Move to promote Black history using Confederate tax fails in Legislature

Move to promote Black history using Confederate tax fails in Legislature View Comments Legislators vow to reintroduce a bill to preserve and promote Black history in Alabama using proceeds from a tax that once supported Confederate veteran pensions in special session after it failed to pass this legislative term, which ended Monday. And while most of the millions of dollars in revenue generated from the tax funds things such as schools and pensions, a portion of the tax  1%  funds operations of the Confederate Memorial Park, site of the old soldiers home. State Sens. Clyde Chambliss, R- Prattville and Bobby Singleton, D-Greensboro, sponsored the bill that would have preserved the funding for the park. The legislation would also set aside 1% from the tax collection to preserve and promote Black history.
