In 2014 Barry Moore faced four felony counts for what he told a grand jury about carrying a threat from Alabama's House Speaker. A jury acquitted him. The Speaker went to prison. Moore turned the whole thing into a campaign ad.
Food, rent, electricity, healthcare - in America we should be able to afford these basic necessities of life without going bankrupt.
Barry Moore has supported the current administration's tariffs and other policies which have led to:
Half of all Americans struggling to afford groceries
47% struggling to afford their utility bills
47% struggling to afford healthcare
48% struggling to afford housing
1 in 4 Americans saying they have skipped a medical checkup due to affordability
23% skipping a prescription dose
Gas prices skyrocketing
Alabama exported $14 billion in goods and services to Europe and China last year, and its auto industry depends on imported parts — economists warn the tariffs will hurt Alabama in both the short run and the long run.
At an August 27, 2025 town hall in Daphne, Moore could not answer a simple question from his own constituents — who actually pays for Trump's tariffs. The room chanted "Who pays the tariffs!? Who pays the tariffs!?" at him until he moved on.
We are feeling this directly in our wallets. What is Barry Moore doing about that? Making things worse. We deserve better.
We all deserve access to quality healthcare so we can live healthy and productive lives.
Barry Moore disagrees:
He voted to cut more than $1 trillion in federal health care and food assistance as part of the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act"
He voted to let ACA tax credits expire, increasing health costs for millions of Americans, driving many of them to switch to cheaper plans or abandon health insurance coverage altogether. And the less people there are with coverage, the higher the rest of our premiums will be.
He wants to repeal the ACA, reduce Medicare and Medicaid spending, and add work requirements to Medicaid.
An estimated 53,000 more Alabamians will lose health coverage under Trump's budget bill — and that number rises to 170,000 if enhanced ACA premium tax credits are also allowed to expire.
When Alabamians packed a town hall in Daphne in August 2025 to ask about Medicaid cuts and their rural hospitals, Moore told them the cuts in Trump's megabill would affect only undocumented immigrants — and the room accused him of lying.
We need healthcare to live. Literally. What is Barry Moore doing to help us? Making things worse. We deserve better.
Wants to Gut Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security
Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security aren't handouts. They're earned benefits that we pay into out of every single paycheck, our entire working lives, so that we can see a doctor, take care of our parents, and retire with dignity instead of going bankrupt when we get old or sick.
For years, Barry Moore and his party have been quietly laying the groundwork to gut these programs. Now they've said the quiet part out loud.
They admitted the plan. Speaker Mike Johnson told the "Moon Griffon Show" that "entitlement programs like Medicare, Medicaid and things like Social Security ... have to be adjusted and fixed," and that "We have a plan to do that next year ... desperate times call for desperate measures."
We know what the plan looks like. The Republican Study Committee — a caucus of more than 170 House Republicans that includes Speaker Johnson and his top three deputies in leadership — released a budget calling for raising the Social Security retirement age for future retirees and converting Medicare into a privatized "premium support" model that would hand seniors over to for-profit insurance companies.
They already started. The "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" that Barry Moore supported cut roughly $1 trillion from Medicaid to help pay for tax cuts for the richest 1 percent.
Even Republicans admit what "reform" means. Sen. Josh Hawley, on the push to "address" and "reform" these programs: "That's usually code for 'cut.' I'm not in favor of that."
It's a broken promise. Donald Trump pledged in 2024, "I will never do anything that will jeopardize or hurt Social Security or Medicare." Barry Moore and his party are now preparing to do exactly that.
These programs are a promise: work hard, pay in your whole life, and your country will be there for you when you need it. Barry Moore wants to break that promise so he can keep cutting taxes for billionaires. We deserve better.
Cut Taxes for the Rich, While Making the Rest of Us Pay For It
We all need to pay our fair share to the government so it can provide the services that benefit all of us.
But billionaires in the U.S. pay a smaller tax rate than most teachers and nurses. That's not fair.
The wealthiest 400 billionaire families in the U.S. paid an average federal individual tax rate of just 8.2 percent. For comparison, the average American taxpayer in the same year paid 13 percent.
23 of the largest and most profitable companies in the US paid no federal corporate income taxes from 2018-2022. And 109 corporations paid zero federal tax in at least one of those years.
The "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" that Barry Moore supported will reduce taxes for the top 1 percent of taxpayers by more than $1 trillion over the next decade, while raising taxes for the poorest Americans.
