    I am William Brockman Bankhead, a proud Democrat born and bred in Alabama. Throughout my career in politics, I championed progressive causes and stood up for labor rights. Serving as the 42nd Speaker of the United States House of Representatives was a privilege, and I did my best to represent the interests of my constituents and support President Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal.
