## Resource

Katherine Robertson, Alabama’s Republican attorney general nominee, is pushing for a balanced approach to Flock cameras—supporting law enforcement tools while fiercely defending privacy rights. As chief counsel in the AG’s office, she’s ready to lead the conversation, emphasizing that Alabamians deserve both safety and freedom. With legislation expected from State Senator Arthur Orr, the focus is on crafting clear legal boundaries so surveillance tech serves the public without turning Alabama into a surveillance state. Robertson believes compromise is possible—and necessary—to protect citizens’ liberties while empowering police with effective resources.
