@BillingsJT @alisonlovestv Sounds like a misinterpretation of law. The unborn baby is unfortunately no longer alive therefore not subject to abortion law. Prayers for this family <U+0001F64F><U+0001F3FC>

While touring the damaged areas in Bibb County, spoke with a home owner not far from where this picture was taken. He said to me with a smile on his face, “It got my home and my Silverado, but it didn’t get me.” - Praise God https://t.co/2xLUkn4OxJ
Proud to receive a perfect score from @alabamapolicy scorecard. The conservative values and the dedication to serve the voters of District 49 asked for. https://t.co/drpqIqifEy
Long day for the citizens of Bibb and Shelby Counties. The sun will rise in the morning and we will all be amazed there was not more injuries and loss of life. Glory to God for his protection.
So much great local county leadership all across Alabama. Thanks @AlabamaCounties for asking me to speak https://t.co/jXCoJhUrkb

The thin blue line represents the willingness of law enforcement to stand in the gap between the evil in our society and its intended victims. On this National Law Enforcment Appreciation Day, a grateful nation thanks you, and I salute you as my fellow brothers and sisters. https://t.co/dYTYHNzhue
I can no longer stand silent and wait for the process to take it<U+2019>s course. I join many others in our State that call upon the Governor to place any proposed legislation on our upcoming special session that will put a stop to this egregious overreach of the federal government.
Friends and neighbors we have experienced some significant damage from strong storms that passed through Bibb and Shelby Counties. Please stay out of the impacted areas and let the first responders do their job. Prayers for all the impacted families.
