Issue evidence — side by side

Recorded votes, documented positions and candidates’ own words are shown with sources. “In their own words” quotes a candidate on the topic without inferring a stance. Votes describe specific bills or motions; they do not establish overall support or opposition to a broad issue. A dash means our research has no evidence on that topic, not that the candidate has no position.

Research notes & limits

Key House floor votes and FEC campaign-finance totals for incumbent Rick Crawford are added separately by script and not duplicated here. Biography gaps: Parsons has not completed Ballotpedia's survey and his birthplace, education institution and career dates were not found; Green's origin is reported inconsistently (Paragould native in March 2026, El Paso, Texas in May 2026), so it is omitted.
