My name is Landon Britton and I was born and raised in the Huntsville area. I went to high school at Hazel Green High School and graduated there in 2017. After graduating, I attended the University of Alabama where I majored in architectural engineering with a focus in structural engineering. While in school for engineering, I was a member of the Million Dollar Band, and after graduating with my Bachelor's degree in 2022, I started working with a Birmingham-based engineering firm where I now practice structural engineering. In 2025, I passed my professional engineering exam, and I will be a licensed structural engineer in the state of Alabama in 2026.
  • Government Transparency. People need better representation - elected officials that have the people's interests in mind and not the interests of companies and corporations. Government should be led by public servants that are focused on serving the community, rather than career politicians.
  • Rural healthcare access and expansion. Alabama is facing a crisis in its rural communities, where hospitals are closing due to limited funding. Ensuring that emergency rooms can continue providing care is critical for both the health of local residents and the stability of the local economy.
  • Smart Revenue Solutions. With federal cuts looming over Alabama's future, preparing the state for the future is a key priority. Repealing the hemp ban (HB 455) and establishing a state education lottery are two measures that could help support public education funding and maintain student access across the state.
Healthcare access, voting rights, public education, public transportation, housing and development.
There are a couple of people I look up to - my father and mother being number 1. A famous person I look up to is Dolly Parton. My parents taught me the value of hard work and to always aim for my best. Dolly Parton is a kindred spirit who has done nothing but uplift those around her.
I believe that a state representative should be responsible for ensuring that the will of the people is done. The role of the representative should be to be a servant of the people, not a servant of the political party.
I would like to help usher in the next age in Alabama. One where we are remembered for the grassroots campaigns that put people over politics, and real solutions for real issues. I'd like to leave the hyper-partisan age of politics behind us.
The first historical event that happened that I remember was 9/11. While I do not remember the day, I remember in my kindergarten, 1st grade, and 2nd grade classes talking about the events of that day each year.
My first job was working as a maintenance worker at a local golf course. I was responsible for keeping the fairways and the rough cut and maintained.
My favorite book is the Red Rising series. This book series is centered around a classist society and the struggle for equality. It rings home in today's world, but is also so so well written.
The governor and state legislature should have a respected relationship. While the state legislature and governorship might have the same goals, it is imperative that the legislature be independent from the governor. The legislature work with the governor - not for them.
Alabama's greatest challenge over the next decade will be to adapt and redefine itself. Organizing locally will be imperative to this. Currently, there are hardly any contested elections within the state - leaving the same candidates to win again and again. People not from Alabama think that "Alabama voted for this!" when a bad candidate wins, but the truth is that there usually is only 1 option in the race. Alabama needs to help foster a new generation of leaders that value people over power.
It is a plus, but not a requirement. What matters more is their policy ideas and their means of achieving them.
Yes, legislators should be able to build relationships with each other. Legislators work together, and so they need to be able to get along while they work.
The legislature should be responsible for checking the governor's use of emergency powers and declarations. While the governor may be able to call for emergency declarations, it should be up to the legislature to continue to grant or to call for an end of emergency powers.
My first bill would be to overturn and repeal the Hemp Ban in Alabama (HB 455). Currently, small business owners in the hemp industry are struggling due to the passage of HB 455 in 2025. This would allow for these small businesses to buy their original product and sell it, regaining some of their lost profits.
It would be good. It would allow for the public to have more of a say of what goes on in our state.
