Arkansas' U.S. Sen. Tom Cotton is spending part of his April Senate recess traveling around Arkansas. He recently visited the offices of the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette in downtown Fayetteville and joined Greg Harton, editorial page editor, and Rusty Turner, editor, for an episode of "Speaking of Arkansas." Our discussion touched on immigration, the report from the special counsel on Russian meddling in U.S. elections, the senator's efforts to eliminate illicit drugs from China and unwashed poppy seeds, and health care.
