Elections

Economy
APR spoke with two baristas about their experiences at the Huntsville Starbucks location and why they want to unionize.
Legislature
HB489 would permit high school athletes to profit from NIL deals under certain guidelines.
Public safety
With a rate of 213.6 shooting incidents per 100,000 residents, Alabama ranks fifth in gun violence per capita.
Elections
Residency doubts are no longer whispers — Tuberville’s ambitions now hang on his willingness, or refusal, to prove he's qualified to run for governor.
Legislature
The growing Pine Level community voted to incorporate in September 2023 and the town has already expanded since then.

Legislature
SB330 is an example of government overreach. It consolidates power over one of Birmingham's most important utilities.
Opinion
Too many people have become discouraged because they have been repeatedly ignored by those they elected.
Opinion
Every single day, roughly 385 U.S. workers die from work-related injuries and illnesses.
