AL HOUSE DISTRICT 15
► Suzanna Coleman, D
○ Place of residence: McCalla
○ Political races run: None
○ Civic experience: Has done service projects through Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority since 1993; volunteered with Habitat for Humanity and soup kitchens through her church, Worship Christian Center in Bessemer; provided volunteer legal services through Legal Services of Birmingham.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: Improving education by doing things such as providing more resources for technology, reducing class sizes and increasing teacher pay; increasing people’s access to health care, especially for working people. The state has left a lot of dollars on the table by not expanding Medicaid. That is an option that needs to be fully explored. It looks really grim without us doing something about it. Wants to ensure safe communities by supporting residents, law enforcement and other first responders and investing in local infrastructure; wants to help incarcerated people obtain education and job skills. If they’re going to get out, they need to be productive citizens. Mental health problems and a lack of education keep a lot of people in a cyclical pattern. Wants to encourage economic development, especially among small mom-and-pop businesses; will support legislation that protects children and senior citizens and safeguards civil liberties.
► Allen Farley, R (I)
○ Place of residence: McCalla
○ Political races run: Unsuccessfully ran for Jefferson County Board of Education in 1996.
○ Political offices held: Represented Alabama House District 15 since 2010
○ Civic experience: Jefferson County assistant sheriff 2003-10; Jefferson County deputy sheriff 1977-2003; Bessemer police officer 1973-77; chairman of auxiliary board for Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Council; former board of directors member for The Foundry; graduate of FBI National Academy.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: Wants to pursue a program called Four Maps of Alabama to identify communities in the state that need the most assistance and allocate resources to help them. One map would show the home addresses of people who were in the state prison system the past 10 years. A second map would show addresses of people receiving services from the Department of Human Resources. A third map would show addresses of people receiving Medicaid payments. A fourth map would show addresses of students assigned to failing or underperforming schools. The state would identify communities on all four maps and bring together elected officials from those cities, counties and state and federal legislative districts to brainstorm ways to ensure that children in those areas don’t end up dead, in jail, jobless or in need of public assistance 10 years from now. “We’ve got certain communities in Alabama that these kids don’t have a chance.”
AL HOUSE DISTRICT 43

○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: “We’ve just got to do something about health care. It has just gotten out of control. We have to make it more affordable for everyone.
“With education, I’m just tired of seeing Alabama 48th or 49th in everything. We can do better than that. We’ve got to find some financial sources from somewhere.”
Favors a lottery if revenues are earmarked for education: “There is so much of our money that’s driving across state lines to buy lottery tickets. We’re funding other state’s children, and we’re not funding our own. We have to quit leaving people behind. Children that are born into poverty can’t help their situation, and if they don’t get a good education, they’re going to stay in poverty and crime rates will keep going up.”
Also wants to create job training centers for both high school students and adults who have lost jobs due to declining industries or technology upgrades.
► Arnold Mooney, R (I)
○ Place of residence: Meadow Brook
○ Political races run: Alabama House District 43 election, 2014

○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: “I have fought to protect traditional family ideals by promoting the values of personal integrity, work, faith and freedom that have made our nation great and are the glue to a prosperous and free society.
“I have seen firsthand the numerous government regulations, including Obamacare, that are obstructing business growth and restricting our religious freedoms. Big government has attempted to replace personal responsibility with entitled collectivism; small business and capitalism with big business and crony capitalism; and faith, morality and community with vague pluralities and undefined truth. ‘Big government’ members of Congress think they know what is best for Alabamians. …
“Not only will I continue to work to advance our conservative principles, but I will continue to fight back against their job-crushing mandates and assaults on our freedoms. I know what it takes to stand on principle, deliver results and fight for limited government and low taxation.”
AL HOUSE DISTRICT 45
► Dickie Drake, R (I)

► Jenn Gray, D
○ Place of residence: Irondale
○ Political races run: Current first-time candidate for Alabama House District 45.
○ Political offices held: None.
