Arkansas Democrat defends Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders amid attack from California's Gavin Newsom
Fox News
After California Gov. Gavin Newsom criticized Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders' handling of her state, a Democratic lawmaker in the state rushed to her defense.
"While @SarahHuckabee touts public safety, here is what she skips over: Arkansas has one of the highest murder rates in the nation," the California governor tweeted.
In a swift response, Arkansas state representative Andrew Collins countered: "1. She’s been Governor a month. 2. There are drivers of crime like poverty, lack of education, and lack of opportunity, that Arkansas needs to fix in order to reduce violent crime. They’re generational. And they aren’t unique to Arkansas. 3. Don’t trash my state."
