Wall of Shame — Today: Alfa
Today on the Wall of Shame: the Alabama Farmers Federation PAC — Alfa (Montgomery) has put $5,000 into Rep. Shomari Figures' campaign account. Alabama farm-country money, funding the congressman who then voted no on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and the ag and tax provisions Alabama farmers stood to gain from.
