I’m off to Alabama Arise Lobby Day in Montgomery. If you’re free, join us at 9:30 at the state capitol. Spend some time learning about the issues Arise is working on and then visit with your legislator. It’s a great opportunity for some face time with the people who are elected to represent you.
Kathy, could you feel out the leadership of Alabama Arise about how they feel about Initiative and Referendum (I&R) being the key that would unlock the door for REAL reform and accountability legislation in Alabama?
I think that Alabama Arise and other grassroots groups, as well as voters in general, would benefit from helping Alabama to become the 25th I&R state. I would love to see that organization and others express support for, and work for the passage of, Representative Mike Ball’s I&R constitution amendment, HB423.
