Even though the Arkansas House passed HB 1703 (the National Popular Vote Plan), it didn’t pass the Senate, and the legislature has now recessed. Although the legislature will reconvene later this month for a few days, bills that didn’t already pass are dead for the year. The Senate committee that would have voted on HB 1703 requires 5 votes to pass bills, and HB 1703 only had support from 4 Senators on that committee.
