A top donor to the University of Alabama who urged students to boycott the institution three years ago over his opposition against the state’s anti-abortion law has donated $200,000 to a political action committee supporting Katie Britt’s Senate campaign.
, Culverhouse admits he could have handled a high-profile dispute with the university’s board of directors differently.
“That kind of large contribution from a pro-abortion activist to Katie Britt is disconcerting and is a red flag,” said U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks, R-Huntsville. Britt, according to recent polling, is the frontrunner in the Senate contest with Brooks trailing in second place and Army veteran Mike Durant in a close third.
He also noted that Culverhouse has given to plenty of political campaigns over the years, including recently to Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

that he served as an NFL representative for his father in 1994. He’s had not role in an NFL since then.that is one of the reasons he’s given to Rogers, who is the top Republican on the U.S. Armed Services Committee.“I don’t understand why our military is not like Reagan’s which destroyed the Iron Curtain,” Culverhouse said. “I look at our Defense Department, and it’s a damned disgrace. That’s why I support Mike Rogers. He’s pro-defense.
“If you look at who I’ve given money to … if you think Mike Rogers is pro-choice, then I’m going to wear a dress from now on,” Culverhouse said. “Katie is not pro-choice.”
