Teacher sues County BOE for race discrimination
By SIRI HEDREEN Multimedia Reporter
A former Dadeville Elementary School librarian is suing the Tallapoosa County Board of Education for racial discrimination, alleging she was demoted to
pre-Kindergarten teacher and replaced by a less-qualified white woman. Shirley Barnes, an African-American woman and 18-year library mediaspecialist at Dadeville Elementary, alleges thenassistant principal Diane
Miller “created a racially charged work environment for Plaintiff (Barnes) almost immediately after assuming office” during the 2018-2019 school year, according to court documents filed earlier this month. The civil rights lawsuit,
filed in United States District Court for the middle district of Alabama in Opelika, alleges Miller, who is white, was given day-today operational control of Dadeville Elementary by then-principal Rance Kirby and alleges Miller was
responsible for Barnes’s demotion, a transfer which the Tallapoosa County Board of Education approved. Miller has since been promoted to principal of Dadeville Elementary while See DISCRIMINATION, Page A3

According to the lawsuit, Barnes, who has a master’s degree in library science and an education specialist degree, reapplied for her own vacancy but was not hired. Instead the school system hired a white woman with one year of educational experience and no library experience nor certification. The lawsuit seeks damages for “lost prestige, emotional distress,” the unpaid work involved in becoming a pre-K teacher — including the necessary credentialing — and the destruction of personal property. On Monday, the Tallapoosa County Board of Education went into executive session for about 30 minutes during its regular board meeting to discuss the ongoing litigation.

ately there have been all kinds of businesses, organizations and individuals who have stepped up to make sure our first responders at least have a good meal. There are so many examples over recent weeks: Mortgage Pro and Big Fish Realty bringing Chick-fil-A and Chicken Salad Chick to our frontline hospital workers, Advanced Heating and Air feeding police and firefighters a free Firetruck BBQ meal, our Chambers hosting free lunches for first responders, First united Methodist Church’s new casserole ministry for hospital staff — and that’s just to name a few notable examples. Our community is doing its part to take care of the people who take care of us, and it is always so heartening to see. Especially since this past year has been such an extra burden on these responders, and the job was tireless enough without a pandemic. We have always supported our first responders here, but it feels especially heightened during our current crisis, and if anything good has come out of the pandemic it is the reminder of how important these people are in all of our lives. We want to encourage the continuation of these efforts, pandemic or not. And if you have family or friends that serve in these roles, remember to support them any way you can. Call them and encourage them. Support them on an individual level. They are doing everything they can to help us during this trying time. It’s the least we can do to give back to them.

