Joint Session on April 2, 2026, Law Enforcement Medal of Honor
HJR 89 is a procedural resolution calling for a joint session of the Alabama legislature on April 2, 2026, to present the Legislative Medal of Honor for Law Enforcement. It directly affects law enforcement officers who will receive this ceremonial award during the session. The resolution specifies the time (11:00 a.m.) and location (House Chamber) for the event but does not establish new policies or criteria for the medal. This is a purely administrative measure to schedule a recognition ceremony, not a substantive law.
