A Real Conniption (Guest: State Rep. Mary Moore)

Josh and David open with a discussion of Alabama’s absurd plan to use COVID money to pay for prisons. Rep. Mary Moore zooms in to provide insight on negotiations with Alabama Republicans on the prison plan, and the insanity resulted. We wrap with a look at the continued decimation of the Alabama Open Records Act, particularly where police are concerned, and this week’s Rightwing Nut of the Week.  Send us a question: We take a bit of time each week to answer questions from our audience about Alabama politics — or Alabama in general. If you have a question about a politician, a policy, or a trend — really anything — you can shoot us an email at [email protected]. You can also send it to us on Facebook and Twitter. Or by emailing us a voice recording to our email with your question, and we may play it on air. Either way, make sure you include your name (first name is fine) and the city or county where you live.
