Did you watch the State of the Union address earlier this month? Let me know your thoughts here »
It was a strong night for the President, a powerful night for the Democratic agenda, and a night when Alabama took center stage in a lot of ways….and we're still feeling the momentum from that day.
On the Anniversary of Bloody Sunday, with Bettie Mae Fikes — the “voice of Selma” — along with several foot soldiers in attendance, Joe made clear we will no longer stand for Republicans undermining freedom, democracy, and the rule of law. This election year, we are going to fight back against:
- Voter Suppression,
- Election Subversion,
- Extreme Gerrymandering, and
- Dangerous Republican obstruction.
Joe also addressed head-on the ongoing Republican attack on reproductive rights unleashed by the overturning of
Roe v. Wade. Sitting right next to the first lady was
Latorya Beasley — a social worker from Birmingham whose family’s dream of having a second child was put on hold with the recent Alabama Supreme Court decision to give embryos personhood, threatening IVF treatments across our state.
He made it clear we must get back to the job of delivering for the American people — and that means focusing on:
- Protecting reproductive rights and personal healthcare decisions,
- Building our economy and infrastructure,
- Addressing immigration, and
- Solving climate change for the next generation.
But, now, I want to hear from you? What priorities raised by the president are most important to you? And what priorities do you think we need to focus on here in AL-07?
Thank you for your feedback and support.