Barry Moore is on the side of the billionaires and big business. We deserve better.
We all deserve clean air, clean water, and a healthy planet to live on.
Barry Moore has supported the repealing and rolling back of environmental protections and climate change regulations, all so that billionaires and big business can plunder natural resources and destroy our environment in the name of profit.
Is Intentionally Wrecking Our Public Schools and Our Kids' Futures
Nine out of ten American children — 49.6 million of them — go to a public school. It's where they learn to read, where they eat breakfast and lunch, where kids with disabilities are guaranteed an education by law, and where a kid from any family, rich or poor, religious or not, gets a fair shot.
Barry Moore and his party are taking that apart on purpose: draining public school money into private and religious schools, pushing one religion into everybody else's classrooms, and shutting down the federal department that is supposed to look out for our kids.
He voted to create the first national private school voucher in American history. It is hidden inside the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act." You give up to $1,700 a year to a charity that hands out private school scholarships, and the government gives you back every penny you gave on your taxes. It costs you nothing — no other tax break in the country works that way. Each person is capped at $1,700, but any number of people can do it, so there is no limit on what it drains from the Treasury. It starts January 1, 2027. Congress's own scorekeepers say $26 billion over ten years; one tax research group says as much as $51 billion every year — more than the government spends on Title I ($18.4 billion) for poor schools and IDEA ($14.6 billion) for kids with disabilities combined. And "low-income" means a family earning three times what a normal family in their area earns still qualifies — in some places, $500,000 a year.
They are giving away our tax dollars to families who are already wealthy and were never in public school to begin with. Every state that has tried it gets the same result — the money goes to people already paying private tuition: 95% of Arkansas voucher users never attended a public school. In Florida's first year of universal vouchers, 69% of new recipients were already in private school and only 13% had ever set foot in a public one. In Iowa, two-thirds were already in private school. We aren't rescuing kids from bad schools — we're cutting checks to families who never needed them, with the money coming out of the schools 90% of our kids actually attend.
And the kids who do switch end up doing worse. Four careful studies found the same thing. In Washington, DC, voucher kids fell behind in math. In Louisiana, a student who started in the middle of the class dropped to the bottom third in math after three years. Indiana and Ohio found the same. Kids with disabilities lost the most.
The money goes to religious schools that can turn our kids away. Ohio now spends nearly $1 billion a year on vouchers, the vast majority going to Catholic and evangelical schools — schools that, unlike public schools, can reject your child over their religion, their disability, or who their parents are, or for ANY REASON AT ALL with almost no accountability for the public money they take. Many have simply raised tuition to capture the vouchers instead of enrolling more students.
Our public schools took generations to build, and they are the one institution that has to take every single child who walks in the door. Barry Moore is helping tear them down and hand the pieces to private interests. Our kids will pay for it for the rest of their lives. We deserve better.
A good job where we can make a living to support our families, own a home, and have a good life. That's the American Dream.
Barry Moore supports policies and an administration that are turning the American Dream into a nightmare.
There were 20.8 million layoffs in the U.S. in 2025
55% of employed Americans say they're concerned about losing their jobs
The unemployment rate is 4.2%
In 2025 the U.S. economy averaged just 15,000 jobs added per month, a dramatic decrease from the monthly average of 125,000 the year before Trump took office.
Overall employment for workers without college degrees fell by 361,000 jobs from January to September 2025.
58,000 net manufacturing jobs have been lost from April, when the administration announced "Liberation Day" tariffs, to September 2025.
Let Elon Musk and DOGE Cut More Than $319 MILLION from Alabama
We all want a government that works for us as efficiently and effectively as possible. Unfortunately our government doesn't always work that way, so reform is badly needed. Given how big and complicated the government is, it's a tough problem that needs well-thought out solutions, so that we don't make things worse.
That's not what we got.
Barry Moore stood idly by while billionaire and ketamine-addled chaos monkey Elon Musk and his DOGE goons chainsawed their way through the U.S. government, promising to save the government at least $2 trillion annually in waste, fraud and abuse. Because they had no idea what they were doing and no one to stop them, in the end our government suffered, people suffered, Alabama suffered, government spending actually went UP and Elon Musk became even richer.
Elon Musk and DOGE:
Had access to and exfiltrated (stole) all our sensitive personal information.
