Wishing you and yours a very Happy Mother's Day full of love, joy, and peace.

After what happened in the legislature this week, we definitely need some #FridayInspiration

I voted against HB1. I began my remarks by saying, "I want to remind us of a principle... fairness. Fairness in how we govern. Fairness in how we draw our districts. And fairness in how we ensure that every Alabamian — every single one — has a voice in our democratic process."

Here are some resources for citizen's advocacy to protect your right to vote.

“I think in 1965, when the legislation was first enacted, that it was enacted for a reason, and I think not only is that reason still there, but it’s even more compelling today with the shortage we have in social workers” www.alreporter.com/2026/01/30/a...
