Alabama Policy Institute 30th-anniversary celebration to honor U.S. Rep. Gary Palmer

The Alabama Policy Institute (API) on Thursday will hold its 30th-anniversary celebration at the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum in Leeds.

The celebration will feature a reception at 5:30 p.m. CT followed by the program commencing at 7:00 p.m.

Rick Burgess, the popular radio co-host of “The Rick & Bubba Show,” will emcee the celebration.

The evening will also honor Congressman Gary Palmer (AL-06), API’s cofounder.

Gary Bauer, former president of the Family Research Council and former senior vice president of Focus on the Family, will deliver a keynote address.

Bauer served in President Ronald Reagan’s administration as undersecretary of education and chief domestic policy advisor. Additionally, Bauer ran for president himself in 2000 as a Republican, participating in five national debates. Known as a leading proponent of religious liberty in America, he most recently was appointed by President Donald Trump to serve on the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom.
