Bill Summary

AN ACT TO AMEND THE TIME OF PERMISSIBLE SALES OF FIREWORKS IN THIS STATE; AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.

AI Summary

This bill amends Arkansas state law regarding the permissible sales period for fireworks, specifically expanding the start date for summer fireworks sales from June 20 to June 13. Under the proposed change, residents of Arkansas would be able to purchase and use fireworks defined as "permissible items" for a longer period during two annual timeframes: from June 13 through July 10 for the summer season, and from December 10 through January 5 for the winter holiday season. The bill represents a relatively minor adjustment to existing fireworks regulations, effectively providing retailers and consumers with a week more of potential sales and usage during the summer period. The proposed change would apply statewide and maintains the existing restrictions on the specific types of fireworks that can be legally sold, focusing solely on modifying the temporal limitations of fireworks sales.