Our
Census results revealing Mission
W
ell folks, the final census figures are in from last year’s 2020 nose count. The census is taken every 10 years to determine the lines and boundaries of congressional and legislative districts. However, the census reveals a lot more information about us as a state and nation than just how many of us there are. It paints a picture of who we are as people and what we look like. The most recent census unveils an America much different than those of us who were born in the 1950’s and are referred to as the “Baby Boomer” generation. We are one diverse country. Indeed, we are a true melting pot. The United States is now less than 60% white/ Caucasian – 57% to be exact. The black/African American population has basically remained the same at about 12% of the population. The most remarkable figure is that 20% of our population identifies as Hispanic. The Asian population has doubled over the 10 years from 3% to 6% percent. It is a new America. What do these numbers portend and what is the story for Alabama? First of all, we did an amazing job on our count. The Census Bureau
STEVE FLOWERS Columnist has remarked that Alabama was one of the five best states in America when it came to counting our people. We actually came up with 103,000 more people than what was projected. Gov. Kay Ivey’s efforts deserve some credit for this success. The most significant fact in our successful count is that we saved a congressional seat. It had been projected for the last five years that we were going to lose a congressional seat from seven to six in Congress. We will fortunately keep seven. This will make the legislature’s job much, much easier when they meet in about a month to draw the lines. After the reapportionment session, we will still probably have six Republican congressmen and one Democratic member of Congress. In fact, when the members of the legislature begin drawing the lines, they will begin with that lone Democratic seat of Congresswoman Terri Sewell. She and that district
will come first when dividing up people for two reasons. One is that Alabama is still under the eye of the Justice Department by virtue of the 1965 Voting Rights Act whereby we must have at least one majority-minority district. Because the Black Belt region of the state has lost significant population, she will have to take in a larger area. She will probably go all the way from Birmingham to Mobile. She will pick up a large chunk of Tuscaloosa and almost all of Montgomery as well as at least three to five more sparsely populated Black Belt counties on the way between Birmingham and Mobile. As projected, the Black Belt counties lost population and the growth in the state was in fast growing Republican leaning counties such as Baldwin, Shelby, Jefferson, Lee, and especially in the Huntsville / Madison / Limestone area. The second reason that Congresswoman Sewell will get deference is that she is our only Democratic congressperson. With the U.S. House of Representatives being majority Democratic, as well as the White House, Congresswoman Sewell is See CENSUS, Page A5
When the numbness wears off
F
or more than one person with whom I conversed—as well as myself—the magnitude of what happened on The Day Things Changed started to hit home about a week after the event. Up until that time, many of us were simply reeling concerning our respective emotions, but as noted in a column written just after the event, such numbness was understandable, and perhaps even needed, in many cases. However, when some of the television and print media began to show composites of the victims’ portraits (almost all of the decedents were smiling, by the way), such displays probably cause many Americans to get choked up (as a minimal reaction). The vast majority of the thousands of innocent persons who were indiscriminately slaughtered on Sept. 11 had families, as well as an untold number of friends and acquaintances, so perhaps seeing actual human faces instead of hearing impersonal statistics may have been the coldwater-in-your-face stimulus that shook millions of people out of their mentallyand-emotionally lethargic state. Other post-trauma events and gestures by the famous and not-so-famous probably “got to” a lot of observers. One person I know finally cried when she saw the simple and sweet tribute by the New York Mets—at their first game after The Day Things Changed, team members wore caps emblazoned with the initials and logos of the New York City Police and Fire Departments. Another acquaintance is a retired U.S. Navy aviator. Four days after the conflagration, he was perusing his local newspaper, and while viewing a display of victims’ portraits, discovered that the pilot of the plane that had crashed into the Pentagon had been his instructor in flight school. The aviator didn’t tell me what his reaction was, nor did I ask
WILLIE MOSELEY Columnist him about such. Personally, I tried to affect somewhat of an assertive and patriotic façade. The weekend following the carnage, I had to work at a guitar show in Pensacola, departing home on Friday, September 14. On the way to the Florida Panhandle, I stopped at a grocery and purchased a roll of paper towels and a bottle of white liquid shoe polish (the oldfashioned kind, with a fuzzy ball-on-a-stick applicator). I cleaned off the rear window of the mini-van and painted a three-word slogan on it: “DESTROY ALL TERRORISTS.” And I ended up getting dozens of positive acknowledgements from other drivers and passengers, in the form of waves, grins, and nods of approval. When I traveled on the interstate, I would intentionally set my cruise control a few miles below the posted speed limit, so most vehicles would pass mine. The most popular hand signal was, as one might expect, a thumbs-up gesture, which came from dozens of persons in more than one sociological/racial/whatever demographic category… if that happens to matter. A few minutes after I applied the slogan to the van’s rear window, the second car that passed mine when I pulled back out onto the highway was a Dodge Stratus occupied by three black guys, and the one sitting in the back seat stuck a hand with an erect thumb out his window. The same hand signal was also flashed by persons who are apparently in different economic groups…if that happens to matter, as well. Thumbs-up gestures came from came from vehicles ranging from an 18-wheeler to a dilapidated pickup truck to a Rolls Royce Corniche.
As I was leaving a Chinese restaurant, two senior citizens asked me to take their picture s they posed on either side of the rear window of the van. What’s more, as long as the slogan has been on the rear window, I’ve never received a negative signal or even a look of disapproval—no heads moving from side to side, no index fingers wagging at me, no middle fingers pointed in my direction. There were a few stares that came off as more curious than else, and that’s about it. The phrase is still on the back of the van as I write this. I consider it to be a home-made sociological experiment as much as anything else. It’s curious how many nationally-traumatic events seem to involve celebrities or persons of notoriety, even if their respective accomplishments and/or legacies are questionable. So if anyone who reads this happens to disagree with the aforementioned “shoe polish philosophy,” consider how many Americans died on Sept. 11, and compare that number to Pearl Harbor, the sinking of the Titanic, the Kennedy assassination, the Challenger explosion, the Lennon assassination (he wasn’t an American but was murdered here), the Princess Diana automobile wreck (non-Americans, didn’t happen in the U.S.), the JFK Jr. plane crash, the 1947 Texas City, Texas explosion, the destruction of the Columbia, and the Chappaquiddick incident. Yet for all of the in-motion contact such hand-lettered advocacy had generated, I’d somehow known all along than at some point in time, I too would experience a personal and emotional realization of what such savagery had wrought, and to be honest, it actually hit home the weekend after the calamity, and before the aforementioned New York Mets display of FDNY and NYPD caps.

