About Hallie Shoffner
Hallie Shoffner is a wife, mother, sixth-generation Arkansan, row crop farmer and small business owner. She’s running for US Senate to fight for her neighbors because hardworking Arkansans shouldn’t have to choose between affording their life and enjoying it; Arkansans deserve both health insurance and access to providers; and every community should have first-rate infrastructure and a fighting chance: Arkansas farmers have earned a forward-thinking Farm Bill, and every family is entitled to reliably clean water, strong schools, affordable housing, high-quality childcare and elder care, 
and broadband so they can compete in a global economy.
