The House concurred 96-0 with the Senate's amended legislation. Final approval now rests with Gov. Kay Ivey.

Our state’s infrastructure, for broadband, water and sewer, is where we are looking to allocate the largest sum of ARPA Funds.
Legislature
A couple of Democratic members voiced concerns about the bill Tuesday, but only three Republicans ultimately voted against it.

Money from $1 billion in federal COVID aid may just scratch the surface, organizations say.
Legislature
Only Republican Rep. Arnold Mooney voted against the bill, citing concerns about the way the distribution has been handled.

Almost two-thirds of the money is designated toward water, sewer and broadband. The rest will go toward public health.

Lawmakers emphasized allocating remaining ARPA funds, addressing gaming, and changing the way registrars are handled.