Kneecapped the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which had returned over $26 billion to the American people since 2011.
Attempted to cut $4 billion in funding for medical research.
Will cost the federal government an estimated $500 billion in lost tax revenue (that could pay for programs for us), due to cuts at the IRS.
Laid waste to the employees at several government departments, removing their top experts and most skilled practitioners, and making their services less effective for all of us. This badly affected veterans, who make up 30% of the federal workforce.
DOGE canceled a $190 million CDC grant to Alabama's Department of Public Health — funding that supported roughly 140 county health department positions specializing in preventing the spread of infectious diseases, including outbreak investigations in prisons, nursing homes, and day care centers.
Moore voted twice to make the DOGE cuts permanent. He voted for the Rescissions Act on June 12, 2025, and again on July 18, 2025 for the rule that sent the final $9 billion clawback — stripping money from public broadcasting and foreign aid — to the President's desk.
We'd like to thank you, Barry Moore, for doing absolutely nothing while an unelected South African big tech billionaire took a chainsaw to vital U.S. government functions and completely failed to make the government more efficient. We deserve better.
As a member of Congress, part of Barry Moore's job is to act as a check and balance to the executive branch. He and his fellow members of Congress from Alabama have completely abdicated their responsibility. These spineless cowards are rubber stamping everything Donald Trump wants to do, no matter how crazy, dangerous or harmful. And we've seen the results. We deserve better.
We deserve to feel safe in our neighborhoods, schools, and places of worship.
In order to do that, we need to take real steps to prevent gun violence. And despite what we've been told, it is possible to support the 2nd Amendment and support common-sense gun safety laws at the same time. But Barry Moore has opposed bipartisan gun safety laws, while offering meaningless thoughts and prayers every time there's a new mass shooting.
A child or adolescent is killed with a gun every 2 hours and 48 minutes in the U.S.
Age-adjusted firearm homicide rates in the U.S. are 33 times greater than in Australia and 77 times greater than in Germany
Every day, 125 Americans are killed with guns, and more than 200 are shot and wounded
Women in the U.S. are 28 times more likely to be killed with a gun than women in other high-income countries.
Alabama has the 5th highest rate of gun violence in the nation — 213.6 shooting incidents per 100,000 residents from 2014 to 2024, roughly 83% higher than the national average of 116.9, with 10,522 shooting incidents over that period.
America is the land of FREEDOM. Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom to start a business, freedom to choose your own career path, freedom to make your own medical decisions, freedom to raise your children according to your values, and freedom to pursue happiness. Freedom is what makes America great.
Unless you're a woman and you're making the deeply personal decision about whether to have a baby or not. A decision that will dramatically affect the rest of your life. In that case Barry Moore thinks that your freedom doesn't matter and that the government should get to control your body. That's not freedom, that's tyranny.
Alabama's Attorney General even tried to prosecute organizations that help women travel to other states for care, until a federal judge ruled he can't.
Arkansas House of Representatives candidate (and pastor) Robb Ryerse stated it well: "Abortion should remain safe and legal. These are personal decisions best made by patients, their doctors, and their faith — not politicians. You don't have to agree with every decision someone makes to believe they should be free to make it. That's what personal liberty means." Almost 2/3 of Americans agree and believe that abortion should be legal in all or most cases. But Barry Moore thinks he knows better, and doesn't believe that we should have the freedom to make our own decisions. We deserve better.
In America our vote represents our will. It gives us the power to make the change that we want to see in the world.
Unfortunately that's not a sentiment that Barry Moore's billionaire and big business donors can stomach. Because when we have voting power, we use it to make our lives better, and they lose power. Read about all the ways they're trying to take away our voting power on our about page, then come back here.
Barry Moore has opposed legislation to make voting easier while supporting the SAVE Act, which would force every single American citizen to prove their citizenship status in person when registering to vote or updating their voter registration information. For the vast majority of Americans, this would mean presenting a passport or birth certificate at their local election office. This would disenfranchise millions of U.S. citizens: 146 million Americans do not have a passport, and 69 million women who have married do not have a birth certificate that matches their new legal name. Working-class and low-income Americans would also be disproportionately disenfranchised if the bill became law, as the vast majority of these groups do not possess a passport.
The SAVE Act would hit Alabama especially hard. There are over 1.15 million women in Alabama whose birth certificate doesn't match their current legal name, and Alabama is one of just seven states where less than a third of citizens have a valid passport.
