As the United States of America approaches its 250th birthday, Governor Kay Ivey proclaimed Wednesday, Nov. 5 through Tuesday, Nov. 11, 2025, as Veterans Week in the state of Alabama, “honoring the more than 400,000 veterans who call the state home and reaffirming Alabama’s unwavering commitment to supporting those who served,” Ivey’s release shared.

“Our veterans represent the very best of America, and here in Alabama, we are proud to stand firmly behind them. We have worked and fought hard to ensure our state remains the most veteran-friendly state in the nation,” said Gov. Ivey. “As the daughter of a World War II veteran, this mission is deeply personal to me, just as it is to so many Alabama families whose love of country runs deep.”
