Transcript of Governor Ivey’s Video Message:
Today we are at war with an invisible enemy.
Not that long ago, families across Alabama helped America turn the tide in World War II.
Some joined the front lines in combat, while others led the fight on the home front.

Now, we must answer today’s call.

But each of us can do our part.
Mask up Alabama!
