Monday marked the kick off Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey’s second full term in office with an inauguration and parade attended by several hundred invited guests and onlookers.
With five fabric panels hung from the building’s façade to create the backdrop of a large state flag, Ivey and other state constitutional officers walked down the marble steps of the Capitol, looked out on historic Dexter Avenue and pledged their oaths to defend the state and national constitutions during their new terms in office.
“Standing here four years ago, I could’ve never imagined what was to come,” she said as she told the crowd how fortunate Alabamians are to call the state home. The light in the wake of last week’s deadly tornadoes was Alabamians’ love for each other, she said even as“We all want Alabama to be the best place to live,” Ivey explained. “We want our people working and we want our children to get the best education.
The governor touched on the state’s record low unemployment, promising to cut business regulations by 25% over the next two years. She spoke of building new prisons, implementing criminal justice reforms and touted the 61,000 homes and businesses that have added access to broadband internet.
