Governor Kay Ivey announced that Alabama has reached a major early literacy milestone as Dolly Parton's Imagination Library surpasses two million books mailed to children across the state. This achievement represents a commitment to early learning, with every young learner in all 67 counties now able to participate in the program.
On the business front, Alabama continues to attract major investments. Southwire is planning a 176 million dollar expansion at its plant in Heflin, creating numerous jobs for the region. Meanwhile, Aquatic Leisure Technologies has selected Opp, Alabama for its first U.S. manufacturing facility, a 56,000 square foot operation that will serve as the manufacturing home for Aqua Technics Pools.
In higher education, Drake State Community and Technical College is joining the AWS Machine Learning University Educators Consortium, positioning itself as one of 14 historically Black institutions working to broaden access to artificial intelligence and machine learning education. This initiative aims to strengthen Alabama's talent pipeline and support a more inclusive tech workforce.
Northeast Alabama Community College celebrated record enrollment numbers in 2025, with more than 3,500 for-credit students registered this fall. The college is also adding two new health care programs beginning in January, diagnostic medical sonography and medical laboratory technology, supported by a 3 million dollar appropriation from the state legislature.
On the athletic front, Alabama's women's basketball team remains undefeated after defeating Kennesaw State 79 to 65, extending its home winning streak to 10 games.
Governor Ivey is also encouraging Alabama small businesses to compete in the 2026 National Small Business Week Awards, with nominations now open in categories including veteran-owned, women-owned, manufacturing, and rural business of the year. All nominations must be submitted by December 22nd.
Tourism continues to boost Alabama's economy, with the state posting 7.9 billion dollars in total tourism impact in 2024, positioning it as an emerging top U.S. destination.
Looking ahead, listeners should watch for the announcement of winners in the National Small Business Week Awards process, as well as continued developments in Alabama's growing tech sector and ongoing infrastructure projects across the state.
