TUSCALOOSA, AL (WBRC) -
U.S. Senator Richard Shelby took the stage on Tuesday morning during a breakfast organized by the Chamber of Commerce of West Alabama. Shelby talked about the legislative agenda for the second session of Congress.
Questions from the audience ranged from federal regulations hindering job growth locally and a growing concern about rising gas prices, but they are not the two biggest issues Senator Shelby has as he criss crosses the state this week.
"Jobs. ‘What's the condition of the economy? When is the economy going to pick up?' That is a big concern of everybody. Secondly, but more important for the whole country, is the debt of the country," said Shelby.