YOU HAVE POWER. Why else do you think Barry Moore and his bosses are working so hard to take it away? Don't let them. We deserve better.
Whether white, black, or brown, we should all be able to live in America and exercise our constitutional rights without fear that law enforcement will turn on us.
But the current administration has created a secret police force that is abusing their power against anyone who stands in their way, U.S. citizen or not. They claim to be going after "the worst of the worst", but are taking daycare workers, day laborers, grandmas and kids who are valued members of our communities. And Barry Moore, staunch defender of the Second Amendment to fight back against government tyranny, is doing nothing while the government tyrannizes us.
ProPublica:They describe the legions of masked immigration officers operating in near-total anonymity on the orders of the president as the crossing of a line that had long set the United States apart from the world's most repressive regimes. ICE, in their view, has become an unfettered and unaccountable national police force.
ProPublica:Accosting people outside of their immigration court hearings where they're showing up and trying to do the right thing and then hauling them off to an immigration jail in the middle of the country where they can't access loved ones or speak to counsel. Bands of masked men apprehending people in broad daylight in the streets and hauling them off. Disappearing people to a third country, to a prison where there's a documented record of serious torture and human rights abuse.
New York Times:Masked and heavily armed, ICE agents are sent to cities such as Chicago, Los Angeles and Minneapolis to terrorize immigrant communities and brutalize people who challenge their efforts to stop and detain anyone deemed suspicious. To expand its reach, ICE greatly lowered its recruitment standards, effectively enlisting anyone who cares to sign up. To attract new officers, ICE advertises the chance to do violence to people deemed "enemies" of the United States, likening civil immigration enforcement to a war on a dangerous, alien force. The result is an agency whose agents' first recourse appears to be violence or the threat of violence.
They are executing American citizens. On January 7, 2026 an ICE agent in Minneapolis murdered an American citizen, a mother of 3, by shooting her in the face as she tried to drive away. Then the killer walked away, and our government lied and tried to gaslight us about what happened. Decent politicians condemned the murder. What did Barry Moore have to say? Nothing.
They are executing American citizens: Part 2. On January 24, 2026 ICE agents in Minneapolis murdered an American citizen, a 37 year old ICU nurse, who was filming their activity and trying to help others. Then our government lied and tried to gaslight us about what happened.
And the list of the dead keeps growing. ICE agents — on duty and off — keep killing members of our communities, while Barry Moore says nothing:
On December 31, 2025, an off-duty ICE officer in Northridge, Los Angeles shot and killed Keith Porter Jr., a 43-year-old U.S. citizen and father of two who was born and raised in Compton. Federal officials called it self-defense against an "active shooter," but Porter's family says he was peacefully returning home and never posed a threat — and witnesses reported only three shots, matching his autopsy and contradicting claims of an exchange of gunfire.
On July 7, 2026, an ICE officer in Houston shot and killed Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a 52-year-old father of three and small-business owner who had lived in the U.S. for 35 years. Agents had been hunting a different white van. Harris County's medical examiner ruled his death a homicide, and his co-workers disputed ICE's claim that he used his vehicle as a weapon.
On July 13, 2026, an ICE agent in Biddeford, Maine shot and killed Joan Sebastian Guerrero, a 26-year-old Colombian father who was legally authorized to work in the U.S. and supported his wife and 3-year-old daughter by delivering food and cleaning a veterinary clinic. He was not the target of ICE's warrant — agents were looking for someone else — and were not wearing body cameras. Even Maine's Republican Senator Susan Collins urged DHS to halt non-urgent vehicle stops in the state.
It's happening here in Alabama. A Baldwin County construction worker says ICE detained him twice despite proof of citizenship, and ICE raids across the state have swept up dozens of people at a time.
If ICE can murder innocent U.S. citizens without repercussions, what could they do to you? ICE is out of control and a danger to us all - no one is safe. What's Barry Moore going to do about it? Absolutely nothing. We deserve better.
Voted for the Unnecessary and Unpopular War in Iran
War destroys human lives, families and innocent people, causes economic ruin, and triggers immense suffering. War should always be the option of last resort.
In order to distract from the Epstein Files, Donald Trump started an illegal war of choice with Iran, and now:
We are being dog-walked by Israel, who has been trying to convince presidents to attack Iran forever, and finally found one dumb enough to do so
The American people don't want this war with Iran. But Barry Moore supports this madness and voted against the War Powers Resolution that would have stopped it. Does Barry Moore work for Israel or the people of Alabama? We deserve better.
