Representative Fite in 2013 joined the required majority to override the [[veto|vetoes]] of Democratic Governor [[Mike Beebe]] to enact legislation to require photo identification for casting a ballot in Arkansas and to ban [[abortion]] after twenty weeks of gestation. She co-sponsored both of those measures. Fite similarly supported related [[pro-life]] legislation to ban abortion whenever [[fetus|fetal]] heartbeat is detected, to forbid the inclusion of abortion in the state insurance exchange, and to make the death of an unborn child a [[felony]] in certain cases. She voted for a proposed spending cap in the state budget, but the measure failed to gain approval by two votes in the House. She co-sponsored amended state income tax rates. She co-sponsored the bill to empower officials of religious institutions to engage in the concealed carry of firearms. Fite backed similar legislation to permit university officials to carry concealed weapons in the name of campus safety. She co-sponsored legislation to prohibit the governor from regulating firearms in an emergency. Fite opposed legislation to make the office of prosecuting attorney in Arkansas [[nonpartisan]]. She voted for a law, signed by Governor Beebe, to permit the sale of up to five hundred gallons per month of [[pasteurization|unpasteurized]] whole milk directly from the farm to consumers. She voted to prohibit the closure of public schools based on declining enrollments over a two-year period, but the measure was defeated.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://votesmart.org/candidate/key-votes/136714/charlene-fite#.Usow6pV3sfQ|title=Charlene Fite's Voting Records|publisher=Project Vote Smart|accessdate=November 23, 2020}}</ref>
