The 2026 Shroud Award
HR 362 is a procedural resolution that formally designates Representative Mike Kirkland as the recipient of the 2026 Shroud Award. This award is a satirical honor given to the member who introduced the most controversial or poorly received legislation in the current session, in this case HB 583, the Alabama Work Zone Safety Act. The bill does not create any new laws or policy changes; instead, it serves as a ceremonial recognition of the legislative history and debate surrounding the work zone safety bill.
