Why local facts matter
On the 2025 civics test, some answers depend on your state. For Arkansas, that includes the governor, the state capital, one current senator, and your U.S. representative.
Lock in the state capital and the governor before adding names that can change.
USCIS asks for one senator, so pick the name you can say most confidently out loud.
Finish with your House representative because that answer depends on your current address.
District-aware answer
Your U.S. representative depends on where you live inside Arkansas. Use the district lookup below to practice the correct House answer for your part of the state.

Common questions
These are the follow-up questions applicants usually ask when they start reviewing state-specific answers.
For Arkansas applicants, the current governor answer for Arkansas is Sarah Huckabee Sanders. This is one of the answers applicants should re-check close to interview day because governors can change after elections, resignations, or appointments.
For Arkansas applicants, the capital of Arkansas is Little Rock. Capitals are stable facts, but they still matter because USCIS may ask the question exactly as "What is the capital of your state?"
For Arkansas applicants, one correct senator answer is John Boozman or Tom Cotton. Either name works because USCIS asks for one senator, not both, but it helps to know both names for review.
For Arkansas applicants, your House answer depends on your address, not just your state. Arkansas currently has 4 congressional districts, so use a ZIP code or address lookup when available, or choose your district in the fallback tool on this page.