○ Civic experience: Board of Trustees, Alabama Waldorf School, 2014-present; Girl Scouts Troop Leader, 2014-present.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: “My top priority is to fully fund Alabama’s First-Class Pre-K program. Alabama has the No. 1 voluntary pre-kindergarten program for 4-year-olds in the country, but it is only available to about 30 percent of eligible children because of inadequate funding. Quality pre-K programs produce a quality workforce and result in better job opportunities and a more robust economy for the entire state. Our First-Class Pre-K program gives Alabama a 7-to-1 return on our investment.
“I support the education lottery, which will provide $300 million a year to Alabama education without raising taxes.
“I’m in favor of reducing or eliminating the grocery sales tax, which is currently 10 percent in much of House District 45.”
AL HOUSE DISTRICT 46
► David Faulkner, R (I)
○ Place of residence: Mountain Brook
○ Political races run: State representative, District 46, elected 2014; Jefferson County Circuit Court Judge, 2012 (lost in the general election).
○ Political offices held: State representative, District 46, 2014-present.
○ Civic experience: Co-chair Alabama Children’s Cabinet, 2016-present; Alabama Holocaust Commission, 2015-present; chair, Alabama Consumer Lending Task Force, 2016-17; Kiwanis Club downtown Birmingham 2015-present; Leadership Birmingham 2015-16; Monday Morning Quarterback Club 1996-present; president, general counsel and vice president, Mountain Brook Chamber of Commerce, 2004-present; trustee and government affairs committee, Birmingham Business Alliance 2002-present; board member, Homewood Chamber of Commerce; Hoover Chamber of Commerce; catalyst committee, Community Foundation of Greater Birmingham; various leadership roles, St. Luke’s Church 2001-present; junior board chairman and board member, The Club; board and team member, Young Life; board member Big Time Ministries; various committees, Birmingham Bar Association; various roles, BBA Young Lawyers Division; tort, trial and insurance division, American Bar Association; national conferences team, ABA Young Lawyers Division; coach and commissioner of youth sports, basketball, baseball and football.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: “Improving public education and making our schools safer and more secure has been a top priority of mine. I am working on legislation now to make sure all Alabama students have the opportunity to take computer science before they graduate.”
“I am especially committed to expanding Alabama’s nationally recognized First Class Pre-K program. I believe voluntary pre-K instruction provides children with the tools to kick-start their learning potential and prepares them for the future.”
“Due to recent events, one of our greatest priorities is keeping our teachers and students safe from harm while on campus. We must do everything in our power to ensure that every child sent to school in the morning returns home safely in the evening.”
“I am also dedicated to job creation and ensuring our economy remains strong and growing. As a member of the House, I have supported bills that provide tax breaks to small businesses when jobs are created, voted for common sense bills that award industrial incentives once specific job targets have been met and helped create a “pro-business” and “open for business” atmosphere. I am also working on legislation to cut the tax on groceries.”
► Felicia Stewart, D
○ Place of residence: Mountain Brook
○ Political races run: None
○ Civic experience: Over the last three years, Stewart has been a Girl Scouts Patrol Leader; soccer coach; Alabama Possible volunteer; Community Foundation of Greater Birmingham volunteer; Birmingham Education Foundation volunteer; and Mountain Brook Elementary PTO events volunteer. She has also been a member of the YMBC Business Club; American Association of University Women; The Women’s Network; and Baptist Church of the Covenant.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: “Alabama has a crisis of leadership. We do not have enough elected officials in Montgomery who are ethical/transparent, who are committed to the work of solving complex problems in our state and who are focused on real priorities — not partisanship and pandering.”
“With passionate, ethical leadership, we can tackle issues in public education, health care, job growth and workforce development, clean water and other areas where we continue to languish at the bottom.”
“Being a state representative is part-time job, but I will have a full-time approach — reading, researching, listening to constituents, meeting with stakeholders and experts in the areas where we can have the most impact. I will be fully prepared to propose and support good policy for all Alabamians, every session. And, I will do so without taking any money from PACs, corporations or special interests.
I expect more for our state, and I’m willing to work for it.
