Tired of the lockdowns, tired of the crime, tired of the preening politicians who won\u2019t do anything to address the real issues they\u2019re facing.<\/p>\n<p>As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/sarah-huckabee-sanders-makes-history-arkansas-first-female-governor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">governor of Arkansas<\/a>, I\u2019ve had my chance to ask that question a lot of times. That\u2019s because our state has received a steady influx of new residents for years. Today, there are thousands of California refugees \u2013 and thousands more from other states \u2013 in our state.<\/p>\n<p>This year alone, about 32,000 new people moved to Arkansas, about 10% of them from California. Arkansas is now one of the top five states for inbound migration. And the flow isn\u2019t slowing down anytime soon.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/sarah-sanders-wades-crucial-kentucky-governor-race-republicans-flip-second-seat-democrats\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>SARAH SANDERS WADES INTO \u2018CRUCIAL\u2019 KENTUCKY GOVERNOR RACE AS REPUBLICANS LOOK TO FLIP SECOND SEAT FROM DEMS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s because my administration is focused on the reforms that will make Arkansas the best state in the country to live, work and raise a family.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Just in my first few months in office, we passed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/gov-sarah-sanders-protects-arkansas-children-radical-left-agenda\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">boldest education reforms<\/a> in the country, including universal school choice, cut taxes not once, but twice, and are making historic investments in outdoor recreation. We\u2019re cracking down on crime, getting woke nonsense out of our schools, and keeping kids safe online.<\/p>\n<p>I think these changes will be the icing on the cake for those who are already looking at how good we have it in Arkansas. Take our cost of living, for example. It\u2019s nearly 40% cheaper to live in Little Rock than in Los Angeles. Housing is about 60% less expensive; health care is 15% cheaper.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine a family struggling to eke it out in California. For $500,000 \u2013 no small sum \u2013 they could afford a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/california-gov-newsom-signs-law-fast-tracking-affordable-housing-surplus-land-owned-churches-colleges\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tiny fixer-upper in East LA<\/a>. With that money in Little Rock, you could get a modern, 4,000-square-foot, custom-built home in one of our best neighborhoods.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/sarah-huckabee-sanders-executive-order-eliminating-woke-anti-women-state-government\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>SARAH HUCKABEE SANDERS TO SIGN EXECUTIVE ORDER ELIMINATING \u2018WOKE, ANTI-WOMEN WORDS\u2019 FROM STATE GOVERNMENT USE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Taxes are another way we beat our coastal competition. Already this year, we cut the top individual income tax rate twice and built the groundwork to phase out the state income tax entirely. Our tax rate is about a third of that in California and going down.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re able to slash taxes so heavily because our economy is booming, creating billion-dollar surpluses. As taxes continue to fall, our economy will continue to rise \u2013 the opposite of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/new-york-california-lost-more-tax-income-than-any-other-states-due-people-leaving-study\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Left Coast\u2019s downward spiral<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0But moving to Arkansas isn\u2019t just a pocketbook decision \u2013 it\u2019s about quality of life as well.<\/p>\n<p>As 48 million people discovered for themselves in 2022, Arkansas is, for good reason, the Natural State. From world-class duck hunting to fly-fishing, there are outdoor adventures for everyone \u2013 many of which are located just minutes from our urban centers.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/arkansas-high-court-sides-gov-sanders-state-lawmakersl-education-overhaul-case\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>ARKANSAS HIGH COURT SIDES WITH GOV.
