The DACC’s Governmental Affairs Council, chaired by Claudia Hall from Southeast Health, falls under this goal and oversees the Legislative Affairs Task Force and Military Affairs Committee. The objective of the Legislative Affairs Task Force is to advocate for strong and sound business policies and to facilitate member involvement in the legislative process. The annual Eggs & Issues Breakfast gives chamber members the opportunity to network and hear from their legislators on the current issues and plans for the 2020 session. You can also participate in an electronic survey on the many issues the legislature will consider including state prisons, rural health care, broadband and a statewide lottery. Public policy affects us all, both personally and professionally. That is why it is important for us to be engaged with our legislators and provide them input on the issues. The first day of the 2020 regular session will be Tuesday, Feb. 4. Tickets for the luncheon are $15 per person or $150 a corporate table (seats eight). Reservations are required and may be made by contacting the Chamber’s Director of Membership, Hayden Camp, at (334) 792- 5138 or [email protected].

  • Get Involved
    Edited by Ryan Godfrey February 2020 Get involved. SPECIAL ISSUE 2019 was a banner year for alabama libraries. let’s make it even greater in 2020! In 2019, our state lawmakers chose to fund library State Aid at more than $1.00 per capita for the first time since 2009 because they understand how imperative quality public library services are to the health of Alabama’s communities large and small. Additionally, Alabama legislators thoughtfully chose to expand the Alabama Supercomputer Authority’s (ASA) role in providing blazing fast internet throughout the state to allow 116 public libraries to also tap into this broadband network. Take the opportunity this 2020 legislative session to inform your legislators how much their support means to the vitality of your library. Last year was a banner year, but the new year brings us a host of topics to discuss, including the census, suporting workforce development, and continued funding for the ASA broadband initiative. Alabama’s libraries impact communities, and 94 percent of people agree that a library improves the quality of life of the community they serve. Alabama public libraries APLS Director Nancy C. Pack presents the Bicentennial children’s book, Alabama: My Home Sweet Home! by Charles Ghigna, as a gift to provide access to fast broadband internet, prepare students Governor Ivey after she signs a proclamation supporting libraries for today’s competitive job market, offer STEM-learning activities, assist citizens in applying for government services, and enhance small business development. Sen. Vivian Figures takes a moment to pose with APLS staff at the Alabama Library Association Legislative Day in May 2019 Rep.
