Alabama is the only state that gives Davis his own holiday—an honor not even his own state of Mississippi bestows. Davis and his compatriots were wrong in 1861, and they are wrong now. We must immediately repeal Alabama Code sec. 1-3-8(b)(4), which authorizes his holiday.

Seriously Alabama, @TTuberville is like Eddie Murphy from The Distinguished Gentleman. No record, shady past, no real experience and incapable of doing the job. You shouldn’t be able to run for public office and run from the public at the same time. #realonesknow #wecandobetter

How bad of a candidate is Tuberville? His advisors won't let him debate & have stopped allowing him to make public appearances with media present. And today, they've spent all day scrambling bc a reporter is interviewing his former players. It's insanity. And you know it.

This could potentially be a huge problem for the Legislature’s immunity plan. It could eventually create a pathway at some point in the near future for a judge to determine whether or not the law we pass is Constitutional. It could also potentially cause clinics to close again.

Our current prison population is 51% Black and 47% White. In May and June, 622 parole hearings were held. They granted 103. Of the 103, 77 were White and 26 were Black. Seems like the system being used is creating a significant disparity. Any thoughts on that @ALBPP ?
