In his first interview with Conduit News, AR State Senator Steve Crowell (R – Magnolia) offered an in-depth reflection on the 2025 legislative session, describing it as unusually stressful and disjointed.
He discussed major legislative developments including the energy and lithium bills, the prison funding debate, and local control issues such as the four-day school week.
Crowell also expressed concern about lobbying influence, tax policy, and excessive bill filing. Despite controversial votes and pushback, he emphasized his commitment to fiscal responsibility and local input.
Crowell, who isn’t up for re-election this cycle, plans to focus on supporting strong Conservative candidates in South Arkansas.
