A state senator predicts the Alabama legislature will reconsider diluting the power of a board that oversees Southeast Health Medical Center and its affiliated medical care network.
The nagging issue centers on the appointment process. Commissioners choose all but one of the 13-member board. Still, their choices under the law are limited to one of three nominations for each seat supplied by current members of the Authority, a process that Commissioner Ricky Herring calls a fox guarding the hen house.

Still, their choices under the law are limited to one of three nominations for each seat supplied by current members of the Authority, a process that Commissioner Ricky Herring calls a fox guarding the henhouse.
Sowell questioned Dr. Kelsey Steensland’s ability to serve, referring to her as a “girl” with a “boatload of children.” Steensland and her husband, Houston County Circuit Judge “John-John” Steensland, are parents to six.Herring said he could prove the comments he characterized as “misogynistic and discriminatory” because he recorded the conversation with Sowell when they met several weeks ago.
Because Herring will not reappoint him or the two other nominees supplied by the Authority, Sowell will serve past the end of his term this weekend. That is also a law. I am telling you this because I have a recorded conversation between Chester Sowell and me in reference to the statements that were made. When I am backed into a corner and you are trying to force me to do something, I will have the proof, just as I do for juries in the courts. Chester did not"Confer", which means shared ideas, with me during the appointment process. He represented himself in his appointment process. This is not right.
