LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) – Divisions within the Republican Party over tax cuts

program are expected to dominate the agenda when Arkansas lawmakers convene at
the Capitol this week for the 2017 session. When the 91st General Assembly
convenes at noon on Monday, Republicans will hold their largest majority in the
Legislature since Reconstruction after gaining seats in the November election
and the defection of three Democratic lawmakers.
