The Birmingham Times
Former U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg will join Birmingham Mayor Randall L. Woodfin for a community conversation on Monday, March 9, at 11 a.m. at the historic Carver Theatre.
The event, organized by Blueprint Alabama, will cover a range of topics including economic opportunity, infrastructure, neighborhood priorities, and the current political climate.
“Secretary Buttigieg has been one of the leading voices in the country on infrastructure investment, economic development, and the future of American communities,” Blueprint Alabama stated in a Facebook announcement. “We are proud to welcome him to Birmingham for this important conversation alongside Mayor Woodfin.”
Admission is free, but reservations are required. Doors open at 10:30 a.m.
This won’t be Buttigieg’s first visit to the Magic City. When the Biden-Harris Administration awarded more than $21.6 million to pay for street infrastructure in Birmingham’s Civil Rights District, Buttigieg came to deliver the news. In 2024, Buttigieg returned to Birmingham to further discuss ways street improvements could strengthen the community.
Blueprint Alabama hopes the listening session will bring together residents, advocates, students, and community leaders from across Alabama.
