A message from
Betty Pickett

    In the 31 years I have lived in Conway, I have been continually engaged in activities that promote the social, economic, and educational well being of the citizens of Conway and the State. I am pleased and honored that the voters of District 45 gave me the opportunity to extend my commitment to public service by allowing me to represent them in the Arkansas House of Representatives. The past two years have been challenging, but I am eager to apply the knowledge and experience I have gained during that time to work for Faulkner County, Conway and you.
    I look forward to visiting with you in the coming months and hope that I can earn your continued support.

You’ll be glad she’s there.

The knowledge and experience Betty Pickett has gained from her public service provide a sound and informed foundation for her service in the Arkansas legislature.
