Legislature, committee appointed to escort Governor to joint session
This is a procedural resolution (SJR 3), not a substantive bill. It schedules a joint session of Alabama's legislature for 6:00 p.m. on January 13, 2026, to hear Governor Kay Ivey's message. It appoints a committee of three senators (named by the Senate Presiding Officer) and three representatives (named by the House Speaker) to escort the Governor to the session. The resolution only outlines the logistical arrangements for this specific ceremonial event.
