Senators Aim to Stop the Scroll with New Legislation

In a move timed with Mental Health Awareness Month, Senators Katie Britt and John Fetterman are back with the "Stop the Scroll Act," hoping to shield Americans from social media's darker side.

Warning Labels Incoming?

Remember those Surgeon General warnings on cigarette packs? The idea here is similar. This bill aims to slap warning labels onto social media platforms, highlighting the potential mental health pitfalls of endless scrolling.

Britt's Take: Knowledge is Power

Senator Britt emphasizes that this isn't just about scaring people. It's about arming them with knowledge and providing resources. "This simple solution," she says, "will help parents and kids thrive." The goal is to empower users to address any mental health challenges arising from social media use.

Fetterman's Fatherly Concerns

Senator Fetterman, a father of three, is passionate about this issue. He sees the impact firsthand: "Addiction, anxiety, depression, and suicide rates are on the rise, and it’s directly linked to these platforms." He believes it's time for our laws to catch up.

How Would It Work?

The Surgeon General would craft the warning label, and the FTC would bring it to life. Imagine logging into your favorite app and being greeted by a pop-up box warning you about potential mental health risks. You'd have to acknowledge the warning before diving in. And the best part? It would point you to helpful resources if you're struggling.

Redistricting Rumble Continues

Alabama's Attorney General Steve Marshall thinks a Supreme Court decision in Louisiana could throw a wrench in Alabama's never-ending redistricting saga. Buckle up, folks, this one's gonna be a long ride.

Gator Gone

A 10-foot gator that got a little too close for comfort to a young girl in Huntsville was put down. Naturally, the gator activists came out swinging, defending the prehistoric chomper like it was their own kin.

ICE Encounter in Foley

A construction worker's claiming ICE wrongly snagged him during an immigration raid in Foley. The Trump crew says he was resisting arrest, but, you know, the usual suspects are screaming about how we gotta let everyone go because accountability is apparently a dirty word these days.

Trump's Memorial Day Message

President Trump's Memorial Day shout-out included calling his opponents "scum." Predictable, right? Cue the outrage and pearl-clutching. Business as usual, folks.

Foley Mayor Announces Re-Election Bid!

Mayor Ralph Hellmich, a Foley native, is throwing his hat in the ring for another term! He made the announcement late last week, looking to continue his leadership of the city.

From Council to Mayor

Hellmich isn't new to the game. He served on Foley's city council starting in 2004, before becoming mayor in 2020. Before his time in city government, he spent almost four decades with the State of Alabama Oil and Gas Board.

Making a Difference

"I’m excited to officially announce that I’m running for re-election," Hellmich said on Facebook. He highlighted progress made over the past five years, including upgraded intersections, improved public safety, school investments, and park expansions.

"Your Mayor. Your Voice."

Despite Foley's growth, Hellmich believes there's more to do. His campaign message, "Your Mayor. Your Voice.," emphasizes his commitment to being accessible and responsive, always putting Foley residents first. He aims to keep Foley safe, thriving, and welcoming, preserving its uniqueness while planning for the future.

Focusing on Key Areas

Hellmich's campaign focuses on Infrastructure, Public Safety, Education, and Quality of Life. Under his leadership, Foley has already upgraded intersections and boosted pedestrian safety, not to mention investing in modern fire equipment and police technology.

Campaign Kickoff!

The campaign officially launches June 5th at The Hotel Magnolia, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Mark your calendars!

Election Day

Election Day is August 26 at the Foley Civic Center. Don't forget to vote!

Decatur Mayoral Race Heats Up!

Longtime Decatur City Councilman Billy Jackson has thrown his hat in the ring for mayor! Get ready, Decatur, because the race to lead our city is officially ON!

Jackson's Ready for the Top Spot

Jackson, representing District 1 since way back in '96, is the council's seasoned vet. This Austin High and Alabama A&M grad is a Decatur lifer. He says his years on the council have given him the inside scoop on what makes Decatur tick – and what needs a little (or a lot!) of work.

Priorities and Promises

So, what's Jackson's plan? He's talking about fixing our infrastructure, tackling homelessness, expanding mental health resources, and boosting the local economy. He's also promising more transparency and accountability in City Hall, saying he'll start by setting clear expectations with department heads.

Why Now?

Jackson told WHNT News 19 he's been thinking about a mayoral run for a while, but recent events pushed him to go for it. He's concerned about what he sees as a leadership void and a lack of openness, leading to a disconnect with us, the community.

The Field is Crowded!

Jackson's announcement follows Mayor Tab Bowling's decision not to seek re-election. But Jackson's not alone! Planning Commission Chairman Kent Lawrence, Personnel Board Member Suzie Wiley, and former City Councilman Butch Matthews are also vying for the top spot. Plus, local businessman Justin Weil just bowed out and endorsed Jackson, citing their shared vision for Decatur.

Mark Your Calendars!

Decatur voters, get ready to head to the polls on Tuesday, August 26, 2025, to choose our next mayor! It's gonna be a wild ride!

Tuberville to Toss Hat in Guv's Ring?

Ainsworth Out of the Running?

Remember all that buzz about Lt. Governor Will Ainsworth potentially gunning for the top spot or Tuberville's Senate seat? Well, pump the brakes! Ainsworth has officially nixed any Senate dreams and ruled out a run for governor. So, who's next in line?

Marshall Mulling a Senate Run?

Enter Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall! He recently hinted that his future is tied to Tuberville's decision. On Alabama Public Television’s "Capitol Journal," Marshall stated he wouldn't challenge Tuberville for Senate. But if Coach T throws his hat in the gubernatorial ring? That's when the fun begins!

AG Experience a Senate Launchpad?

Marshall feels his time as Attorney General has prepped him to represent Alabamians in D.C., highlighting the many cases and issues that have overlapped with Washington matters. He’s been "pretty aggressive in asserting Alabama’s interest," he claims.

Waiting on the Dominoes

So, what's Marshall's next move? He's playing it cool, saying he'll decide after Tuberville makes his announcement. "There’s an interest there," he confessed, "but we’ll wait and see what Coach Tuberville does, and then be prepared to answer that question fully as the dominoes fall."
