Hello Fellow Arkansans,

 

My name is Micah Ashby and I am an everyday Arkansan just like you. ​I am a proud daughter of Arkansas, a steadfast Republican, a woman of strong Christian faith, and I am campaigning to represent our great state in the United States Senate. 

​

​

Why I am Running

​

Growing up in Arkansas, I learned the values that have shaped our communities for generations—family, faith, hard work, and personal responsibility. Whether it was helping my neighbors in times of need, attending church gatherings that brought us together, or working with the youth to shape our next generation, I witnessed firsthand the strength and resilience that define us.

Today, Arkansas stands at a crossroads. Tom Cotton has let Arkansans down. We are poised for progress, yet our values are under threat from political agendas that don’t reflect who we are. I am campaigning to run for U.S. Senate because I believe Arkansas deserves a voice in Washington that listens, defends our principles, and fights tirelessly for our interests. My mission is straightforward: to put Arkansas first, always.

My Great+ Grandfather, Captain John Ashby, fought for this country's independence under the order of President George Washington. George Washington and my great grandfather quickly became best friends during the revolutionary war. Just as my ancestors fought for this country's freedoms, I will fight in Washington D.C. so you can keep them. My bloodline is full of American Patriots and I will continue carrying the torch.

My Commitment to You

​

As a strong Republican woman I pledge to uphold the foundational principles that our nation was built upon:

​​

• Limited Government: I believe government should serve the people—not the other way around. I will fight to reduce bureaucratic red tape, cut wasteful spending, and return power to local communities.

• Promote School Safety: Our children are most important. Washington has not cared about this issue, nor have your elected officials bothered to bring forth a bill to solve this issue. It is not an issue of Gun Rights, which I support. You can have Gun Rights and school safety! I have a plan to protect schools using an AI weapon detection system. I will advocate for this technology to be in Arkansas schools and make Arkansas the leading state for school safety. Funding is available for this kind of technology and Washington has ignored it! Your Kids are safe under my leadership.

• Fiscal Responsibility: Our national debt threatens the future of our children and grandchildren. I will work to balance the budget, promote responsible investment, and ensure that taxpayer dollars are spent wisely and transparently. Your children deserve a bright future where houses are affordable and families can build a future in a flourishing economy.

• Defending the Second Amendment: I am a gun owner myself. The right to bear arms is fundamental to our liberty. I will oppose any efforts to restrict lawful gun ownership and champion the rights of responsible gun owners across Arkansas.

• Strong National Security: A secure America is a strong America. I will support our military, secure our borders, and advocate for policies that keep Arkansas families safe.

• Religious Liberty: Our freedom to worship and live according to our faith is non-negotiable. I will fight against any measure that threatens religious expression in our schools, workplaces, or public spaces. As a Christian Licensed and Ordained minister, Religious freedom is important to me. Jesus is King!

​

Supporting Arkansas Families

​​

Arkansas families are the heartbeat of our state. As your senator, I will champion policies that strengthen families, promote access to quality education, and expand economic opportunities.

​

• Educational Excellence: Our children deserve the best. I support parental choice, high standards, and local control of our schools. I will fight for policies that empower teachers and parents to shape bright futures for every student. *ALL ARKANSAS KIDS SHOULD EAT FREE AT SCHOOL

• Jobs and the Economy: Arkansas’s workforce is second to none. I will work to attract new industries, support small businesses, and invest in infrastructure that connects our state to the world. Economic growth should benefit every corner of Arkansas, from our rural communities to our vibrant cities. Not to mention fighting for Arkansas workers for fair wages and fair treatment.

• Healthcare Reform: Access to quality healthcare is critical, but so is affordability. I will advocate for market-driven solutions that lower costs, increase options, and protect those with pre-existing conditions. Bureaucrats shouldn’t stand between you and your doctor, nor should the federal government. Your Doctor should be able to make decisions on your treatment without fear of losing their license due to government overreach in our healthcare system.

