During the 2013 session of the Arkansas Legislature, state lawmakers are considering more than 15-hundred bills and they still have time to file a few more.
Roby Brock with Talk Business tells Good Day's Deedra Wilson about some of the ones not getting a lot of attention that are a little unusual.
They include:
- The Tennis License Plate Bill (SB 784) - Arkansas Tennis Association license plates. $35; $25 goes to the association, $10 to the state
- The Monkey Bill (HB 1391) - This was tried in a previous session. It outlines who can and can't possess a primate, a member of the monkey species. Zoos, the circus, and wildlife sanctuaries are ok, as are folks who already have a monkey for a pet. But health concerns - such as rabies - is a reason this bill is being discussed.
