Kay Ivey's 2024 donor list included Alabama Builders PAC and Midsouth Paving
Transparency USA's 2024 Alabama candidate view shows Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama, Alabama Builders PAC, and Midsouth Paving among Kay Ivey's top contributors. Luther S. Pate IV appears at the top of the same contributor view.
The same Alabama Builders PAC page lists Morgan Stanley and Caddell Construction among its major contributors and shows Kay Ivey among the committee's payees. The campaign-finance record already links the governor to builders, insurers, finance, and paving money.
Ivey's 2024 disclosure listed Morgan Stanley and other finance names
Alabama's ethics search returns five public Statements of Economic Interests for Kay Ellen Ivey covering 2020 through 2024. Her 2024 filing lists State of Alabama, ServisFirst Bank, Empower Trust Company, Morgan Stanley, Hunting Leases, Social Security, Kay Ivey Blind Trust, Weyerhouser, and Community Neighbor Bank in the income-related section.
Morgan Stanley is the clearest overlap. It appears in Alabama Builders PAC's contributor list and in Ivey's own disclosure.
Ivey's August 2024 appointments put Alabama Power and Webb Concrete over a workforce board
Ivey's August 2024 release on the newly established Alabama Workforce Board named Alabama Power CEO Jeff Peoples to chair the Executive Committee and Webb Concrete CEO Phil Webb to chair the Alabama Workforce Board.
The same release says the Executive Committee will provide an annual budget recommendation and an annual plan to coordinate workforce programs with education and economic-development systems, including state and federal funding.
An ALDOT award put Midsouth Paving into the contract record
ALDOT's August 5, 2022 notice for Ross Clark Circle Phase III says the department awarded the project to Midsouth Paving, Inc. Of Birmingham for $42.5 million.
Midsouth Paving is also listed among Kay Ivey's top contributors in the 2024 candidate view.
The state single audit kept ALDOT under scrutiny
Alabama's single audit report 24-475 says the Department of Transportation reimbursed a subrecipient for expenses based on altered documents, producing questioned costs of $94,123.56 in finding 2023-004.
The report says nine of ten supporting documents submitted for meeting-expense reimbursement during the audit period were altered and were not true and accurate.
