According to his biographer, Cathy Kunzinger Urwin, Rockefeller ’ s “ good-government ” reform proposals included: revision of the Arkansas State Constitution, governmental administrative reorganization, election law reform ( a " little Hatch Act " to prohibit state employees from engaging in political activities on the job ), teacher tenure, taxpayer-funded kindergarten under Amendment 53, adult and continuing education programs, rehabilitation and vocational training in the corrections system, and the recurring attempts at industrial recruitment.
One of Rockefeller ’ s most publicized “ good-government ” reforms was the ending of illegal gambling in the resort city of Hot Springs.
He also made headway in streamlining state government and secured passage of a state minimum-wage law.
