Duke Energy and Boeing are also on this list despite these entity’s public declarations in January aimed at their customers and shareholders that were pausing all donations for a period of time, including those to members that voted against certifying the election. The leaders, companies and trade groups associated with these PACs should have to answer for their support of lawmakers whose votes that fueled the violence and sedition we saw on January 6.

    Senate Committee Musical Chairs August 15, 2018 Key Retiring Committee Seniority over Sitting Chair/Ranking Member Viewed as Seat Republicans Will Most Likely Retain Viewed as Potentially At Risk Republican Seat Viewed as Republican Seat at Risk Viewed as Seat Democrats Will Most Likely Retain Viewed as Potentially At Risk Democratic Seat Viewed as Democratic Seat at Risk Notes • The Senate Republican leader is not term-limited; Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will likely remain majority leader. The only member of Senate GOP leadership who is currently term-limited is Republican Whip John Cornyn (R-TX). • Republicans have term limits of six years as chairman and six years as ranking member. Republican members can only use seniority to bump sitting chairs/ranking members when the control of the Senate switches parties. • Committee leadership for the Senate Aging; Agriculture; Appropriations; Banking; Environment and Public Works (EPW); Health Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP); Indian Affairs; Intelligence; Rules; and Veterans Affairs Committees are unlikely to change. Notes • Current Armed Services Committee (SASC) Chairman John McCain (R-AZ) continues to receive treatment for brain cancer in Arizona. Senator James Inhofe (R-OK) has served as acting chairman and is likely to continue to do so in Senator McCain’s absence. If Republicans lose control of the Senate, Senator McCain would lose his top spot on the committee because he already has six years as ranking member. • In the unlikely scenario that Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) does not take over the Finance Committee, Senator Mike Crapo (R-ID), who currently serves as Chairman of the Banking Committee, could take over the Finance Committee.

Recipient Loans Grants Project Description AL Doug Jones, Bradley Byrne Town of Loxley $111,400 $46,000 This Rural Development investment will be used to purchase four new vehicles, three Richard Shelby (01) equipped as police vehicles and one administrative vehicle for the town of Fort Deposit. The vehicles are in operation 24 hours a day, a factor that limits their useful life to approximately five years. The current fleet is beyond its useful life. AL Doug Jones, Martha Roby City of Union Springs $227,700 $50,000 This Rural Development investment will used to purchase a new pumper fire truck. Richard Shelby (02) The fire department currently has an inoperable 30-year-old truck and a 20-year-old one. The new pumper truck will replace the 30-year-old truck. This will allow for safer, more dependable fire protection for the community. AL Doug Jones, Cary Palmer City of Jemison $351,400 $50,000 This Rural Development investment will be used to purchase a 6,000 square foot Richard Shelby (06) public safety building that will become a second fire station and office space for the police department. The current fire station is located on the west side of the city. The city is divided by a CSX Railroad that causes response delays for the east side of the city. The new fire station will allow the city to provide better services to the east side. This will improve Jemison's ISO Public Protection Classification Rating, which could lower insurance premiums for the homeowners.

    Christianity in America Congressman Gary Palmer, Speaker June 30, 2019 • Evening Sermon

    Christianity in America Congressman Gary Palmer, speaker June 30, 2019 • Evening Sermon A lot has changed in the last 11 years when I spoke here at Briarwood. George W. Bush was President of the U.S. and Spencer Bachus was your congressman. I didn’t have a beard. I have thought about what else has changed in the last 11 years. We are much more divided as a nation. We have a crisis on our hands that I think we have to think honestly to and be willing to acknowledge. The thing that bothers me most is how quickly we forget who we are. I recently had a meeting on Capitol Hill and it was one of those clear nights. I was walking past the Supreme Court and got in front of the Capitol. It’s rare that there is nobody there but that night there was nobody there. I could see the stars behind the dome and it was one of those times that it hit me where I was. It happened to be a day or two before the anniversary of D-Day and the question popped into my head ‘I wonder who was the first soldier to die that morning those boats hit those beaches and I wonder what he was thinking?’ He may have been 19 or 20 years old and could hear those bullets hitting the ramp as the engines were turning trying to get them as close as they could to the beach. When the ramp came down did his foot ever touch the surf? I am amazed but what is even more amazing is that the guys behind him kept going not knowing how that day might end for them.
