Thank you meemaw. It's not perfect but it is a start. I was disappointed in her original handling of the situation. Cannot wait to vote her our and vote sessions in when he completes the plan. Lol
Meemaw, lol! Ditto your sentiments. Sessions will be vindicated in the end, I believe.
North or South alabama ?
Thank God! I really didn't want to have to move. Not sure there are any good states left to chose from.
North or South al?
North
Great job Meemaw! Now, just sign the bill to make us a 2A sanctuary state!!
Please.
Ala-freaking-bama! Good job!
This isn't a BOOM. This is a 76 year old swamp rat throwing a bone to the base to distract from her failures. If you live in Alabama and actually think Meemaw clampett gives a shit about the voters you aren't looking close enough. She rammed through a wildly unpopular gast tax hike that the voters of Alabama told her and the state house and Senate they didn't want. Granted this happened before the coof so maybe everyone forgot. I didn't and many others havent either. Our state prison system is an absolute shambles and she has bungled it since day one. She is also one of the governors that was on the list of bought and paid for China shills that Mike Pompeo released a while back. Passing this doesn't change the fact she is incompetent at best and corrupt at worst. Please continue to sing the praises of Meemaw Clampett I think it's hilarious.
Desantis is indeed a head scratcher. I just don't understand the appeal of kay ivey. The old southern grandmaw shtick has been wearing thin with me since she came into office. Look at her works not her words. The same goes for any and all politicians. Tuberville has already started turning his back on us and he just fucking got elected.
Very true Fren. Quality points. ?
Haha thats funny. Meemaw Clampett is still a bought off China shill swamp rat though. I guess everybody also forgets how she got into office in the first place. Montgomery Burns AKA Robert Bentley gets thrown out because he couldn't keep his crank in his pants. Ivey is the Lt governer so she finishes his term. Then she runs for her first full term against Walt Maddox who was mayor of Tuscaloosa. Maddox tried to hold up his response to the 2011 tornadoes as proof he could run the state. It then comes out that he as mayor used imminent domain to take away residential property from tornado victims so it can be rezoned commercial and buisnesses could build on it. I can't find a link to that but I distinctly remember it being reported. This of course give Meemaw Clampett all the ammo she needs to win not to mention all a Republican has to do is fog up a mirror in Alabama and they get elected. Don't get me wrong Maddox was a piece of shit and will always be one but when you run against a guy like that it's not hard to win.
kek
wish i could smash the up vote button a few more times, Fren, TY, needed a laugh!
Still voting her out. She is a reactionists and only acts when she is pushed into a corner and is always one of the last governors to follow the true patriot governors. You think someone like that is the type of person needed to force our military, government and citizens to action when the Dems refuse to decertify?
Is this now the 8th state to issue such a passport ban?
Synopsis:
Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey Signs Bill Banning Vaccine Passports
May 25, 2021 By Gabe Kaminsky
Alabama Republican Gov. Kay Ivey approved a measure Monday to ban the usage of vaccine passports in the state. S.B. 267, which passed the legislature earlier this month, prohibits public institutions and private businesses from requiring Alabama residents to show “documentation of immunization” to be provided service.
“I am supportive of a voluntary vaccine, and by signing this bill into law, I am only further solidifying that conviction,” the governor said shortly after signing the bill. “I made the choice to get the COVID-19 vaccine and glad for the peace of mind it brings. I encourage any Alabamian who has not gotten their shot to roll up their sleeves, and if you have questions, consult with your health care provider.” “Since the development of the COVID-19 vaccine, both [state health official] Dr. [Scott] Harris and I have said that we would not mandate vaccines in the state of Alabama,” Ivey continued. “I am supportive of a voluntary vaccine and by signing this bill into law, I am only further solidifying that conviction.”
The White House announced last Friday it will not require people entering the executive mansion to provide vaccination proof. After news broke that the Biden administration is working with private industries to develop vaccine passports, press secretary Jen Psaki walked back those comments.
“The government is not now nor will we be supporting a system that requires Americans to carry a credential,” and “there will be no federal vaccinations database and no federal mandate requiring everyone to obtain a single vaccination credential,” Psaki said in an April press conference.
Alabama joins a list of other states that have acted to ban the requirement of vaccine passports. Florida, Wyoming, South Dakota, and others have enacted similar bans. The Alabama law is “protecting the privacy rights of Alabamians from the federal overreach of the Biden Administration,” the state GOP said after Ivey signed the bill.
This is a weasel statement using sleight of hand to distract people from being aware that they're still going to encourage and allow the "free market" to determine the use of vaccine passports / proof. The oligarchs still continue their evil schemes unabated by crafty politi-speak.
Way to go bama.
Love You Mowmaw Ivey!
