  • 2021 Legislative Update Week 9
    2021 Legislative Update: Week 9 Overview Legislators returned to Montgomery this week after a planned Spring Break ready to begin the second half of the 2021 Regular Session. Representatives and Senators met for two legislative days this week with numerous committee meetings held on Wednesday. Legislators advanced bills relating to the habitual offender law, alcohol, vaping, medical marijuana, guns, and open records. Additionally, two legislative vacancies in Shelby County took one more step in getting filled. Habitual Offender Law A bill to repeal Alabama’s habitual offender law was favorably reported out of the House Judiciary Committee this week and is now in a position to be voted on by the full House. After a contentious discussion in committee, the legislation, House Bill 107 by Rep. Chris England of Tuscaloosa, was ultimately approved on a 9-5 vote. In addition to repealing the state’s Habitual Felony Offender Act, the bill also provides for resentencing for defendants whose sentences were based on the Habitual Felony Offender Act. Alcohol The House on Thursday passed two bills related to alcohol, sending one to the Governor and the other to the Senate. Senate Bill 126 by Sen. Jabo Waggoner of Vestavia Hills allows for the home delivery of beer, wine, and liquor. The deliveries can be from grocery stores, liquor stores, or restaurants, and must be made in accordance with strict protocols, including the requirement that a person 21 years or older must be present to receive the delivery. The legislation was strongly pushed by grocery delivery company Shipt, among other proponents. Managed in the House by Rep.
