Arkansas’ Newton County Times reported state Attorney General Leslie Rutledge’s remarks on the lawsuit on March 11:
“As the wife of a row crop farmer, I know firsthand how the Obama-Biden Administration’s egregious federal overreach directly harmed agriculture. Now, we are faced with the same power grab by President Biden which will hurt agriculture and manufacturing jobs… I will not sit back and let this massive expansion of federal control take away jobs from hard-working Arkansans while the cost of energy, food and necessities dramatically increase.”
