Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and Alabama Democratic Executive Committee member Lisa Handback take you through this week’s biggest political stories, including:
— Will the attacks the top three Republican U.S. Senate candidates are leveling make a difference with voters?
— Do U.S. Senator Doug Jones’ (D-AL) repeated pro-abortion comments signal that he knows he is all but finished in this year’s general election?
— A surprising number of Republicans voted to move a medical marijuana bill in the Alabama Senate. Does this mean the legislature is going to actually get a bill passed by both legislative bodies?
Jackson and Handback are joined by U.S. Representative Bradley Byrne (R-Fairhope) to discuss his run for U.S. Senate, attacks leveled both against him by his opponents and the Democrats’ impeachment fervor.
Jackson closes the show with a “parting shot” where he discusses Alabama lawmakers’ attempts to reform Alabama’s bail system in a way that keeps bad guys in jail longer in spite of the moves in other states to lower or eliminate bail altogether.
Dale Jackson is a contributing writer to Yellowhammer News and hosts a talk show from 7-11 am weekdays on WVNN.
