Good News : Tim and I presented a grant check to Corner Theatre Academy. Thank you to Megan Garner and the Corner High School drama team for the beautiful productions you put on for the community. This grant is made possible by the Jefferson County Community Service Fund. #Our67 #Wadsworth  While in Mobile this week, Tim and I visited Callaghan’s, a local favorite. Located in the Historic Oakleigh Garden District, Callaghan’s has been in business since 1946. #Our67 #Wadsworth #DineLocal  Tim and I started Legislative Spring Break by spending three days exploring Alabama’s Gulf Coast. We stayed in historic Mobile and ran the Azalea Trail 10K, visited local eateries and historic sites, and drove to Gulf Shores with family. It was one of the best trips we have taken to Mobile in 4 years. #Our67 #Wadsworth      Thank you to the Alabama Grocer's Association for coordinating Buy Alabama's Best Day in Montgomery this week! This campaign creates awareness on the importance of purchasing made in Alabama food products. Our state's food retail industry supplies over 70,000 jobs. Next time you are at the grocery store, look for the Buy Alabama’s Best section and support your local food and beverage producers. #Our67      Yesterday I had the pleasure of taking our page from Arley, Jaylee Rouse, and her family on a tour of The Fitzgerald Museum, the world’s only museum dedicated to the life and legacy of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald. Thank you to Dr. Alaina Doten, Museum Director, for your hospitality. #Our67 #Gatsby      We are thankful to have a wonderful group of pages and interns join us over the past two weeks in Montgomery. Legislative paging and internships give students an opportunity to assist with everyday duties and make an excellent addition to resumes for students interested on government or policy. Thank you for spending time with us! #Our67 #TimAndNicole #Wadsworth      GOOD NEWS Sunbelt Solomon expands in Elba: Sunbelt Solomon has over 100 years of combined experience and takes pride in providing comprehensive solutions for utility, industrial, and commercial applications.

Daughter was having knee issues, and staff used technology to analyze her instep and find an insert that has worked wonders. Thank you, Fleet Feet. Support this small business located on University Boulevard. #Our67  An Evening with Governor Ron DeSantis - Gov. DeSantis focused on topics that are fundamental to the survival of our nation - sound economic policies, support of American businesses, energy independence, support of our military and police, protection of our borders, combating the influx of fentanyl, age-appropriate curricula, and more. Thank you to the Alabama Republican Party for organizing this opportunity. #Our67     Today the Alabama House and Senate held a Joint Session to honor the retirement of United States Senator Richard Shelby. His tenure came back full circle to the Old House Chamber, 51 years after he served in the Alabama Legislature. Thank you, Senator Shelby, for your service. #Our67      Tuesday evening we were honored to attend Governor Kay Ivey's State of the State Address. A refreshing theme resonated in the Old House Chamber - Alabama’s business climate is strong. Economic development is a team effort, and our Governor has worked with the public and private sector to foster an environment conducive for businesses, small and large. Quality of life and education go hand-in-hand with economic development efforts. Governor Ivey reaffirmed a commitment to education with a goal that Alabama’s K-12 students will rank within the top 30 states for reading and math proficiency by 2026. Governor Ivey called a Special Session to allocate ARPA funds and once again, cautioned recipients that this is one-time funding and not to be used as a mechanism to fund positions or maintenance requests that will need ongoing revenue to support.
