Huntsville New Liberals

Grab a drink or two on us and let’s make friends and make Huntsville better!

Mad Malts Brewing 109 Maple Ave NW Huntsville, AL 35801

The Huntsville New Liberals are dedicated to working together to make Huntsville an even better place to live.

Come by Mad Malts Brewing from 6-8 pm on Aug 24th for drinks on us and conversations about politics with smart, mostly reasonable people.

We’re currently focusing on making Huntsville safer and easier to walk and bike around. We’re also all about some mass transit and dense, affordable housing.

As part of that focus, we’re stoked to announce that a mere two months after our very-first happy hour, the Huntsville New Liberals are hosting our very first expert speaker!

Dennis Madsen, Manager of Urban & Long-Range Planning at the City of Huntsville is gracing us with his presence to talk about what’s happening at the Huntsville Housing Authority and how you can help! Dennis is the brains behind Big Picture Huntsville, the City of Huntsville’s comprehensive master plan. Dennis and his site are chock-full of incredible urbanist ideas, including designing streets for easier and safer walking and biking and vastly increasing mass transit access.

This talk will focus on a topic that’s become especially salient as Huntsville’s rents have skyrocketed over the past few years – homelessness.
