"Another way to support UAB is to be aware of Amendment 14 on your Nov. 8 ballot. This amendment is good for UAB, Birmingham, Jefferson County and Alabama because it protects laws passed since 1984 that provide funding for schools, hospitals, first-responders and key community construction projects. Specifically, Amendment 14 safeguards nearly $18 million in current funding for public schools in systems including Birmingham, Homewood, Hoover, Jefferson County, Mountain Brook, Vestavia Hills and others. For UAB, Amendment 14 protects the proposed stadium at the BJCC that will be home to UAB Football and other events. This venue will accelerate UAB Football’s ascension to national competitiveness and is — like Regions Field — important to continued downtown revitalization. You can learn more about the importance of Amendment 14 to Birmingham’s and UAB’s continued momentum and economic development at http://www.14protectsAL.com."

Regardless, it's a plug that should go a long way. Every bit of lobbying and educating on the topic helps.