AL HOUSE DISTRICT 47
► Jim Toomey, D
○ Place of residence: Vestavia Hills
○ Political races run: None
○ Political offices held: None
○ Civic experience: Former Rotary Club president; member of Shades Valley Rotary Club; United Way volunteer; previously served on board of First Light Women and Children’s Shelter in Birmingham and Presbyterian Home for Children in Talladega; volunteers at Cahaba Valley Health Care.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: Toomey believes the state should expand Medicaid, and argued the decision to not do so eight years ago when the ACA was passed harms Alabamians. Toomey also supports providing “adequate” funding to public schools and preparing students for 21st-century jobs. Like his opponent, Toomey wants to see corruption end at the state level. “Alabama ranks in the bottom five in every category that matters, but we are number one in corruption of public officials,” Toomey said. Toomey also prioritizes environmental stewardship, particularly at the Cahaba River. “We dump waste into our rivers and streams all the time. … We have a national treasure right here in this district. … I will fight to protect the Cahaba River,” he said. Lastly, Toomey opposes requiring a photo ID to vote. Speaking of voter fraud, Toomey said the state is “trying to solve a problem that does not exist.”
► David Wheeler, R
○ Place of residence: Vestavia Hills
○ Political races run: Ran unsuccessfully for Alabama House District 47 in 2014.
○ Political offices held: None
○ Civic experience: Active member of Hoover and Vestavia Hills Chambers of Commerce; former chair of Jefferson County Republican Party; treasurer of the Alabama Republican Party (resigned in December 2017 to run for this seat); Board of Trustees for University of Montevallo; past president of Birmingham Jaycees; Birmingham Chamber of Commerce; volunteer with Birmingham Football Foundation.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: Wheeler said his passion is to solve budget issues at the state level. “I want to help find a long-term solution, and I’m not sure what that is … but we need to look at budget reform, there’s still places to cut the state budget,” he said. Secondly, Wheeler said he wants to combat corruption, which has made continual headlines in Alabama. “I’m very much for making strong ethics, accountability and transparency,” Wheeler said. Wheeler said he would support banning PAC to PAC contributions. Speaking about public education, Wheeler called the “A through F” rating system for schools a “fiasco,” and said the 2013 Accountability Act provided scholarships to students already attending private schools, instead of helping students get out
AL HOUSE DISTRICT 48
► Jim Carns, R (I)
○ Place of residence: Mountain Brook
○ Political experience: Alabama House of Representatives, 2011-present; Alabama House of Representatives, 1990-2006; Jefferson County commissioner, 2006-10; co-chaired 18-member Jefferson County Legislative Delegation and elected by peers three of his four legislative terms; chairman of the House Republican Caucus as minority leader; was chairman of the Industrial Development and Economic Growth; member, Rules and Ways and Means committees; member, Association of County Commissioners of Alabama and the National Conference of Republican County Officials.
○ Civic experience: Elder, Briarwood Presbyterian Church.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: School safety, economic development and transportation top the Carns agenda.
“The largest part of our budget is education, and I have to focus on that every year … and an extra focus right now is on safety in education because that is going to be the biggest thing we’re going to take up when we go into session in 2019 and that is going be getting these resource officers into as many schools as we can as quickly as we can.”
Existing businesses are the focus of his economic development platform. “I’ve always been pushing for economic development and for Alabama to be more user-friendly to existing businesses that are here and can expand if they want to, as well as offering incentive programs to get large new businesses coming in. … Also roads and transportation are going to be a really big issue.”
► Alli Summerford, D
○ Place of residence: Mountain Brook
○ Political races run: “I am new to politics. As a small business owner (I started a web design company almost 20 years ago), I’d like to bring the creative problem-solving skills necessary to run a successful a small business to the issues facing the state.”
○ Political offices held: “None. I think we need new ideas and new voices in the Statehouse. If we continue to send back the same voices with the same ideas, we’ll continue to get the same results.”
○ Civic experience: Founding member of Mountain Brook Track Club booster group, 2017-present; member of the Women’s Committee of 100, 2012-15; volunteer maintaining the Birmingham Hospitality Network’s website, 2008-13, in addition to other local organizations; Alabama representative for an international Rotary exchange trip in France, 2007; board member of The Women’s Center (Illinois), 1999-2003, during which I helped select and negotiate a new location.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: “As a parent, small business owner and active member of my community, my vision for Alabama probably looks a lot like yours. In order for our state to have a growing economy, robust job market and strong communities, we must first have healthy and well-educated citizens. In order to move forward, we need to shift the focus and conversation from right and left to common sense solutions that work toward a better Alabama.
