Just emailed Alabama Chamber of Congress.

Told them we had visited their state before, but would not revisit if Moore is elected after the multiple reports of "relationships"---some criminal---with teenaged girls when he was in his thirties. On top of this, several of their officials see nothing wrong with a thirty two year old man undressing and groping a 14 year old girl while "guiding her hand" to his erect penis.

We will never rent a motel, buy gas or stop for lunch in Alabama. Just don't care to do business with people who think a religious pervert belongs in the Senate.

If common decency does not influence and govern their political choices, maybe the loss of tourist dollars will.

No travel to or buying products from Alabama.
If they elect this guy then they are foisting him on the rest of the country too.
We are the laughing stock of the world, thanks to republicans.

...if one is driving from Florida to New Orleans, one can easily drive through Alabama (only about 60 miles) without spending a penny. Hit 'em where it hurts, their wallets.
