HJR 99 Alabama House · 2026 Regular Session

43rd Alabama State Games Opening Ceremony, recognized

This resolution (HJR 99) formally recognizes the 43rd Alabama State Games Opening Ceremony on June 12, 2026, as an "America 250 Alabama-certified event" honoring the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Declaration of Independence. It specifically acknowledges the Alabama State Games' role in celebrating Alabama heroes - including military descendants, Native American contributors, and community leaders - and their historical contributions to the state and nation. The resolution has no policy or funding impact; it is purely a symbolic gesture of legislative support for the ceremonial event. It directly affects the Alabama State Games Foundation (ASF Foundation), which organizes the ceremony and its "Honoring Our Heroes" program. The resolution urges broader community participation but does not create new obligations or changes to law.
