Senator Jack Williams is a lifelong resident of Wilmer, Alabama, a fourth-generation farmer, and a proven conservative Republican in the Alabama Legislature. He has fought for the rights of Alabama’s farmers, small business owners, and rural communities for over a decade. With that in mind, he is now running to become Alabama’s next Commissioner of Agriculture and Industries.

Senator Williams and his wife, Bobbie, have been married for 50 years. Together, they built J Bar W Farm, a family-run operation focused on cattle, timber, and hay production. In 1986, they expanded into the nursery business, founding Twin Oaks Nursery in Wilmer. The success of that company led to their acquisition of Tom Dodd Nurseries in Semmes, growing the business into one of the largest nursery operations of its kind in the country. Today, their son, John, owns and manages the nursery, while their grandson, Mica, manages day-to-day operations at the cattle farm.

Throughout his service in the Alabama Legislature, Jack has been a consistent voice for conservative values and currently serves as the Vice Chair of the Agriculture, Conservation, and Forestry Committee, as well as the Banking and Insurance Committee. He led the charge to ban lab-grown meat, cut taxes on agricultural fencing, and legalize baiting for deer and feral pig hunting. Time and again, he has proven to be a trusted friend to cattlemen, foresters, producers, and small business owners across Alabama. Most recently, Senator Williams sponsored and passed legislation that brings relief to truck drivers across the state. The bill restricts state law enforcement from detaining more than five trucks on the roadside at one-time and allows the driver to appeal an overweight citation should they be found to be within the legal limit at a fixed body scale.

As Commissioner of Agriculture, Jack will fight for hardworking farm families and small business owners, protect our God-given natural resources, and oppose unnecessary regulations from government overreach.
