 With Vivity lenses, you could minimize the need for those pesky reading glasses. And now, if you live in the Shoals area, you won’t have to travel to have the procedure performed.

He does not want to be an effective emissary for his people. He is proud of the title of being the least effective congressman in Alabama history. He believes his role is to be the most conservative person in the halls of the Capitol. Continue reading A MO BROOKS STORY |
