54th Governor of Alabama
POPULARITY
MONTGOMERY – Gov. Kay Ivey signed Senate Bill 67, sponsored by Sen. Andrew Jones and Rep. Ed Oliver, to further elevate veteran needs in Alabama. “Alabama's veterans deserve our very best, and I am grateful to the Alabama Legislature for its resounding support of this important legislation,” said Ivey. “We will use this new structure to focus on what matters most – serving those who sacrificed so much for our freedoms – our veterans and their families.” The law aligns the governance structure of the Alabama Department of Veterans Affairs (ADVA) with that of other agencies in the governor's cabinet,...Article Link
Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey met with representatives of the Alliance for Automotive Innovation last week to discuss the potential effects of President Donald Trump's tariffs on the state's automotive industry. The Trump administration's recently imposed 25% tariff on auto imports from Canada and Mexico could lead to higher costs, some industry experts predict. Alliance for Automotive Innovation CEO John Bozzella told Reuters that some vehicle prices could increase by up to 25%, with the effects being seen almost immediately. The AAI is a trade group that represents several companies with manufacturing facilities in Alabama, such as Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Hyundai, Toyota...Article Link
Today we have AL.com reporter Ivana Hrynkiw on the show to update us on some prison issues. Her series on Alabama's parole practices last year caught a lot of attention, so we'll get updated on that. Also, we'll talk about a couple of high-profile death-penalty cases -- one that was recently commuted by Gov. Kay Ivey and another -- involving Death Row inmate Toforest Johnson -- that has gotten a lot of attention already. Click here to read all Ivana's work. First, we'll talk about an American command position in NATO, do another legislation roundup, and see who else is now using nitrogen gas to execute Death Row inmates.

Josh and David tackle religious mandates in schools, calling out multiple bills trying to force Ten Commandments displays and "Judeo-Christian prayers" on students. David, a devout Christian himself, finds these proposals "patently offensive" and contrary to true religious freedom.The hosts dig into Gov. Kay Ivey's power struggle with the Veterans Affairs board, suggesting a compromise where she could fire the commissioner but would select candidates from a board-approved list rather than turning it into just another political appointment.Rep. Terri Sewell doesn't hold back on the "chaotic" federal budget cuts hammering Alabama. From Medicaid to community health centers to Social Security, she warns these services face devastating impacts while the wealthy get tax breaks. Sewell outlines Democrats' strategy of "litigating, legislating, and mobilizing" to fight back.Freshman Congressman Shomari Figures brings fresh energy to the discussion, criticizing the administration for using "a chainsaw when a scalpel is needed." He points out the $2 trillion deficit framework somehow finds money for tax cuts for the wealthy but not for everyday Americans. Figures also calls out Elon Musk's "conflict of interest" and slams targeted cuts affecting HBCUs.The show wraps with Josh and David defending Avette Dunn, a dedicated lunchroom worker fired after eight years of exemplary service for accepting an anonymous donation to help feed kids. They call it a perfect example of senseless "bureaucratic nonsense" that punishes good intentions.Connect with UsX/TwitterFacebookAbout Our SponsorAlabama Politics This Week is sponsored by Wind Creek Hospitality.

The Department of Government Efficiency has been the primary topic in the national news cycle since Jan. 20th. You may have thought to yourself, Alabama needs a DOGE. Well, you're in luck because the Alabama Policy Institute (API) is working on that exact thing with ALDOGE. API has been around for over 35 years working towards limited government, free markets, and strong families in Alabama. Now they have a unique opportunity to replicate the national trend of identifying and eliminating waste and abuse in government. This week Bryan Dawson is joined by API President and CEO Stephanie Smith to discuss ALDOGE and other things going on in our state government. You might be surprised to find that under Gov. Kay Ivey, the combined state budgets have doubled with surpluses nearly every year since she has been in office. A budget surplus means they took more money from you than you needed. You might also be surprised to find that a lone Democrat, State Rep. Anthony Daniels, is working to cut taxes for working class families, while those in leadership positions in our Republican supermajority are working to end tax cuts on overtime but issuing tax cuts to athletes in their NIL deals.

In this episode of Armed American Radio, host Mark Walters discusses various topics related to gun rights, government accountability, and the complacency among gun owners. The conversation includes insights on potential candidates for the ATF director position, the role of citizens in holding government officials accountable, and the recent gun control measures in Alabama. The episode emphasizes the importance of vigilance among gun owners and the need for active participation in political processes to protect their rights. Armed American Radio, gun rights, ATF, complacency, gun control, accountability, pro-gun legislation, armed resistance Takeaways The importance of being proactive in government accountability. Gun owners must not become complacent, especially with changing political landscapes. State-level gun control measures can pose significant threats to gun rights. The role of social media in influencing political decisions is crucial. Complacency within the gun community can lead to detrimental outcomes. Political contributions often influence lawmakers' decisions on gun control. The need for citizens to assert their rights and not act as victims. Pro-gun legislation is being introduced in Congress, showing potential for progress. Armed resistance can lead to positive outcomes in dangerous situations. Support for gun rights organizations is essential for maintaining freedoms.

