GREENE COUNTY DEMOCRAT — “My platform includes more funding for education, adopting a lottery for education and other measures to raise teacher salaries and provide teacher assistants in every classroom to give more personal attention to students,” said Yolanda Flowers, the first Black candidate of a major party for Governor of Alabama. “I support better health care including the expansion of Medicaid, which Governor Ivey has failed to act on in seven years. I believe in a woman’s right to choose and better reproductive care in the state. I am for reforming the criminal justice system that has hurt too many young Black people. I want to end voter suppression and increase the chance to vote for all people in Alabama, especially Black people who have been hurt in the past. Overall, I want to make Alabama a better place for all the people who live here.”
