Our state’s veterans are in good hands with this high-caliber board of directors. Thank you to all involved in establishing Alabama Veterans Resource Center – it will serve our nation’s finest for years to come. #alpolitics

The strategic investments made this session are already paying dividends to Alabama's economy. Alabama is America's Most Improved State for Business and is well on its way to being the most business-friendly state in the nation.