On the Newswrap today from In Focus, Todd Stacy, host of Alabama Public Television's Capitol Journal, discusses Governor Kay Ivey's State of the State address. And the Wildcard has a tough case to crack!
The Deep South is bracing for its first winter storm in 11 years. An 18-year-old New Hampshire teen received a life-saving kidney transplant from a Foley woman. Admiral Kent Davis, former Alabama Department of Veteran Affairs commissioner, is considering a run for state office after being fired by Governor Kay Ivey.President-elect Donald Trump will be sworn in as the 47th President of the United States on Monday.
In October 2024, Gov. Kay Ivey used her "supreme executive power of this state" to unilaterally fire then-Alabama Department of Veteran Affairs Commissioner Kent Davis. Quite a saga led up to this unceremonious removal of the beloved ADVA commissioner, and many questions remain on whether Ivey has the authority to terminate a state agency head that serves at the pleasure of an appointed board of directors, in this case the State Board of Veterans Affairs. A similar situation arose in the COVID pandemic years when the state health officer, who acts as the head of the Alabama Department of Public Health, Scott Harris, came under fire for his tyrannical measures in response to the virus. The governor's office claimed there was nothing Ivey could do, as an appointed board of directors chooses the state health officer, not the governor. Ivey claimed her hands were tied, so much so that legislation was passed to give the governor some authority over who the state health officer is in case another pandemic or health crisis arises. The only conclusion that can be drawn from this is that Ivey had the authority to fire Scott Harris all along and chose not to, or she didn't have the authority to fire Kent Davis, but did it anyway. This week Bryan Dawson sits down with former ADVA Commissioner Rear Admiral Kent Davis to hear the entire story from his perspective. Overtime: War stories with Admiral Davis ... and they involve Hunter Biden!

Two Alabama Political Firestorms to Start the New Year Retirement Systems of Alabama (RSA) head David Bronner recently published an article in the RSA's monthly publication The Advisor in which he bashed conservatives and conservative organizations, lamenting that we never offer any positive solutions and then pitching gambling as the panacea for all that ails the state. He named 1819 News specifically as one of those “smart” but troublesome organizations. Bronner added to his attack with a letter to the editor of Lagniappe Daily in Mobile, criticizing 1819 News' Editor-in-Chief Jeff Poor. Turning to the other firestorm, there was an obviously coordinated communications strategy in which numerous state agencies showered Governor Kay Ivey with praises almost in eulogistic fashion. In the wake of those adulations, rumors have abounded that she is going to step down. When 1819 News reached out to her office to see if. these rumors were true, we were told "No Comment." All of that has set the conspiracy wheels ablaze as her stepping down would hand not only the throne to Lt. Gov Will Ainsworth but also incumbency going into what could be a hotly contested gubernatorial primary in 2026. This week's podcast with 1819 News CEO Bryan Dawson and Editor-in-Chief Jeff Poor is as entertaining and engaging as it is informative and educational.

1819 News: The Podcast has a unique episode for you this week! A few things have been getting under CEO Bryan Dawson's skin lately. Naturally, he sat down with Joey Clark on his radio show News and Views, which airs on Montgomery's News/Talk 93.1, to air some of those concerns. We thought the “radio rant” was too good not to share! Bryan and Joey's conversation begins with the discussion of Alabama State Health Officer Scott Harris' new appointment as the president of the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials. The public health organization has ties to George Soros and focuses on important topics like “health equity” and “dismantling white supremacy.” This brings out Harris' true colors – we all knew they were there – to the surface and reminds us that he should have been fired years ago. If you recall, Alabama was told Harris couldn't be fired because he was appointed by a board of health professionals and therefore did not serve at the pleasure of the governor. This situation was such a problem that bills were filed in the last three legislative sessions to give the governor the authority to fire the state health officer. Last session one of those bills finally passed. That stands in stark contrast to a recent move made by Governor Ivey to use her “supreme executive power of this state” to unilaterally fire a different state agency head who was also appointed by a board, Rear Admiral Kent Davis, the director of the Alabama Department of Veterans Affairs. Either Ivey had the authority to fire Scott Harris and refused, or she doesn't have the authority to fire state agency heads like Rear Admiral Kent Davis who are appointed by a board, but she did it anyway. Bryan and Joey's discussion turns from Ivey's actions to the lack of leadership in the Alabama House, Senate, and Governor's Office, which creates an environment where special interests reign supreme. The conversation brought into clear focus the reality that since the Alabama Speaker of the House has been under the heavy influence of political consultant Steve Raby, the House priorities have been an increased gas tax, medical marijuana, and several major pushes for full blown gambling. The last push for gambling included Medicaid expansion. It's unbelievable that these are the priorities of the Republican supermajority of a state House in the most conservative state in the nation! Finally, the “radio rant” ends with harsh criticism of local elected leaders such as mayors, county commissioners, and city councilmen who desperately seek reasons for why they can't do what is right and necessary, and that will allow them to pass the buck. Whether its Haitian immigrants being dumped into their cities or pornographic grooming literature in the children's section of their library, local leaders' mantra is too often the same: "Ain't nuthin' I can do!" Obviously, you'll want to give this episode a listen! Special thanks to Bluewater Broadcasting, News/Talk 93.1, and Joey Clark for allowing us to use the interview.

