概要

 Alabama Governor Kay Ivey delivered her final State of the State address this week, declaring the states momentum strong amid robust economic growth, enhanced public safety, and education gains. According to ABC3340, Ivey highlighted 69 billion dollars in investments since 2017, creating over 100,000 jobs from projects like U.S. Space Command headquarters in Huntsville, Lilly Medicine, and Meta expansions. Alabama ranks among the top ten states for business, bolstered by the Rebuild Alabama Act funding two billion dollars for roads and bridges across all 67 counties.

The 2026 legislative session kicked off January 13, with lawmakers focusing on balanced budgets, rural development via the Rural Roadmap Initiative, and noncontroversial priorities in this election year, as previewed by Alabama Realtors. Ivey proposed her largest-ever Education Trust Fund, including two percent pay raises for teachers and state employees, expanded CHOOSE Act funding to 250 million dollars for school choice, and 50 million dollars more for K-12 safety. Public safety measures call for tougher penalties, more state troopers, and the Child Predator Death Penalty Act. APlusAlabama reports plans to limit screen time for children five and under, building on last years cell phone ban in schools.

Business thrives with an 11 million dollar federal grant for Hoovers Stadium Trace Village, creating 300 construction jobs and 200 permanent ones, per the Alabama Department of Labor. Community projects abound, including 17 million dollars in grants for water, sewer, and street upgrades in 44 towns, announced by ADECA. Infrastructure highlights feature 21 developments like UABs biomedical building, a new state house in Montgomery, and Mobiles international airport, all eyeing 2026 openings, according to The Bama Buzz. No major weather events reported recently.

Looking Ahead: Watch for AHSAA reforms on school choice athletes, rural health funding over 200 million dollars, and a new state house debut this fall as Iveys tenure ends next January.
