We deserve elected officials who will represent ALL their constituents, not a privileged few.

“Democracy cannot survive too much ignorance… I don’t worry about our losing Republican government in the United States because I’m afraid of a foreign invasion. I don’t worry about it because I think there is going to be a coup by the military as has happened in some other places. What I worry about is that when problems are not addressed, people will not know who is responsible … That is the way democracy dies. And if something is not done to improve the level of civic knowledge, that is what you should worry about at night.”
— David Souter, Former U.S. Supreme Court Justice
With deep regret we share the news of the passing of our board member Diane Young today. She was an inspiration to us and our hearts are broken. Our thoughts are with her family.
Is the Retirement System of Alabama failing financially?
Or is that argument just a smokescreen generated by those who would like to have access to the billions of dollars RSA manages, for personal gain? And who’s behind those efforts?
This critical issue will be at the forefront of the upcoming 2017 legislative session. Come arm yourself with facts so you can share the truth with friends & family, and especially your legislator. Make sure your voice is heard!
Geoff Statum and David Harer, firefighters whose retirement is invested with RSA, are activists protecting these retirement funds for millions of Alabamians. These gentlemen will present the facts and lead the discussion. Background information here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/350375204981651/

In addition, the latest activities of Forward Alabama will briefly reviewed, and you’ll get to see the first public showings of 2 hard-hitting public service ‘commercials’ FA has produced and will ‘air’ before the election. Here are previews of both ‘spots’: https://youtu.be/bA92Fp9laeo ; https://youtu.be/kB-blSeYXpE
We look forward to seeing you on Sunday afternoon, Oct. 2nd!