“Forward is an Alabama whose government functions for the benefit of its people, not for the financial gain of long-term career politicians.
“Forward is an Alabama where all our citizens have access to quality health care.
“Forward is an Alabama with an education system that arms our kids with the skills they need to succeed in tomorrow’s job market.
“Forward is an Alabama that protects its bounty of natural resources and embraces new sources of clean energy.”
AL SENATE DISTRICT 14
► Jerry McDonald, D
○ Place of residence: Helena
○ Political races run: First run for public office
○ Civic experience: Played in band at Southcrest Baptist Church; volunteered for litter pickup in Montevallo; helped with Boy Scout Troop in Helena in late 1990s; coached youth baseball in Hoover Parks and Recreation league in mid-1990s
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: “I would like to see to Medicaid expanded. We have 300,000 Alabamians who cannot afford health insurance because the state refused that federal money. This is causing tremendous problems for our rural hospitals, which are closing up.” People in these areas can’t afford primary care and end up coming to emergency rooms, which gives the rest of us higher insurance premiums.
Would love to see a state lottery to fund public education. The state needs to invest more in education to give Alabamians more skills, which will attract more forward-looking, well-paying industries. This will raise incomes in the state.
“It would be nice to redo the state tax system, but that may be more like trying to pull teeth. … We’re going to have to use a statewide lottery.” But lottery revenues should only go to public education. “I’m not in favor of using any public money for private education.”
► Cam Ward, R (I)
○ Place of residence: Alabaster
○ Political offices held: Has represented Alabama Senate District 14 since 2010; represented Alabama House District 49 2002-10.
○ Civic experience: Chairman of Alabama Senate Judiciary Committee, eight years; Autism Speaks 2017 National Legislator of the Year; chairman of Autism Task Force of Alabama (2007-10) and Alabama Autism Council (2010-present); executive director for Alabaster Industrial Development Board (2001-present); president of Alabama Law Institute (2010-present); district director for U.S. Rep. Spencer Bachus (1998-2001); assistant Alabama secretary of state, 1998; deputy attorney general in state auditors office (1996-98); political staff assistant, Alabama Republican Party 1994-96; legislative intern for Gov. Guy Hunt, 1993; Alabama Republican Party Executive Committee (1999-present); Easter Seals of America 2009 Elected Official of the Year; boards of directors for Glenwood Autism Center (2015-18); Leadership Shelby County board of directors (2001-present); Alabama League of Municipalities 2017 Hometown Hero; Business Council of Alabama Champion 2015 and 2016; 2016 Friend of Government Accountability Award from Foundation for Government Accountability; 2013 Statesman of Year from Alabama Senior Citizens Hall of Fame; National Commission on Uniform State Laws since 2005; Executive Committee for Southern Legislative Conference since 2010.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: Wants to continue criminal justice reform. Prisons are a big deal for Alabama. We’re under a federal court order, but “I’ve always felt like we needed to reform the system and provide more services for those with mental illnesses and addiction problems.”
Wants to provide more money for road and infrastructure projects for Shelby and Chilton counties, which he said have some of the worst roads in the Southeast. A lot of help is needed to address congestion on and around Interstate 65. “We’ve outgrown the infrastructure in place.”
Also wants to improve access to health care. So many people are dealing with mental illnesses and lack services and either end up either relying on the state for financial support or end up in the correctional system. “We’ve got to find a way to help these folks.”
AL SENATE DISTRICT 16
► Lindsey Deckard, D
○ Place of residence: Shelby County
○ Political races run: None.
○ Civic experience: Government subcontractor for the military for 15 years in Birmingham; biomedical researcher at UAB for 15 years; former member of PTA in Florida; former member of church board of directors in Florida.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: One of Deckard’s top issues is instituting term limits, which she said help legislators get more work done. In the states that have term limits, Deckard said, the legislatures function well.
