The resolution proclaims April 9, 2025, as Arkansas Lineworker Appreciation Day at the State Capitol, recognizing the vital contributions of utility lineworkers in the state. These dedicated individuals are responsible for building and maintaining essential infrastructure, including electric, telephone, cable television, and fiber optic lines. They often serve as first responders during storms and other emergencies, working tirelessly under hazardous conditions to ensure the safety and reliability of energy services for Arkansas residents.
The resolution emphasizes the importance of acknowledging the hard work and sacrifices made by lineworkers, who frequently operate in dangerous environments and away from their families. It calls for the House of Representatives to commend these men and women for their commitment to public safety and their role in keeping electricity flowing throughout the state.
