Alabama Growth Alliance Bill
This bill establishes the Alabama Growth Alliance, a new public corporation designed to coordinate the state's long-term economic development strategy. The entity will be governed by a board of directors that includes both public officials and private sector leaders to combine public oversight with private expertise. Key provisions require the alliance to support the Department of Commerce in creating annual strategic plans and mandate a biennial review of existing state economic incentives to ensure they effectively create jobs and attract business. By operating as a separate legal entity, the corporation aims to foster collaboration between the public and private sectors to identify strategic gaps and drive sustainable growth in high-priority industries.
