“Dollar General is worth fighting against”

Ranae Hillard has been against Dollar General moving into the Cushman city limits from day one.

“I moved to this area because I wanted to be away from city things,” she stated. “If I need to go to the grocery store or the pharmacy, I choose to live out here and drive into Batesville. I do not want to see stores in this area.”

Hillard claims that Dollar General stores make it easier for people with drug habits to use drugs in their bathrooms.

Hillard’s campaign to keep the store out of the city limits isn’t stopping it from happening as construction crews have hit the ground running on getting the store framed and ready for public use.

Since construction began, Hillard has stood on the main highway across from where the store is being built, holding signs and protesting.
