MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - The honeymoon for Alabama's two new
Democratic congressmen didn't last long.
Two leaders of the Alabama Democratic Party and the Alabama
Education Association -- Joe Reed and Paul Hubbert -- are unhappy
about Parker Griffith and Bobby Bright voting with Republicans on
the economic stimulus package.
Reed says he's also troubled that they both voted against the
Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act.
Reed wrote letters to both congressman, which he made public.
Hubbert published a column in AEA's newsletter.
State Democratic Party Chairman Joe Turnham says there is
concern among some Democrats about the votes, but party members
should remember that both congressman represent districts that are
closely divided politically.
