with victim-identifying information redacted and nothing else, and open an independent review of how the 2008 deal was allowed to happen.
The National Archives holds the founding documents and the receipts, the records that let a citizen check what the government actually did. The Smithsonian and the national museums hold the version of the American story that outlasts whoever is in office. None of that survives being run by whoever currently holds power. We are watching boards replaced with loyalists, exhibits rewritten to flatter one man, collections put at risk, and a Pearl Harbor hero's name scraped off a ship to make room for an ego. A country that lets its record be edited by the people the record is about has no way to hold anyone accountable later. Write independence for the National Archives, the Smithsonian, and the national cultural institutions into statute, with fixed board terms, protection from political removal, and no rewriting or renaming without public process.
Artificial intelligence is being built faster than anyone can show it’s safe, and no law requires the companies building it to stop. Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Greg Casar’s Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act would permanently ban building superintelligent AI, pause the most advanced AI development until a federal regulator sets safety rules, and direct the U.S. to pursue international agreements so it isn’t built anywhere else. That is the kind of serious public oversight a technology this powerful demands. Co-sponsor and vote for the Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act.
