Expand all | Collapse all

I am a retired community college English instructor who has lived in this district for 38 years. I hope to represent the district in the Alabama House of Representatives in order to do all I can to improve the quality of life of all residents of the district and of the state. Through the bills I would support, I would work to make Alabama a more prosperous and compassionate state for all.
  • I will work to remove the state's 4% sales on groceries and to replace it responsibly. For most Alabama shoppers, the state's sales tax on food amounts to about two weeks' worth of groceries each year. Removing it would especially benefit lower-income residents.
  • Quality healthcare for all is a priority. That means that Medicaid should be expanded. Doing so would provide healthcare coverage for nearly 300,000 Alabamians, including many part-time and low-wage workers, and, over the next six years, would create an estimated 20,000 jobs per year in Alabama--significant economic development. In light of the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision, quality healthcare also means restoration of the full range of reproductive healthcare services and protection of a woman's right to privacy and of the physician's right to practice good medicine.
  • I will work to protect and expand voting rights. A number of election-related reforms would help to assure maximum voter participation and confidence in election integrity: For example, every 10 years, after the census, a non-partisan commission, not the legislature, should draw the boundaries of Congressional and legislative districts In addition, voting rights should be expanded in a variety of ways, such as through automatic voter registration for 18-year-olds; immediate restoration of voting rights for felons who have served their sentences, even if fines and fees are unpaid; no-excuse absentee voting; and early voting the weekend before Election Day.
1. I am especially passionate about expansion of Medicaid, which actually the Governor could do with her signature, because it would provide low-cost healthcare to those thousands of Alabamians who fall in the coverage gap between eligibility for Medicaid, as currently structured, and eligibility for the healthcare offered through the Affordable Care Act exchanges. Also, expanding it would create thousands of new jobs. Its coverage of tens of thousands of individuals would help to keep hospitals open that currently face possible closure. Besides, through our federal taxes, we are already helping to pay for expanded Medicaid in the 38 states, plus the District of Columbia, that have adopted and implemented it. Why do our Republican governor and her supporters in the legislature not allow Alabamians to benefit from it?

2.Defending democracy, making it easier, not harder, for eligible voters to vote and to be confident that their vote counts is the most pressing reason for me to seek elected office. I am running in the context of the unquestionable defeat of President Trump in 2020, the attempted coup of January 6, 2021, to prevent the peaceful transfer of presidential power, the ongoing efforts by radical Republican legislators throughout the country to make it legal for legislatures to thwart the will of the people, and the large number of current Republican candidates, including in Alabama, who are election deniers.
