MONTGOMERY, Ala. – On Wednesday, Governor Kay Ivey signed Executive Order 3 dissolved 20 “committees, commissions, councils, task forces, and other such entities” established through 18 Bentley administration Executive Orders.

“I believe strongly that my role is to make decisions and lead, not kick the can down the road,” Gov. Ivey said. “I am choosing to tackle some of the issues that have previously been sent before a task force.”

The list:

Alabama Advisory Council on Gaming
Alabama Commission on Improving State Government
Alabama Consumer Credit Task Force
Alabama Economic Development Alliance
Alabama Forest Recovery Task Force
Alabama Health Care Improvement Task Force
Alabama Health Insurance Exchange Study Commission
Alabama Human Resources Task Force
Alabama Industrial Energy Advisory Team
Alabama Medicaid Pharmacy Study Commission
Alabama Small Business Advisory Council
Alabama Small Business Commission
Alabama Solid Waste Management Task Force
Governor’s Coastal Insurance Commission
Governor’s College and Career Ready Task Force
Grocery Tax Task Force
Health Literacy Partnership of Alabama
Integrated State Law Enforcement Task Force
Law Enforcement Stakeholder Advisory Task Force
Tax Exemption Advisory

The text of the Executive Order, attested by Secretary of State John Merrill, is here.

“I will work closely with members of the legislature in the days ahead to address the very important issues facing our state,” the Governor added. “Since the first day I took office, I have been committed to efficiency in government, cutting bureaucratic red-tape, and saving tax-payer resources; removing these groups, many of which have either completed their work or have become inactive, is just a part of that process.”
