On Tuesday afternoon, the Republican caucus of the Alabama House of Representatives chose Rep. Mac McCutcheon, of Madison County, as the presumptive new Speaker of the House.
Alabama Republican Party Chairman Terry Lathan made the following statement following the GOP House Caucus nomination:
“The Alabama Republican Party looks forward to working with Rep. McCutcheon and supporting our team. This is a time to hit a reset button for Alabama. It’s a moment to move forward and remember that the members are good, hard working men and women who love their state from all walks of life.”
“With the experience of being a farmer, pastor, police officer and military veteran,
Rep. McCutcheon brings a well-rounded background to this position.”
“We ask our Republican elected officials to meet the high standards of expectations our citizens demand. We have faith that they can and will. We encourage our fellow Alabamians to communicate with their state and local officials so your voice is heard.”
“A new day in Alabama begins.”
