Sanders eyes possible run for Ark. gov.
HOT SPRINGS, Ark. (AP) — With paid speeches, a book coming out and appearances on cable news, Sarah Sanders is following the traditional route for former press secretaries after leaving the White House as U.S. President Donald Trump’s chief spokeswoman. But she’s also getting reacquainted with her home state of Arkansas and laying the groundwork for a potential governor’s race in three years.
Sanders has begun headlining Republican Party dinners around Arkansas, allowing her to reconnect with the state she called home before joining the Trump White House and offer GOP insiders a preview of what she’d look like as a candidate for the job her dad, Mike Huckabee, held for more than a decade. Speaking to a ballroom packed with more than 500 people in Hot Springs last week, the former press secretary known for her televised sparring with reporters joked about being greeted by applause when she comes to the podium.
“It’s very different than what I’m used to,” she said.
Sanders and her husband, a political consultant, moved to Little Rock in late July with their three children. Since leaving the White House, she’s joined Fox News as a contributor and announced that she has a book coming out next year about her time as press secretary.

Lilly Endowment Inc. was formally established in 1937 with gifts of stock in Eli Lilly and Company. The pharmaceutical firm was founded in Indianapolis in 1876 by Col. Eli Lilly, father of J.K. Sr. The first donations of 17,500 shares were originally valued at $262,500, but the giving of J.K. Sr. and his sons did not stop there. By 1971 their combined gifts (after stock splits) amounted to nearly 32 million shares valued at about $94 million. Several nonfamily members contributed another 210,000 shares, valued at $1.1 million. And the Endowment was included in the estate plan of Ruth Lilly, the daughter of J.K. Jr., resulting in gifts from her beginning in 2003 totaling more than $200 million.
The Endowment during the past 80 years has made grants totaling nearly $9.9 billion to 9,792 charitable organizations. At the end of 2017 the Endowment’s assets totaled $11.7 billion which will be used to benefit future generations.

The LIFT Network will accelerate the region’s shared vision, described in SBERP’s Ensuring Prosperity Plan, to create an environment that attracts, trains and retains top talent for tomorrow’s jobs. The LIFT Network also builds on the momentum created by an Indiana Regional Cities Initiative grant awarded to the region in 2015.
