Glad Rep. @RashidaTlaib brought this up today. Y’all heard that right? Alabama diverted $400m in Covid $ to fund the construction of three mega-prisons. It’s unconscionable that when our state had the opportunity to invest in public health, they went with mass incarceration.
@randallwoodfin @holly_season @RashidaTlaib THIS. IS. HORRID
@randallwoodfin @progpsychprof @RashidaTlaib The irony is, and no one went to jail for such dereliction of duty.
@randallwoodfin @RashidaTlaib Damage control. We want more action from the progressives.
@randallwoodfin @karolcummins @RashidaTlaib Hell, I live in Mississippi and remember reading about this back in 2018. That money could have went towards helping this community in Lowndes County Alabama al.com/news/2018/04/u…
@randallwoodfin @errollouis @RashidaTlaib For the record, that's roughly enough money to build about 4 million #CorsiRosenthalBox air filters, or about one for every 12 students in the entire country!
@randallwoodfin @IlhanMN @RashidaTlaib Always liked Alabama. Good job Alabama!
@randallwoodfin @MalcolmNance @RashidaTlaib I did not look it up, but Republican state most likely. 🤡
@randallwoodfin @RashidaTlaib The question is what's going to be done about it?
