Asa Hutchinson was sworn in as the 46th Governor of Arkansas in January 2015, and immediately set in motion his plan to bring more jobs and economic growth to his native state. Governor Hutchinson kept a major campaign promise by working to pass the biggest income tax rate cut in state history. His initiative to require computer-coding classes in every public high school makes Arkansas a national leader and signals to businesses everywhere that our students will be prepared for the 21st century economy. As part of his strategy to market Arkansas and attract more jobs and businesses to the state, Governor Hutchinson already has met with CEOs of major industries across the globe from Silicon Valley to Germany, China, Japan, Israel, France, and Cuba. On the national stage, Governor Hutchinson has been a key leader on energy, security and education. Before being elected governor, Asa Hutchinson served as Director of the Drug Enforcement Administration and as the first Undersecretary of the Department of Homeland Security. Voters in Arkansas`s Third District also elected him to Congress three times.
Shelter is a basic human need – essential for accomplishing almost everything we need and want to do. From getting a job and raising a family to cooking dinner and celebrating a birthday. Yet for many rural Nevadans safe, affordable shelter is out of reach. In 1973, the Nevada Rural Housing Authority (NRHA) was created to address this need. NRHA was originally created as a state agency in 1973 and operated under the Department of Business and Industry as a Public Housing Authority. In 1995, NRHA was separated from State government by new legislation and became a quasi-governmental unit with its own five-member governing board appointed by the Nevada League of Cities and Nevada Association of Counties. In 2005, legislation AB372 clarified our jurisdiction and programs and established that our organization is not subject to the state budgetary process enabling us to be more diverse and innovative in our services. Working with a consortium of public, private, and social partners, NRHA provides affordable housing and economic development solutions for rural Nevada. We believe when more Nevadans are able to purchase a home of their own or can find affordable rental units, we all benefit through stronger more stable and economically vital communities. In 2006, NRHA launched the Home At Last™ home financing program to expand homeownership opportunities in the rural parts of the state. In 2009 NRHA launched our real estate division and become more active in helping rural cities and counties address a broader scope of economic development challenges.
Act 254 of 1959 placed responsibility for the "sale of securities" under the jurisdiction of the State Bank Department, and provided for a State Securities Commissioner. The Securities Commissioner was to be appointed by the Governor and subject to the supervision of the State Bank Commissioner, and operated as a division of the State Bank Department. Act 38 of 1971 transferred both the State Bank Department and the State Securities Department to the Department of Commerce. Each division continued to function independently of the Commerce Department with regard to the prescribed statutory powers, authorities, duties, and rulemaking responsibilities they had prior to the transfer. Act 471 of 1973 amended Act 254 of 1959 to provide that the Securities Division was no longer a part of the State Bank Department and the Securities Commissioner was no longer subject to the supervision of the State Bank Commissioner. The Act further provided that the Securities Division be renamed the Arkansas Securities Department and that all Acts previously regulated by the Securities Division be transferred to the new agency effective July 1, 1973. In early 1975, it became apparent that the special revenue fund balances transferred to the Department by the Bank Department pursuant to Act 471 of 1973 would not be sufficient to continue operation of the Department at its current level. Act 863 of 1975 amended all Acts administered by the Department to reclassify all revenues received by the Department as general revenues. Thus, effective July 1, 1975, the Department ceased being a special revenue agency and became a general revenue agency with all expenditures paid from the general revenues of the State. Act 691 of 1983 abolished the Department of Commerce. Section 3 of the Act directed that the State Securities Department shall function as an independent agency. The Securities Commissioner is appointed by the Governor and serves at the pleasure of the Governor. Act 659 of 1993 created on the books of the Chief Fiscal Officer of the State and those of the State Treasurer a fund to be known as the "Securities Department Fund." Such fund is to be used for the maintenance, operation, support and improvement of the State Securities Department. Portions of the filing fees collected under the Securities Act are designated as special revenue and deposited into the Securities Department Fund. Currently, the maximum amount of fees deposited into such fund is limited to $2.5 million in each fiscal year. The remainder of the filing fees are deposited into General Revenues. Act 759 of 2003 created the Investor Education Fund. The Investor Education Program is funded from administrative fines assessed under the Securities Act. Fines received in excess of $150,000 are deposited into General Revenues. Pursuant to the Cemetery Act for Perpetually Maintained Cemeteries, as amended, the Securities Commissioner served as a voting member and Secretary of the Cemetery Board. Effective July 1, 2018, the Cemetery Board was merged into a newly created board with the Board of Funeral Directors and Embalmers and the Burial Board. The new board in under the Insurance Department. Pursuant to the Savings and Loan Association Act, Act 227 of 1963, as amended, the Securities Commissioner acts as the Supervisor of savings and loan associations. In 1997, the Savings and Loan Association Act was amended to do away with the Savings and Loan Association Board and transferred the Savings and Loan Associtions Board`s power and authority to the Securities Commissioner.
