ACCA COUNTY DAYS

As an important part of our effort to ensure the Alabama Legislature is constantly hearing“ 67 Counties, One Voice”, we will once again be hosting County Days during the 2017 Legislative Session. Each county has been assigned one day to come to Montgomery and“ walk the halls” to help make sure all your legislators are aware of – and supporting – the interests of county government when considering legislation. The schedule has been designed to provide for all regions of the state to be represented on each of the six designated days. Representation from each county on its day will be key to the success of this effort. All county commissioners and all key staff are encouraged to participate and join us at the Statehouse on your day.
The schedule for each County Day is set out below-- and should not require an overnight stay. More details will be distributed as each County Day draws near, but please get this date on your calendar and make plans now to participate in this important event.