“I take responsibility for my mistakes and should the court be inclined to grant my release, I will use the opportunity to rebuild trust with those who have lost faith in me and the entire political system.” — Former Alabama Speaker of the House Mike Hubbard
Hubbard asks to be released from prison By CLIFF WILLIAMS Staff Writer
Former Alabama Speaker of the House Mike Hubbard has asked the courts to release him from prison to allow Hubbard to maintain his FCC license and keep employees working while paying more than $205,000 in fines and restitution. Hubbard’s motion for an early release was filed with the courts Friday evening and the documents include a letter from Hubbard where he apologized for violating laws he helped create. “I realize that this situation has only further damaged the public trust placed in elected officials and as the court stated in its order, ‘harmed society as a whole,’” Hubbard stated. “I take responsibility for my mistakes and should the court be inclined to grant my release, I will use the opportunity to rebuild trust with those who have lost faith in me and the entire political system.” Hubbard was convicted by a Lee County jury on a dozen counts of violating Alabama Ethics Laws in June 2016 he helped create. Prosecutors accused Hubbard of leveraging his powerful public office to obtain clients and investments for his businesses, violating the prohibition against giving a “thing of value” to an elected official. Hubbard maintained the contracts were legitimate work and unrelated to his position as speaker of the house. Hubbard was sentenced to four years in a state prison. Six of those counts were upheld by the Alabama Supreme Court and Lee County circuit court judge Jacob Walker reduced the sentence to 28 months for the six upheld convictions. Hubbard’s recent motion includes letters of support of his release from Opelika Mayor Gary Fuller, Opelika councilmember Eddie Smith, retired Auburn United Methodist Church pastor Dr. George Mathison, Dr. Steven D. Presley, Gene Dulaney, D. Gaines Lanier and Bo Jackson. Hubbard’s motion argues other public officials have not been sentenced as harshly as he. The motion

Unfortunately, each day that passes while defendant remains incarcerated is another that the defendant is unable to successfully resolve issues plaguing his radio stations, thereby unnecessarily placing local jobs at risk and further damaging the defendant’s ability to repay his financial obligations to the state.”

FALL WEATHER WORD FIND
AUTUMN CROSSWORD
It is Sweater Weather time! Autumn, commonly referred to as Fall, is one of the four seasons that we experience here in the United States. This season is a beautiful time of the year when the hot Summer weather begins to fade into cooler, crisp days. The leaves on the trees change from green to beautiful shades of red, yellow, orange, and brown. Fun events like pumpkin carving, hayrides, corn mazes, fall festivals, and Fall sports, such as Football, are all happening in communities across the Country. Popular Fall holidays like Halloween and Thanksgiving occur in October and November. Many people enjoy baking with pumpkins that are harvested in September and October. The first day of Autumn always occurs in lateDR September, and it lasts about KIDZ three months. This year the first official day of Fall is on Wednesday, September 22, 2021. The first day of Fall is always determined by the Autumnal Equinox--the day when the Sun is directly over the Equator in the Northern Hemisphere. The farther away we are from the Sun, the cooler and shorter Apple Cider, Autumn, Cool, Equinox, Fall, the days will become. Because Autumn is the tranFall Festival, Football, Halloween, Harvest, sition to cold weather, it is also a time when many people prepare their homes for the Winter.

NOTEBOOK: Reeltown, BRHS, Horseshoe Bend compete at Block Party tournament By ANDY ANDERS Regional Spor ts Director
Elmore County High School played host to its annual “Block Party” volleyball tournament Saturday, which featured 11 teams from the surrounding error for two to three pool play games followed by a single-elimination tournament. All matches were best of three sets. Benjamin Russell, Horseshoe Bend and Reeltown were all in attendance, with Benjamin Russell being the lone team to make the quarterfinals of tournament play before falling in three sets to Wetumpka. BENJAMIN RUSSELL CAPS BUSY WEEK OF ACTION
The Wildcats’ season is heating up. So is their team. After a match against
Horseshoe Bend was rescheduled to this week, the Wildcats played no less than five matches from Monday through Friday. It won four of those games, capping a stretch in which the Wildcats won seven of their past eight games. “It was good to see them go through that, still playing hard Monday through Thursday, and then come out and they’re still playing that hard Saturday,” Benjamin Russell coach Magan Ford said. “It speaks to their commitment and then what we’ll be able to do when we get in the playoffs.” It’s been a stark turnaround for a team that started with wins in just two of its first 11 games.

