VIDEO: Alabama’s mask order, Tuberville wins big to face Senator Jones, AEA could work to end in-class instruction and more on Alabama Politics This Week …

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 Governor Kay Ivey’s mask order have an impact, or are we heading towards another lockdown?

— Does former Auburn head coach Tommy Tuberville’s big win on Tuesday pretty much signal the end of U.S. Senator Doug Jones’ (D-AL) time in the Senate?

— Will the Alabama Education Association go all out to kill in-class instruction for the upcoming school year?

Jackson and Handback are joined by unopposed candidate for Madison County Commission Violet Edwards to talk about tearing down Confederate statues, the state’s coronavirus response and Doug Jones’ chance for reelection.

Jackson closes the show with a “parting shot” at folks who think mask orders are an unconstitutional overreach by government. He argues that instead of fighting the order, we should all be working to get the COVID-19 numbers down so we can get back to normal.

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