The gathering aims to foster civil, fact-based discussion across party lines. Following dinner, Senator Jones will speak, then there will be a question-and-answer session designed to provide attendees with insight into the workings of federal government and the current political climate.
Former Senator Doug Jones is the author of Bending Toward Justice: The Birmingham Church Bombing that Changed the Course of Civil Rights which recounts a key moment in our long national struggle for equality and the successful prosecution of two Ku Klux Klan members 40 years later.
A celebrated prosecutor who brought long-overdue
justice to the victims of the 16th Street
Baptist Church bombing, Doug has built his career on fighting impossible battles. In 2017, he shocked the political establishment by winning a special election to fill a U.S. Senate seat in Alabama—the first Democrat to do so in 25 years in the state. On Capitol Hill, he quickly built a reputation as a well-regarded and effective legislator, passing more than two dozen bipartisan bills into law in just three years. Pictured above are Jones, Former
