Rep. Neal Rafferty joins the Brandon and Christopher Show

State Representative Neal Rafferty (D-Birmingham recently joined the Brandon and Christopher show to discuss the 2025 Alabama Legislative Session.

Rafferty is a member of the Alabama House of Representatives.

"As a proud veteran of the United States Marine Corps and a native to Birmingham, Alabama, I fervently believe in serving our country, our state, and our local community. I feel it is my duty and my responsibility to give back when so much has been given to me," Rep. Rafferty said on his website. "That's why, after serving in the military, I used my G.I. Bill benefits to earn degrees from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB). From there I went on to serve as Program Director at BAO in Birmingham to advance the needs of our community's underserved."

"These experiences inspired me to seek public office because I began to see the impact of state laws on the daily lives of the people I was trying to help," said Rafferty. "I knew that, together, we could bring smart solutions to the problems facing our district and our state. I made a commitment to listen and to ensure that all the voices in my community were heard. In 2018, I was elected to serve the people of House District 54 in the Alabama House of Representatives. During this time, I have actively listened to the people in my district, spent time learning their unique and diverse stories, and I have made certain that their voices have been heard in the legislature. On their behalf, I have been an outspoken advocate for women's health, minority health, LGBTQ and racial equity, veterans issues, and Medicaid expansion."
