VIDEO: Ivey rejects Biden call to extend mask order, Alabama has been slow to vaccinate, Dale Strong appears to be the frontrunner in AL-05 and more on Alabama Politics This Week …

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and political consultant Mecca Musick take you through Alabama’s biggest political stories, including:

— Is Governor Kay Ivey (R) still planning to let the mask mandate go away?

— Shouldn’t Alabama expand the vaccination eligibility at this point? (Editor’s note: this episode was filmed before Gov. Ivey on Friday announced an expansion of eligibility to all Alabamians age 16 and over beginning Monday)

— Is Madison County Commission Chairman Dale Strong the frontrunner for AL-05’s U.S. House seat?

Jackson and Musick are joined by the host of “The Valley Labor Report” Jacob Morrison to discuss the issues facing the state of Alabama this week.

Jackson closes the show with a “Parting Shot” directed at those who fixate on issues like allowing yoga to be taught in school and how dishonest the conversation is across the board.

Dale Jackson is a contributing writer to Yellowhammer News and hosts a talk show from 7-11 AM weekdays on WVNN and on Talk 99.5 from 10AM to noon.