Deckard also wants to see campaign finance reform. “The big donors in our state tend to pick our representatives for us, and then of course, those representatives work for the people with the money who put them in office, and we get left holding the bag,” she said.
Echoing other candidates, Deckard wants to end corruption in Alabama and said that would help solve a host of other problems. “... Education, prison reform, tax reform, health care … all of those things we seem to put Band-Aids on because we don’t fix the underlying problem [of corruption],” Deckard said.
Deckard said she also wants to help lower health care costs and combat health provider monopolies in the state.
Lastly, she said the state must focus on funding public schools instead of private schools.
“In the last five years, $147 million has been siphoned out of the Education Trust Fund … for private school vouchers. … We all voted for public school funding, not private school funding,” she said.
► Jabo Waggoner, R (I)
○ Place of residence: Vestavia Hills
○ Political races run: Elected to Alabama House of Representatives seat, 1966, 1974, 1978 and 1982; unsuccessful for U.S. House District 6, 1984; elected to Alabama Senate District 16, from 1990-2014.
○ Political offices held: Alabama House District 51 Representative, 1966–83; Alabama Senate District 16 Senator, 1990–present.
○ Civic experience: Member of Homewood Church of Christ; serves on the following boards: Executive Committee of Birmingham Business Alliance, Faulkner University Board of Trustees, Greater Birmingham Convention and Visitors Bureau, and the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame; member of Hoover, Homewood, Shelby County and Vestavia Hills Chambers of Commerce; 50-year member of Civitan International; member of Masons and Shriners organizations; member of the Monday Morning Quarterback Club.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: Waggoner said he is “pro-business,” and has worked to help businesses, passing bills on their behalf. Waggoner praised the schools in his area and said he wants to continue improving education by providing more funding.
Infrastructure is a high priority for Waggoner, as well. “We’ve got to deal with our infrastructure needs .... hundreds of bridges do not meet code. … We’ve got some highways that are in horrible condition,” he said.
Waggoner said “times are good in Alabama,” and praised the economy, manufacturing jobs, unemployment rate and revenue coming into the state.
U.S. HOUSE DISTRICT 6
► Danner Kline, D
○ Place of residence: Vestavia Hills
○ Political races run: None.
○ Civic experience: Board member of One Great Community, part of the Center for Clinical and Translational Science at UAB; telecom systems manager for city of Hoover; founder of “Free the Hops” movement.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: Kline is a proponent of affordable, universal health care, and said: “In the richest country that the world has ever known, it is immoral that literally some people die because they can’t get access to health care, and other people end up going bankrupt because they got sick.”
Kline also supports job creation for the 21st century, dealing with the rise of automation. “We might be 10 years away from self-driving trucks that replace truckers. … I don’t have a solution as to how to fix that, but I want to be at the table finding ways to invest in retraining and finding new ways to employ people who are losing their jobs because of forces outside their control,” Kline said.
He also favors public schools instead of prioritizing school choice. “We need to identify the problems with underachieving public schools and fix the problems, not make them worse,” he said.
► Gary Palmer, R (I)
○ Place of residence: Hoover
○ Political races run: Successfully ran in 2014 and 2016 for U.S. House District 6.
○ Political offices held: U.S. House District 6 Representative since 2014.
○ Civic experience: Served on four different state commissions on behalf of three different governors; founding member of State Policy Network; past president of Alabama Policy Institute; member of Birmingham Rotary Club since 1993; Paul Harris Fellow.
○ Main issues you would like to address if elected to office: Palmer said the U.S. needs to pay down the national debt by “cutting spending, including eliminating improper payments;” regulatory reform by “eliminating duplicative and burdensome regulations;” lower energy costs and creating jobs and economic growth by accessing America’s “vast energy resources;” replace the Affordable Care Act with a health care plan that “puts people back in charge of their health care decisions, which will truly make health care affordable and available;” and is pro-life: “protecting life in all of its forms.”
Palmer also said he believes it is necessary to have a “strong military,” and that it is important to “respect and honor our veterans.”
