    I feel for the people of Huntsville. It really sounds like they got fucked because their last name. But ultimately, you won’t attract talent from other places in the US if you tell them they’re going to be working in Alabama. This is just the consequence of their politicians and the folks to voted for them.

      Huntsville voted for Tuberville. They did this to themselves.

          Alabama is also trying to ignore the supreme court to preserve their racist voting systems.
