Micah Messer announces candidacy for District 38 Alabama House seat
SMITHS STATION, Ala. () — A small business owner and law enforcement officer has announced his candidacy for the District 38 seat in the Alabama House of Representatives.
Micah Messer, a University of South Alabama grad and U.S. Army veteran, says he is running on a platform of transparency, accountability and common-sense governance.
'District 38 is my home, and I want it to continue to be a wonderful place to live, work, and raisea family.' Messer said. 'The people of this district deserve a representative who reflects theirvalues and work ethic—from farmers and industrial workers to firefighters and teachers.'
Messer's campaign priorities include election integrity, lowering taxes, stopping government waste and fighting crime by ensuring law enforcement has the training and resources it needs. He also strongly opposes the expansion of casino interests into District 38 and stands firmly for family values.

District 38 was redistricted on November 9, 2022. The current map can be found here: Alabama House of Representatives District 38 Map