Protected Pedophiles by Blocking Release of the Epstein Files
Jeffrey Epstein ran a global sex trafficking network that sexually abused dozens of girls and women for decades. The FBI identified at least 35 minors with similar abuse histories. When finally released in 2026, the files — over 3 million pages, 2,000 videos, and 180,000 images — revealed what UN human rights experts called "disturbing and credible evidence" of a possible global criminal enterprise. Those experts said some of the conduct may meet the threshold for crimes against humanity, including sexual slavery, torture, and enforced disappearance.
For months, House Republican leadership blocked every vote to release these files — and Barry Moore went along.
Only once Trump relented did Moore vote for the Epstein Files Transparency Act on November 18, 2025 — a bill that passed 427 to 1. When releasing the files cost him nothing, he was happy to go along. When it counted, he protected the powerful.
Hates Democracy and Tried to Steal the 2020 Election
Our democracy only works when every vote is counted and the losing side accepts the result.
Barry Moore did the opposite. He was sworn in on January 3, 2021 — three days before a mob stormed the Capitol to stop the counting of the electoral votes. He had already spent the weeks before his swearing-in pushing the lie that sent them there, and he spent the six months after it voting against every attempt to find out what happened.
Before he even had a vote to cast, he was one of 26 members-elect who signed a December 15, 2020 letter demanding Speaker Pelosi investigate "reported gross violations of our elections process" — claims every court that examined them had already thrown out.
Just hours after the Capitol attack, he voted to reject Arizona's and Pennsylvania's electoral votes — working to overturn a free and fair election two days into his first term.
Barry Moore tried to overturn an election he didn't like, then spent six months making sure nobody could look into what happened when it failed. We deserve better.
Britton O'Shields, staff attorney for CAIR Alabama, told reporters that sharia is a code of ethics closer to the religious codes observed in Christianity and Judaism than to any legal system, and that in her dealings with Alabama's Muslim communities she has "never heard, one time, somebody talking about instituting Sharia law over the law of the United States." Of the bill's name, she said crusader imagery "presents Islam as something to be liberated from or conquered. So, the title itself is promoting these Islamophobic ideals." Moore kept the name.
This is not new for him. In 2014, as a state representative pressing a primary rival to drop out of the race, Moore listed banning or curbing sharia law among his priorities for the next four years — a conversation the rival secretly recorded.
A government strong enough to make one faith swear loyalty oaths is strong enough to come for yours. We deserve better.
Fled His Own Town Hall and Then Insulted the People Who Came
A town hall is the one chance an ordinary person gets to stand up and ask their congressman a question to his face. On the evening of August 27, 2025, a room full of Alabamians took that chance in Daphne City Hall. Here is what Barry Moore did with it.
He couldn't answer the simplest question in the room. Asked who actually pays for Trump's tariffs, Moore didn't have an answer, and the crowd began chanting "Who pays the tariffs!? Who pays the tariffs!?" Asked about the "One Big Beautiful Bill," he explained that it meant the Trump tax cuts, and was booed.
He told them the Medicaid cuts would only hit undocumented immigrants. His constituents — who had come to ask about Medicaid, their rural hospitals, tariffs, immigration, abortion, and the National Guard deployment in Washington — accused him of lying.
Then he left through the back door. Moore offered no concluding remarks and didn't say goodnight, exiting through the rear of City Hall as the room chanted "Shame!"
The next morning he went on the radio and called them paid actors. On WVNN's "The Dale Jackson Show," Moore said the event had been "somewhat hijacked" by activists, and said of the people who showed up: "So I don't know if they were just trying to get a check from Soros and collect a little money or what."
Barely anyone knew it was happening. AL.com reported that the 45-minute session was neither publicly announced nor open to the media, and that word of it spread through the Baldwin County Democratic Facebook page. Yellowhammer News, which carried Moore's account, says it was promoted in advance on his social media.
Moore says he has "a reputation for being the second most accessible Republican in all of Congress." Accessibility isn't showing up. It's answering the question, staying until the end, and not calling the people who elected you paid plants on the radio the next morning. We deserve better.
We're all going to pay the price for this with increased rates of asthma, cancer, and premature deaths. We deserve better.
