Please stay safe, folks.

I loved being with my friend Congresswoman Terri Sewell at Women for Alabama this week! Terri and I made a great team when we served together in Congress, and I know we’ll make an even better team when she’s reelected to Congress and I’m elected Governor. Let’s get it done on November 3rd.

Alabamians don’t live in a pretend world. We are living in the Trump/Tuberville reality of a rush to build data centers, high gas prices, high grocery prices and high electricity prices. Alabamians deserve better.

Act, which made $255 million in annual funding permanent for these schools and other minority-serving institutions. As governor, I'll bring that same commitment to Alabama's HBCUs and all Alabama colleges and universities.

Trump’s not coming to Mobile for Tommy. That’s just an afterthought. Pretty clear that he’s in Mobile to campaign for another personal vanity project to have the new Mobile Bay Bridge that Tuberville voted against, named after him. At least Trump didn’t divert bridge funds for self promo TV ads.

What a thrill it was to be back with my old friend @jasonisbell @jasonisbell at our big rally in Mobile last week. Jason never lets an audience, or me, down with this music and his words. Thank you for always being there for us!

I couldn’t be in Brewton and miss the Battle of Highway 31! Thank you to both T.R.Miller and Hillcrest High School for letting us join in on the rivalry and to the band for getting me one step closer to doing the Dougie!

A sitting president doesn’t go to a safe state a month before an election. Alabama is in play, folks.

@dougjones.bsky.socialSep 27, 2026, 2:39 PM

Folks are excited, they’re ready for change, and when we win this race, we’re going to get to work!

This week, we kicked off our On the Road to Change Tour across Alabama. Starting in Mobile, we made our way through Florala, Brewton, Thomasville, and Gainesville. And I’ll tell you, we are feeling the momentum.

It was at times moving, at times poignant, at times funny, but at all times worthy of the inspiration and admiration for Atticus Finch and “To Kill a Mockingbird.”

What an honor it was to introduce the world premier of “Growing Up with Atticus” to kick off the centennial season of The Virginia Samford Theater, and to be able to visit with the amazing stars Cecilia Peck, daughter of the great Gregory Peck, and Birmingham’s own Mary Badham, aka “Scout.”

Doug Jones stands between Cecilia Peck and Mary Badham.

$6 diesel is crushing Alabama farmers, truckers and shrimpers. And when it costs more for them to do their jobs, we all pay more. Tommy Tuberville? He takes a knee.

National Baptist Convention and the Alabama State Missionary Baptist Convention. We are grateful to Pastor Anderson and the First Baptist Church of Ensley family for their warm welcome and continued commitment to faith and community.

the “Sheriff Without a Gun” because of his commitment to nonviolence. Today, that legacy of service continues under Reverend Dr. Tyree A. Anderson, the church’s 15th pastor. Dr. Anderson brings more than 20 years of ministry and pastoral experience and also serves in leadership roles within the

First Baptist Church of Ensley has a rich history of faith, service, and leadership. The late Reverend Dr. Thomas Earl Gilmore, Sr. served there as pastor for more than three decades. A civil rights leader, he made history as Greene County’s first African American sheriff and became widely known as

What a great day in Tuscumbia on Labor Day. Food, fun, a parade and a Bama jersey autographed by Joe Namath! Organized labor has worked so hard and for so long for the workers in Alabama, it’s time that Alabama’s government did some work for them not always against them.

Change is happening in Shelby County. During the primary, Democratic turnout increased by 260%. Louise and I enjoyed spending yesterday afternoon with the Shelby County Democrats and so many of our strong Democratic candidates.

We could use more of that spirit of unity and shared purpose today, much like what we saw today in Birmingham at 9/11 Day’s UNIITE for Good where volunteers packed more than 100,000 meals for Alabamians facing hunger.
