NOT scaring us again Bentley. Voted no the first time voting no this time.

Also vote NO on the Forever Wild amendment. The state of the Alabama is so bad we're having to take money out of the trust fund, we don't need to be using money to purchase more land to be restricted FOREVER. There is already thousands of acres in the Forever Wild program, no need to buy more.

FOR the Forever Wild amendment. One of the things Alabama does right.

another yes vote for the Forever Wild amendment.....i agree something that alabama has done right......

However, notice all these amendments are encouraging spending from the oil windfall trust fund, like the September referendum, with no plan nor revenue stream to replace it. How many times can one fund be raided........answer still pending!?
