Disabilities Forum Draw Major Candidates

By Alabama Public Radio

Montgomery AL – Some candidates for Alabama's top political offices said Wednesday during a forum in Montgomery they were willing to push for changes that would help Alabama's special needs citizens. The forum was hosted by the Alabama Disabilities Action Coalition. The Coalition says the three biggest issues facing people with disabilities are long-term care, transportation and housing. All candidates for Governor, Attorney General and Lieutenant Governor were invited to take part in the forum. Lucy Baxley, John Tyson Junior, and Jim Folsom Junior attended the event.
