Before heading to a brief recess for the rest of the week, the Arkansas House tried to override the governor’s veto of Senate Bill 301. The bill would return fines to businesses that violated COVID-19 public health guidelines. The Senate voted in favor of a veto Monday, but the House did not garner enough votes Tuesday.
