The co-chairman of a legislative committee overseeing the audit of a $19,000 lectern purchased for Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders has announced that the report is anticipated to be made public within the next 10 days. The Legislative Joint Auditing Committee, led by Republican Rep. Jimmy Gazaway and Republican Sen. David Wallace, received the report from auditors last Friday and is currently in the process of reviewing its contents.
Gazaway emphasized the importance of ensuring the report is thoroughly examined before its release to the public or potential committee hearing. He stated, 'As the chairs of the committee, we felt like it was important to review it before it's released. I think we have an obligation to ensure it's in good form and good order, and that's what we're doing.'
