/ A bill that would have replaced the state’s existing Confederate Flag Day with a newly-created Arkansas Day failed in a Senate committee Monday. House Bill 1916 fell one vote short of the needed five in the Senate State Agencies and Governmental Affairs Committee to advance to the full Senate. Members voted 4-3 for it, with one member not voting. The bill, which passed in the House over a week ago with a vote of 80-7, would have replaced Arkansas’ Confederate Flag Day, which occurs the Saturday before Easter Sunday each year, with Arkansas Day. In presenting the bill to the Senate committee, Rep. Austin McCollum, R-Bentonville, spoke on the origins of Confederate Flag Day and how it was not established right after the Civil War, but instead was passed in the late 1950s during the civil rights movement. He also responded to claims that removing Confederate Flag Day would be erasing history.