• Standing with Farmers and Rural Communities: Agriculture is the backbone of Arkansas. I will stand up for our farmers, oppose unnecessary regulations, and promote innovation that keeps our agricultural sector strong and competitive. Our Arkansas farmers are on the brink of losing everything and something needs to be done before its too late. We should ask why our elected officials do not care and haven't taken action on this matter. 1 in 3 Arkansas Farmers could shut down by mid 2026. IT MATTERS! This is a desperate situation that needs attention and i will give our farmers the voice they need.

​

A New Era of Leadership

​​

Washington is broken because too many politicians have forgotten who they serve. My pledge to you is honesty, transparency, and accessibility. I will be present in every county, listen to your concerns, and bring your voices to the Senate floor.

This campaign is not about me—it’s about us. It’s about building a future where Arkansas leads the way in opportunity, security, school safety, farming, and freedom. I believe in the potential of our people and the promise of our state. Together, I believe we can restore trust in our government and leave a legacy of prosperity for the next generation.

This generation is tired of people in office who don’t speak for them. I am 34 and I have an understanding of what this generation is going through and facing. I understand the frustration with our elected officials in Washington. They don’t speak for you and me, they speak for themselves, only to fill their pockets, selling out Americans like you and me.

My Story

​

I was raised right here in Arkansas, learning early on the importance of hard work and integrity. After graduating from Augusta High school, I built my career rooted in service to my family, my community, my church, and the younger generation. My experiences have shaped me into the leader I am today: principled, determined, and always striving to do what is right.

​

• I am Licensed and Credentialed in the Missionary Baptist Church.

• I served as a youth pastor for 5 years in Newport, Arkansas.

• Attended Arkansas State University

• My Husband and I Served as Pastors, as well as, evangelists.

 

My journey has not been without challenges, I have been paralyzed from the waist down, not once, but twice. I am now recovered, and every obstacle has only strengthened my resolve. I understand the struggles that Arkansans face because I have lived them. I know what it means to stretch a paycheck, not be able to afford groceries, to be in the American medical system, to dream of better opportunities for our children, and to work tirelessly for a better tomorrow. Arkansas needs people in office that understand the struggles they are facing. I have been in the everyday Arkansans shoes, unlike those already in Washington. I don’t represent Washington, I represent you.

​

Listening to You

​​

This election is about more than just policies, it’s about listening. I want to hear from you: your ideas, your stories, your hopes for our state. My campaign will be open to every Arkansan, regardless of background or political affiliation. Together, we will shape a vision that reflects our shared values and aspirations. 

I invite you to reach out, attend our town halls, and join the conversation. Your voice matters, and I am committed to representing you with integrity and respect.

​

Why This Matters

​​

I cannot do this alone. I am asking for your support—whether it’s volunteering, donating, sharing our message, or simply voting on election day. Every action you take brings us one step closer to building the Arkansas we deserve. Tom Cotton is backed by big money, so it will take an army, but i believe Arkansas is that Army and we are ready for CHANGE!

• Volunteer your time to help with community events.

• Share our campaign on social media, as well as, with your friends and neighbors.

• Stay informed about the issues and make your voice heard at the ballot box.

• Donate, if you are able, to help us reach as many Arkansans as possible. Donate to send Washington a message! We are tired of Elected Officials not speaking for us!

​

A Final Word

​​

Arkansas is my home, and her people are my inspiration. If you trust me with your vote, I promise to work every day to honor that trust and to serve you faithfully. Together, we can bring common sense, compassion, and leadership that represents you back to Washington.

Let us stand united, defend our values, and build an Arkansas that shines as a beacon for this nation.

Thank you for your time, your support, and your belief in the promise of our state. I look forward to meeting you on the campaign trail and working together for a brighter future.

God Bless Arkansas, and God Bless America.

 

Sincerely,

Micah Ashby
