The Alabama Forestry Association this week announced its endorsement of Lt. Governor Will Ainsworth’s, R-Alabama, re-election bid in the 2022 cycle.

“Lt. Governor Ainsworth has done an outstanding job during his first term in office,” said AFA President Chris Isaacson. “He is committed to a limited and fiscally responsible government and has been a tireless advocate for Alabama’s forest products industry and a longtime friend of AFA. We were an early supporter in his first statewide election and are honored to stand with Will in his bid for a second term.”

A strong supporter of private property rights, Ainsworth and his family have been Alabama timberland owners for years.

Ainsworth’s first term has focused on workforce development, providing quality public education, and growing a strong military presence in the state. He also serves as chairman of the Alabama Small Business Commission, the Alabama Military Stability Commission and is national chairman of the Aerospace States Association.

“I am proud to have the support of the Alabama Forestry Association,” stated Ainsworth. “I will continue to fight for smaller government, less red tape and more jobs for hardworking Alabamians. Alabama is open for business, and our best days are ahead.”
