Why were you asked, if you don't mind me asking?
I have a column on al.com that I write once or twice a month about local issues.
I have written about drug policy in the past and last month wrote a column about this task force and begged them to do the right thing.
I got a call from the director of public policy from Bentley's office and he asked me to be on the committee.
"Someone 'high up' had read my column, then read others, and wanted to get my view" he said.
I worked at a think tank in DC for awhile and wrote a white paper on the coming heroin epidemic in 2013.
