I believe all Alabamians deserve a the same opportunities to enjoy The American Dream. That is why I will work hard every day as Alabama’s governor to:
- support all efforts to end voter suppression,
- oppose any efforts to silence the voice of voters,
- oppose any efforts to undermine The Voting Rights Act, especially those that misrepresent minority representation through gerrymandering Congressional districts,
- close the gender wage gap for women • Work to ensure that politics don’t interfere with efforts to promote equal rights for all,
- support the Equality Act, which would add LGBTQIA to the Civil Rights Act of 1965 as a protected class ,
- unify the State of Alabama, championing discussions on “race relations,” diversity, and equality,
- combat income inequality, working to ensure that women are truly paid the same wages for the same work,
- champion the rights of women—especially those who are victims of crimes which include abuse, bullying, domestic violence, human trafficking, and sexual assault,
- seek equal sentences for equal justice while ultimately combating recidivism,
- seek to end discrepancies between minimum sentences for illegal substances (crack, powder cocaine), and
- seek to prevent crime rather than trying to suppress it.
