National Legislative Conference in Washington DC

Each year ABC members present  Eagle Award trophies to Congressmen and Senators from around the country who have at least an 80% voting record in support of ABC key issues.  These presentations are made during our annual National Legislative Conference in Washington DC.  Micah Bullard, with Turner Universal , and Lorraine Lee, North Alabama Chapter President, are shown making the presentation to Congressman Robert Aderholt.  We applaud the Congressman for his conservative, level headed leadership in DC.
