ALCAP - Alabama Citizens Action Program

Mississippi and Louisiana politicians have embraced gambling in their states and the results have been predictable and devastating. A lottery, an abundance of casinos and addicts.

The truth is access equals addiction.

Sadly and unsurprisingly, Mississippi ranks as the 4th highest for gambling addiction and Louisiana is close behind at 5th highest. Alabama, is far lower at 39th. We should learn from our neighbors and say NO to expanding access to gambling in Alabama!

Week 13 of the Alabama legislative session is in the books, and a lot is happening at the Statehouse that affects your family, your church, and your community.

Stay informed on the bills that matter most to people of faith by reading this week's full session update.

Greg Davis was honored to preach at Mt. Zion Free Will Baptist Church in Pell City. Thanks to Dr. Michael Barber and this vibrant congregation for their very generous support of ALCAP's mission.

On Tuesday, the Alabama Senate passed a very important bill for the future of Alabama. SB 99 would require Alabama public schools to post the Ten Commandments with a historical explanation in certain middle and high school classrooms and common areas. Schools would do this with donated funds.

The bill is currently in the House Education Policy committee, and we are hopeful it will make it out of committee and to the House floor for a final vote!

Always great to have you with us Mr. Secretary.

I enjoyed attending this week’s ALCAP prayer breakfast in Montgomery and visiting with Dr. Eric Hankins, Sr. Pastor at Fairhope Baptist Church.