Journalists brought up this issue again to Biden during today's press conference — did he smooth over concerns?The Republican National Committee's party platform hones in most on the “migrant invasion.” Trump's slogan, “Make America Great Again,” opens the 20-item agenda, which is an attempt to distance the campaign from Project 2025. Noticeably less prevalent in the platform: abortion. The panel looks at what's currently in the platform and whether the proposals will lead to policy.In 2022, the state of Alabama voted to ban slavery — including its use as punishment for a crime. This year, six incarcerated people are suing Governor Kay Ivey and the Department of Corrections for forced labor. The lawsuit is the first of its kind to prohibit involuntary servitude and protect the prisoners from retaliation. As part of Left, Right, and Center's 50 states series, the panel looks at the rights of people behind bars in Alabama.
Josh and David open with a discussion of Gov. Kay Ivey's controversial response to a single mother's plea for help, which went viral on TikTok. They explore the miscommunication and the need for more compassionate governance. Debbie Smith, campaign director of Cover Alabama at Alabama Arise, zooms in to discuss the formation and growth of Cover Alabama, now with 130 organizations advocating for Medicaid expansion. They cover the economic benefits of Medicaid expansion, the political resistance to it, and a call to action. In the close, Josh and David delve into the rise of gun violence in Alabama, discussing the systemic issues and historical context leading to the current crisis. They also call out local politicians supporting former President Trump during his legal troubles, emphasizing the moral inconsistencies and urgent need for genuine reform.

Cattle Industry News ALABAMA BECOMES SECOND STATE TO OUTLAW CULTIVATED MEAT Alabama is now the second state in America where cultivated meat cannot be manufactured or commercialized as Gov. Kay Ivey on Tuesday signed a bill (SB 23) that includes the cultivated meat ban. Violating the law will be a class C misdemeanor, which carries the possibility of up to a three-month jail sentence and a fine of $500. The new law takes effect October 1, 2024. Florida became the first state to pass such a ban earlier this month, with Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the bill (SB 1084) into law on May 1, 2024. PROPOSALS FINALLY SEEN ON FARM BILL After months of waiting, there is movement on farm bill legislation in Congress. On May 2, 2024, both the House and Senate provided farm bill proposals. The USDA has been operating on a 1-year extension of the 2018 farm bill. That is set to expire on Sept. 30. Areas taking top priority in the two bills are conservation, nutrition programs, and energy alternatives and incentives. Deeper in the proposals, emphasis is placed on beginning farmers and ranchers. Lending is of concern with such high-interest rates and lack of credit options. Under the credit title in the House's farm bill proposal, finance options are enhanced for new, young, beginning or veteran farmers. It also gives focus to commercial lenders' ability to be a reliable source of credit and capital. YET ANOTHER NEGATIVE QUARTER FOR BEYOND MEAT Beyond Meat reported another sharp decline in revenues for its first fiscal quarter, and net losses that were slightly improved from the same period a year ago. The company reported top-line revenues down 18%. STRONG FRESH MEAT SALES IN APRIL In an April study among 1,700 U.S. consumers, 210 Analytics found that 34% of consumers are worse off financially now than they were one year ago. However year to date, fresh meat sales continue to increase by 1 percent.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion programs are being scrapped all over the country in favor of a 'colorblind' narrative that attempts to minimize the impact of systemic racism on our present day reality. I'm taking a look at the recent move by the Alabama Legislature and Alabama governor Kay Ivey to outlaw DEI programs throughout the state, and to severely control the language used in racial sensitivity training. I'm also profiling Edward Blum, the man responsible for the outlawing of Affirmative Action and for the gutting the Voting Rights Act.
