Governor Robert Bentley kept to his schedule over the weekend, despite growing turmoil in Montgomery over an alleged affair with his former senior aide. The Governor visited Eufaula to meet with the owners of a new factory that’s supposed to bring three hundred new jobs to the area. Ameritex is the only company in the U.S. that produces surgical gloves. Things could become less cordial on Tuesday, when state lawmakers return from Spring Break. Republican House member Ed Henry of Hartselle says he will present articles of impeachment against Bentley over a recording including sexual remarks allegedly aimed at his former aide Rebekah Mason. The Governor also plans to veto the current general fund budget, which he complains has inadequate funding for Medicaid. If the House and Senate override that veto, Bentley is threatening a special session.
