It's true we need new facilities and the Prison Transformation Act provides four new prisons. @charlesjdean story: https://t.co/Jsbs9oDbT5 — PolitiTweet.org

I'm thankful that there are no major injuries from the #Holman riot. Our DOC team did a good job getting the prison under control. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

These riots & other issues in the prison system will continue if the problem isn't addressed. I have a plan & encourage the Leg. to pass it. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

We have had two incidents just this week at our prison facilities. Prisons are overcrowded & poor design makes them a major safety concern. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

The situation at #Holman is under control, but is another reminder that we must address the issues that plague our prison system. — PolitiTweet.org

Rain won't spoil a great night for @AlabamaBSB. My first visit to the all new Joe w/ my son Luke. Great place! https://t.co/dD2i0Ua2RA — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

We must pass this bill to ensure safety standards are met and we permanently close the doors on inadequate and outdated prison facilities. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

The Prison Transformation Act would create prisons that are designed for better monitoring and control of inmates. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

I am pushing to build new modern prisons to increase safety for officers & inmates. @WBRCnews story: https://t.co/OcuIvfzMEm — PolitiTweet.org

Enjoyed meeting you @emdtask! Strong leaders like you are the reason for AL's great future. Keep up the good work! https://t.co/6zdbtzPkIB — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

We must address the needs of our prison system. Our plan is fiscally responsible and will make AL a model in the nation in how DOC operates. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

We must adequately fund Medicaid. We've made progress in the way Medicaid operates. A Medicaid budget that is cut &100 M is unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

My Great State Plan 2019 plan has a focus on rural areas of AL. Essential to growth in our state is access to technology for everyone. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

We know pre-k works. We have seen the statistics, but more importantly, we have seen the results in the lives of our students. #preKforAL — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

Children who attend Pre-K are more likely to read at grade level quicker, math scores are higher & they're less likely to need special ed. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

Education is important in our state. Programs in place must prepare students for success. One great example is AL's Pre-K Program. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

AL has made significant gains in the last 50 years, & I hope by the time we celebrate AL's 200th birthday, we will truly be a Great State. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

Job creation will always be my top priority, because jobs provide the foundation that will change our state. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

@Hyundai is growing in the River Region. They now employ about 3,000 people. A job changes a person's life and transforms a community. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

Economic development is important. @Hyundai Pres Kim told me today the Santa Fe will begin production June 22. https://t.co/fMFCXcOH0L — PolitiTweet.org

Chambers of Commerce like the @MGMChamber is critical to helping our communities thrive and push our state forward. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

I look forward to addressing the @MGMChamber at the Alabama Update breakfast this morning. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

It's important for you to buy fresh and buy local from Alabama's great fishermen & farmers. https://t.co/y43Vh3bYys — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

It's great to be here at the Seafood Bash with great, fresh catch from Alabama's Gulf Coast. https://t.co/5t9ZnSJFVX — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to @BCAToday and William Canary for the kind words. We look forward to Nichelle joining the team! https://t.co/zp6McpXofD — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

My goal is to make Alabama stronger, and minorities and women are an important component of my Great State 2019 Plan. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

Today changes that course, and brings a new found perspective on addressing minority and women issues. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

It has been a while since the Alabama Governor’s Office has devoted a position solely to minority and women’s issues. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Robert Bentley @GovRBentley

I'm appointing Nichelle Nix, who has served in several capacities in the public & private sectors, as Director of Minority Affairs. — PolitiTweet.org
