December 29, 2019

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and guest host Lisa Handback, a member of the State Democratic Executive Committee, take you through this week’s biggest political stories, including:

—Can House Speaker Nancy Pelosi continue dragging out impeachment?

—Will U.S. Senator Doug Jones (D-AL) be able to straddle the line on impeachment without angering his base of liberal voters in Alabama much longer?

—Is Alabama ready to legalize medical marijuana is any form?

Jackson and Handback are joined by Alabama State Senator Cam Ward (R-Alabaster) to talk about medical marijuana, prison reform and his run for Alabama’s Supreme Court.

Jackson closes the show with a “parting shot” directed at the people who think 2020 will be “better” than 2019.

Dale Jackson is a contributing writer to Yellowhammer News and hosts a talk show from 7-11 am weekdays on WVNN.
