Governor Kay Ivey extended the state of emergency in Alabama for another 14 days, keeping it in effect until October 28, 2026, as recovery efforts continue following Hurricane Isaias. During this period, the governor's office is working with the IRS to seek potential federal tax relief for affected residents. Separately, Kay Ivey rescinded the mandatory evacuation proclamations for certain parts of Baldwin County and Mobile County.
