Mike Rogers, U.S. Congressman representing Alabama’s 3rd district since 2003, recently posted a series of statements on his social media account addressing local infrastructure and national history.

Before his congressional service, he was a member of the Alabama House of Representatives from 1994 to 2002 and previously served on the Calhoun County Commission between 1987 and 1990. Born in Hammond, Indiana in 1958 and currently residing in Weaver, Rogers holds a BA from Jacksonville State University (1981) and a JD from Birmingham School of Law (1991).
