From Doug

First, let me begin by expressing how honored and humbled I am to be a member of this body and to represent the great state of Alabama. I began my career right here, fresh out of law school in 1979, working as staff counsel to Senator Howell Heflin on the Judiciary Committee.

People don't ask too much of their politicians and they don't expect us to have all of the answers--but they do expect us to work on their behalf to strengthen their communities.
