The Legislature is back. Here’s what it should prioritize.

February 9, 2021
by Caleb Crosby Editorials

260 days. That’s how long it had been since the Alabama legislature had been in session. That’s 260 days for the coronavirus to spread and 260 days for Alabamians to feel the impact of the virus and our government’s response to it. Pair that with the fact ...