Of course, it doesn’t happen overnight or because of one game, but the Tigers have now lost three straight to Big 10 teams not named Ohio

Finally healthy, Foster ready to break out for Benjamin Russell By ANDY ANDERS Regional Sports Director
It’s been a long road to the lights of Friday night for Chris Foster. Benjamin Russell football’s sophomore wide receiver has an injury catalogue longer than most peoples’ grocery lists. Two broken thumbs, two broken wrists, a pulled groin and two hip fractures. Now that the first-year pass catcher is back in the Wildcats’ stable, he’s shown to be capable of producing at a high rate, with 111 receiving yards and 34 rushing yards in two games
this season. And his traits as a player, relative football inexperience and chemistry with Benjamin Russell’s gunslinger all bode well for his future at the Alex-Citybased high school. “Yeah, it’s frustrating,” Foster said about his previous ailments. “I stretch a lot and try to be careful. Some of it you can’t control but most of them you can, like my groin and hip injuries, they came from not stretching enough. So now I stretch a lot. When I go in the weight room, I make sure to stretch. At home, before I go to sleep, all that.” Foster didn’t play for the

Wildcats as a freshman. Head coach Aubrey
Blackwell and his staff were happy he decided to play
for his sophomore year, as Foster displayed from an early stage a willingness to learn and plenty of potential at the position. “The first thing is, he’s very coachable,” wide receivers coach Trey Prestridge said. “Then the first day I got out here this summer, the first thing I noticed is that Chris is a competitor. He’s gonna compete, he brings positive energy day-in and day-out and the guys feed off of that.” A left hip fracture kept Foster out of the squad’s first three contests as its season got off to a rough start.
Benjamin Russell has been close to victory on several occasions this year, but has still yet to win a game in an 0-5 opening to 2021. One of the main bright spots during that time has been the team’s passing game. In the four games he’s played, sophomore quarterback Gabe Benton has racked up 938 yards and eight touchdowns through the air. Benton is questionable for this Friday’s game, but regardless of when he comes back, he’s excited to have the added dimension Foster See FOSTER, Page B2

Dowdell still found the end zone in the game, this time stripping an opposing kick returner in coverage and picking up the loose ball for a scoop ‘n’ score. The Tigers won 33-6. Dadeville has also blocked a punt this season, and much of it has to do with Dowdell making the types of plays listed above, McDonald said. “People are so concerned with getting downfield to cover him, they may let up on their protection, it gives an opportunity to block the punt.” Of course, Dowdell does far more than just provide momentum shifts for the Tigers. He’s one of the area’s best and most rangy defensive backs, and Dadeville will

definitely encouraged on that front. Bo Nix stayed in the pocket and delivered the ball but was very inconsistent down the field. His receivers also dropped a couple of passes that would have been first downs. The passing game was subpar and needs improvement. I was very concerned about the defensive line against the run and felt like the Auburn secondary would be a great strength coming into the season. As it turns out, I had it backwards. The Tigers
held the Nittany Lions to 94 yards on the ground and 2.8 yards per carry. Then again, State had so much success through the air, they probably regret not throwing it more. Derek Mason has some soul-searching to do this week to try and figure some things out. Akron, Alabama State and Penn State have completed 70 passes in only 89 attempts in the first three games, which is a combined completion percentage of 79%. That is stunning and wholly unacceptable.
A strong pass rush and inferior talent covered up the soft coverage the first two weeks, but that was exposed on Saturday night with no pass rush and equal talent. I wasn’t happy about some of the play calling especially in the red zone, but it’s easy for me to complain if the play doesn’t work. The good news is I think a lot of Auburn’s problems are correctable and, at the end of the day, it was just one game. The bad news is the schedule doesn’t get any easier from here on out.

