Alabama Governor Brings Demand Over Extra Session
Montgomery May 22 Special Governor Brandon will not call an extra session to fund highway work unless a majority of legislators agrees to only consider his recommendations. Representative Sollie argues the governor cannot dictate legislation and cites constitutional rules requiring a two thirds vote for matters outside his proclamation. Sollie urges the governor to state his position on the $75 million bond issue to avoid public misunderstanding.
