AR SB715

Amends Arkansas Code § 1-4-101(b) to redesignate the meaning of stars on the state flag, adding Native American nations to the three stars below "ARKANSAS" alongside France and Spain as powers that exercised dominion over the state.

Changes the blue star above "ARKANSAS" from commemorating the Confederate States of America to representing the United States of America.

Includes legislative findings acknowledging Arkansas's Native American history, including tribes such as the Quapaw, Osage, Caddo, and Tunica, and the Trail of Tears migration in the 1830s.

Documents that the 1923 proposal to add a Confederate star was made by Representative Neill Bohlinger, identified as a known Ku Klux Klan member, and was approved by the General Assembly in 1924.

Retains existing flag symbolism regarding the 25 white stars representing Arkansas as the 25th state admitted to the Union and the diamond symbol representing Arkansas as the only diamond-bearing state.
