 Alabama is experiencing a mix of political shifts, economic booms, and educational advancements amid a recent cold snap. Top headlines include the tragic death of eight-year-old Sarah Marsh from Mountain Brook in Texas floods, as reported by Alabama Daily News, State Representative Debbie Wood's resignation from her Lee and Chambers counties seat at month's end, and early buzz on 2026 races from political commentator Steve Flowers. In politics, the 2025 legislative session wrapped with major education funding overhauls amid filibusters, according to Alabama Daily News. An appeal challenges SB 129, Alabama's campus censorship law restricting discussions on race and DEI, filed by professors, students, and the NAACP with the Legal Defense Fund and ACLU of Alabama, arguing it violates First Amendment rights.

Economically, pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly announced a record $6 billion advanced manufacturing plant in Huntsville, creating 450 jobs and 3,000 construction roles, hailed by Governor Kay Ivey as the state's largest investment, per the Governor's Office. Bad Boy Mowers plans a $10.5 million tractor plant in Monroeville, boosting employment. The bioscience sector, worth $7.3 billion annually, continues thriving.

Communities see progress in education and infrastructure. The Alabama Commission on Higher Education approved $2.7 billion in college budget requests for FY27, including new AI and data science programs at Alabama A&M and South Alabama. UAB completed $872 million in projects like the Altec/Styslinger Genomic Building, while Huntsville City Schools broke ground on a $56 million shared elementary campus. Public safety remains steady, with schools navigating a cold snap for delays, as detailed by Montgomery Advertiser.

No major severe weather events hit Alabama recently, though the chill prompts vigilance.

Looking Ahead: Watch Governor Ivey's January budget proposal, Lilly construction starting in 2026, and 2026 election developments.
