HJR 167 Alabama House · 2025 Regular Session

Urging Governor Ivey to follow through on discussions with Sarah Collins Rudolph and her attorneys

This resolution urges Alabama Governor Kay Ivey to fulfill a 2019 promise to discuss the 1963 16th Street Baptist Church bombing's impact with survivor Sarah Collins Rudolph and her attorneys. It references the bombing that killed four girls and left Rudolph (then 12) permanently injured, including losing sight in one eye and her sister. The resolution states Governor Ivey apologized in 2019 and pledged to begin discussions, but six years later, Rudolph has not received further engagement from the state. The bill is a non-binding legislative request for the Governor to honor that commitment.