It and basketball court for always gives you a backup Benjamin Russell, and their
long-time friendship has helped in both endeavors. Foster’s been a point guard for Benjamin Russell’s basketball team since his eighth grade season, when he was called up to play at the varsity level. “Our chemistry is really good, it’s good for basketball too,” Foster said. “We’ve known each other since we
were 2 or 3 years old.” Foster finally found his chance at a football debut in Week 4 at Helena. Benton went down with an ankle injury against the Huskies, and with the Wildcats’ backup quarterback also down, starting defensive back and third-string QB Ty Williams was the only option to get Foster the ball through the air. He caught six passes for 88 yards and showed some versatility by carrying the ball twice, although he didn’t pick up any yardage on the ground. “I was glad to be back out there, finally, with my brothers,” Foster said. “We didn’t come out victorious, but I had fun, first varsity game.” Foster followed that up with three receptions for 24 yards and three carries for 31 yards last Friday at Wetumpka. He even rotated in at quarterback and completed a five-yard pass. He’ll see frequent usage both in the slot and at running back for the Wildcats as the season progresses. “As of right now, with Gabe being out, he’s our utility guy,” Prestridge said. “We’ve got him everywhere. He works at quarterback, he works in the slot, he works at the running back.” Now that his feet are back under him, Foster stated his focus for the remaining season will be improving his intangibles at the position and avoiding further injury. “Route running, catching the ball, running routes at full speed, anything to help the team,” Foster said. The best news for Benjamin Russell is that, like all of its top receivers, Foster will be back next season. Where he differs from the team’s two leading wideouts in terms of yardage, juniors Corri Milliner and La’Bronski McKinney, is that he’ll have an additional year beyond the 2022 season as a current sophomore. “The sky is the limit for Chris,” Prestridge said. “I hope that he can stay healthy. I know he’s a basketball guy, and I hope to get him in the weight room this next summer and this offseason. We can get him ready to stay healthy a whole season so we can watch him compete all year.” Foster and the Wildcats get a chance to grab their first win of the season at Smiths Station Friday.

line him up over the top at free safety or over one of the opposing team’s best wide receivers at cornerback depending on the situation. “He gives us a guy back there who’s had a lot of interceptions, and when he makes a mistake he learns from it,” McDonald said. “He got beat a couple times, he jumped the wrong guy against Montgomery Catholic. But he learned from it. And that’s the thing, you want a kid who can learn when he does make a mistake.” On offense he’s a brilliant change of pace from the Tigers’ typical downhill running style, McDonald added. Dowdell said he’d like to play football at the next level once his time at Dadeville is over but hasn’t been in contact with any schools thus far. For now, the Tigers can look forward to another year-and-a-half of masterclass performances

TOURNAMENT Continued from B1
Perhaps the biggest sign of growth came in the team’s quarterfinal match against Wetumpka. The Indians and Wildcats met earlier this season and Wetumpka came out on top 3-1, a match which Wetumpka controlled much of the way. When the teams met Saturday, it was a battle. There were less than 50 spectators but that fact seemed unfathomable based on how loud the gym was. Benjamin Russell took the first set 25-20. The second set was tied at more than 10 points, with the lead and momentum constantly swinging between the two sides. Wetumpka eventually nudged out to a 25-22 win before capturing the third set 15-10 to win the match, but to be neck-and-neck with the Indians throughout marked a significant improvement for the Wildcats. “They’ve done everything I’ve asked them to,” Ford said. “They’re growing, and we understood from the beginning of August that our goal was October. Not August. Not September. And we’ve consistently gotten better every single game.” Middle blocker Laura Thames went down with a rolled ankle earlier in the tournament and was replaced by Tamya Harris, who made her presence felt with a string of blocks at the net. “Their number 10 gave us a lot of trouble last time we played them,” Ford said. “So for Tamya, who’s been the backup to Laura, Laura’s a senior, for her to come in and to do such a good job against such a good hitter — she took her opportunity and made the most of it.” Prior to taking on the Indians, the Wildcats lost a three-set battle with Elmore County before rolling over Billingsley in straight sets. AS SERVE AND SERVE RECEIVE GOES, SO GOES HORSESHOE BEND
When Horseshoe Bend was on its game Saturday, it was collecting aces and creating successful attacks of opposing serves. Such was the case against Reeltown. The Generals beat the Rebels in straight sets. Cara Johnson picked up back-to-back aces to seal a 27-25 victory in the first set after Reeltown

