January 24, 2022 Group Watch: News & Views from the State House
The 2022 regular session of the Alabama Legislature was put on pause pretty much as quickly as it began, with Governor Ivey proving the rumors true and calling a special session when the legislators re-convened for the third day of the regular session last Tuesday. (Read the governor’s proclamation, below.) They started the special session at 11 a.m. on Wednesday but got a little regular session business done before Tuesday ended. Find more on that below.
Also below, find details of what transpired during the first two days of special session, along with thoughts on what will likely happen next week, some college sports law news and some more economic development announcements for the state that keep the positive momentum from last year rolling right along.
