As an Alabamian, you pay the fifth-highest combined state and local sales tax rate in the nation—higher than in blue states like California and New York. And that’s on top of income taxes, property taxes, and the fuel tax.
One in five Alabama children—over 200,000—live in poverty.
Despite paying your state legislators $66,659 per year plus per diem and benefits—roughly the same as the average Alabama household income—they only work for you part-time.
Fifteen states, including California, have term limits for State Legislators. Alabama does not.
Despite recent improvements, Alabama’s education system still ranks near the bottom nationally.
