HB14-74 would require an 8-by-11-inch sign explaining the hotline to be prominently placed at bus and train stations, airports, strip clubs, and privately owned truck stops within a quarter mile of the interstate. The bill passed unanimously through the Arkansas House Judiciary Committee and now heads to the full House for a vote.
