In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“I’ve seen firsthand how decisions from the bench affect real people. I’m running to keep protecting children, safeguarding families, and upholding the Constitution on the highest court in our state.”
“And when I get on that bench, I promise that I'm going to look out for everyone's rights, not just those who agree with me, everyone.”
“That's why the scales of justice are scales. They're balanced.”
“So to this day, IVF is still at risk in Alabama because our court decided to legislate from the bench.”
“I litigated as a divorce attorney until I took the bench in 2024. I took the bench in the juvenile court and started hearing child abuse and neglect cases and delinquency cases.”
