AR HB1574

Paid canvassers for statewide initiative or referendum petitions must be both Arkansas residents and domiciled in the state, meaning they have actual residence plus intent to remain permanently

Sponsors or agents who knowingly hire non-resident or non-domiciled paid canvassers face a $2,500 fine per canvasser hired in violation

Officials verifying petition signatures must report suspected forgeries to the Division of Arkansas State Police for statewide petitions or to the county prosecuting attorney for local petitions
