I’m a mom, a conservative, and proud to stand for every corner of Alabama—our cities, small towns, and rural communities alike. I’m rooted in faith, built on family, and committed to making Alabama stronger and better for generations to come. Alabama is a place of hard work, strong values, and unyielding independence. But the Left is trying to tear that all down. I didn’t come to Washington to play games. I came to fight for every Alabamian who feels forgotten and left behind. Whether it’s securing our borders, protecting our children, or defending our way of life, I’m here fighting for Alabama’s future. This fight isn’t easy, but it's worth it. And I’m not going anywhere. Will you stand with me? | | | | | Celebrate conservative leadership and show your patriotism with this unique, high quality, Made-in-America hat. | | | | Follow Katie On Social Media: | SIGN UP FOR SMS ALERTS: TEXT "KATIE" TO 27488 | By texting KATIE, you consent to join a recurring SMS/MMS text messaging program that will provide alerts, donation requests, updates, and other important information.
