Governor Ivey and Mayor Steven Reed agree: Expanding Aniah’s Law can’t happen soon enough


The fact that one of the suspects in the mass shooting in Montgomery that killed 2 and injured 12 has already bonded out of jail is outrageous.

Unfortunately, Alabama law does not require attempted murder mass shooters to stay in jail, even though they are clearly both a flight and violence risk.

Both Governor Kay Ivey and Mayor Steven Reed think this is wrong and want everyone to vote to expand Aniah’s Law next May.
