Did you catch Capitol Journal this week?
We are covering what was a pretty busy week in Alabama politics, including the Veterans Affairs situation, First Lady Jill Biden’s visit to Maxwell, Manufacture Alabama in Point Clear, school security concerns and updates to the fallen heroes memorial.
Montgomery District Attorney Daryl Bailey and Trisha Mellberg Cater, the new executive director of the Alabama District Attorneys Association join me for a discussion about crime and growing issues with how prosecutors are funded in Alabama.
Alabama Appleseed Research Director Leah Nelson and UAB Professor Peter Jones are in studio to talk about their report showing the disparate way victims of crime are compensated in restitution.
And Othni Lathram, director of the Legislative Services Agency, sits down to discuss the latest progress with the new state house being constructed next door.
