 Alabama listeners, in the heart of the state, top headlines capture a mix of tragedy and transition. Eight-year-old Sarah Marsh from Mountain Brook, a student at Cherokee Bend Elementary, tragically died in deadly Texas floods, with the death toll rising and campers still missing, according to Alabama Daily News. State Representative Debbie Wood, serving Lee and Chambers counties since 2018, announced her resignation from the House seat at month's end, also reported by Alabama Daily News. Meanwhile, Senator Merika Coleman plans a clean gambling bill for the legislative session, and bills targeting the AI boom are advancing, per the same source. Political eyes turn to the 2026 races, as columnist Steve Flowers notes anticipation building since late May decisions.

In government and politics, the 2026 Regular Session ramps up with legislation tracking on LegiScan, though specific passed bills remain sparse. Local decisions include tax updates in Columbiana, where the Alabama Department of Revenue adjusted sales and use tax rates effective February 1, as Bloomberg Tax reports. No major policy overhauls dominate yet.

Business and economy show steady gains, with State Superintendent Eric Mackey telling Alabama Daily News that education metrics are improving across multiple areas. Employment holds firm amid these trends, though no blockbuster developments emerge.

Community news highlights education resilience amid loss, alongside Birmingham hosting the 2026 NCAA Division III Indoor Track and Field Championships, drawing top athletes to the city, per the City of Birmingham site. Infrastructure and public safety proceed quietly, with no standout incidents.

No significant weather events have struck Alabama recently.

Looking Ahead, watch for the special election to fill Rep. Wood's seat, advancing AI and gambling bills in the legislature, and preparations for Birmingham's national track event.
