SB 103 Alabama Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Sunset law; Alabama Construction Recruitment Institute continued with modification until October 1, 2028

SB 103 extends the operation of the Alabama Construction Recruitment Institute until October 1, 2028, instead of its original sunset date. It requires the Institute, the Alabama Department of Workforce, and other stakeholders to evaluate how the Institute can better use the Department’s administrative and operational resources. This collaboration must produce a report by the 2027 legislative session, detailing options for shared services. The bill preserves the Institute’s existing legal authority under Alabama Code § 41-10-720 to § 41-10-732.

MINOR
The bill was finalized from its engrossed version to the enrolled version, which is the final text signed into law. The substantive policy content regarding the continuation of the Alabama Construction Recruitment Institute and the requirement to evaluate administrative options remained unchanged. The primary differences are technical formatting updates, such as correcting a bill identifier number, and the addition of official certification signatures from the Senate Secretary and House leadership to confirm the bill's passage.