Alex City’s JaMichael Greer gaining national recognition for baseball By ANDY ANDERS Regional Sports Director
He may only be in middle school, but JaMichael Greer is already gaining national recognition for his talents on the baseball diamond. After an outstanding year with the O Dawgs, a 12U travel team in Top Gun baseball based out of Opelika, the Alex City native was selected as an AllAmerican and represented the southern region of Top Gun baseball at its All-American games. “It meant a lot. My family was proud of me,” Greer said. Making the All-American game was a process for Greer. The O Dawgs competed in nearby Top Gun tournaments, where player stats were recorded to identify top players. Those that separated themselves at these tournaments received an invite to the regional All-Star game. From there, the 24 best players at the regional All-Star game are divided into two teams to go to the Top Gun AllAmerican game. Greer landed one of those spots, the only O Dawgs player to do so. He posted the top batting average at the tournament. Being that he still hasn’t reached high school, Greer is still sampling different sports to see where his interests lie. Basketball is his first love. “I used to like basketball more than baseball,” Greer said. “But after all the
tournaments and stuff, I think I like baseball more.” Greer also plays youth football. Back to baseball, the young phenom said his favorite part of the game is pitching. He enjoys striking opposing hitters out. “It’s fun just knowing you can get up there and throw it as hard as you can,” Greer said. His peak on-field accomplishment was a no-hitter he tossed for the O Dawgs at The Ripken Experience tournament in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee a few months ago, relying on his fastball, changeup and the occasional curveball to bring home a landmark baseball accomplishment in any youngster’s career. That outing combined with his consistent hitting throughout the tournament is likely what got him selected to the Top Gun regional All-Star game, Greer said. “It was unbelievable, it felt really good,” Greer said about the no-hitter. When not pitching, Greer manned any number of positions for the O Dawgs both infield and outfield, but most often he was at shortstop or third base. After a couple years at Alex City Middle School, high school sports will be the next step for Greer. If his Top Gun honors are any indication, he could be an impactful athlete for Benjamin Russell down the road.

Gov. Kay Ivey reallocates $12.3 Million in CARES Act funds for COVID-19 nursing shortage STAFF REPORT TPI Staff
Gov. Kay Ivey on Friday, Sept. 3, reallocated $12.3 million of the Coronavirus Relief Fund to secure qualified, out-of-state, travel nurses to work in Alabama hospitals in a temporary capacity. “I’m pleased to see more folks getting vaccinated, but we are still in the thick of COVID-19 and our hospitals are overwhelmed,” Ivey said. “In consideration of the current surge of the virus and the strain on our dedicated healthcare professionals, I have directed the $12.3 million of CARES Act funding be reallocated to recruit more trained staff to our nursing corps. Until our vaccination rates rise and our COVID-19 hospitalization rates fall, we will need the extra support these nurses provide.” In consultation with the Alabama Department of Public Health (ADPH), State Health Officer Dr. Scott Harris designated the nursing shortage Alabama’s most urgent need. ADPH will work with the Alabama Hospital Association to develop a process to recruit these travel nurses. “ADPH would like to express its gratitude to Governor Ivey and State Finance Director Poole for providing this support to Alabama hospitals, which are seeing unprecedented
numbers of patients infected with Covid19,” Harris said. “This funding comes at a crucial time and will make a tremendous difference in increasing the nursing workforce in our state.” The $12.3 million reallocation is from CARES Act funds that were previously obligated but not reimbursed among the various approved expenditures. The Alabama Legislative Leadership, House Speaker Mac McCutcheon and Senate President Pro Tempore Greg Reed, also support Alabama hospitals thru the reallocation of CARES Act funding. “The on-going coronavirus pandemic has presented struggles for many across the state, but perhaps no group has faced as many challenges or stood taller than the frontline medical workers in hospitals, clinics, and physicians’ offices across the state,” McCutcheon said. “Our nurses are forced to set aside concerns and worries about their own health as they tend to the patients who are fighting a highlycontagious virus that has already taken so many from us. It seems altogether fitting that Alabama is devoting a portion of its CARES Act dollars to a group that has demonstrated it cares the most - the nurses who provide aid to the sick and injured in the most remote rural communities and the largest urban centers alike.”
“The coronavirus pandemic has created an unprecedented need for quality nurses at hospitals across our state. Alabama’s nurses, working on the front lines to save lives and care for those struggling with this virus, have been nothing short of heroic throughout this pandemic,” Reed said. “I have heard from leaders across our state – especially from those in harder hit areas – that this is a critical, muchneeded resource. I am glad that these relief dollars will go towards alleviating some of the stress put on our hospital system and provide hospitalized Alabamians with the care they need.” Alabama received approximately $1.9 billion of federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) funding to respond to and mitigate COVID19. Alabama Act 2020199 designated: -$300 million to reimburse state agencies for expenses directly related to the coronavirus outbreak. -$250 million to reimburse counties and cities for coronavirus expenses. -$250 million to deliver health care and related services to residents. -$300 to support citizens, businesses, and non-profit and faithbased organizations impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. -$53 million for remote work and public access expenses incurred by state
