Governor Kay Ivey said “I am proud of the 55 Correctional Officers graduating from the Academy this week and was honored to host them at the Alabama Governor’s Mansion. These men and women have chosen a career of true public service. I reminded them that being a Corrections Officer is highly critical and really important to public safety in our state. Here in Alabama, we strongly back the blue, and that includes our Corrections Officers, and I was proud to personally share that with these officers today.”
