How the job fits this community
Birmingham, Tuscaloosa country, and Black Belt counties on published maps. Confirm the official 2026 line — this seat has moved in court.
Federal work here is civil-rights history as living city, university towns, and rural counties that still need a human hinge to Washington.
What the job entails
Legislate. The purse. Oversight. Casework (SSA, VA, IRS, passports). District presence. The district is the employer.
What this is not
Not a senator. Not the governor. Not a campaign flyer.
