Last update: 2 hours agoRedistricting Ruling: The U.S. Supreme Court cleared Alabama to use its 2023 GOP congressional map for the 2026 elections, pausing a lower-court finding that the plan intentionally discriminated against Black voters—an outcome that could shift Alabama’s House delegation toward a 6-1 GOP tilt and set up an Aug. 11 special primary for affected districts. College Sports Policy: The Big Ten and SEC said they don’t support the Protect College Sports Act as written, citing unresolved issues and warning it could expand litigation instead of stabilizing rules for NIL and the transfer portal. UAB Sports Radio: UAB Athletics and Cumulus Media extended the “JOX Radio” deal for three years, keeping WJOX-FM as the flagship for football and WJQX-FM for men’s basketball through 2028-29. Engineering Win: Alabama A&M civil engineering students took first place in the ASCE Gulf Coast Mystery Competition, earning top honors for a fast, creative design challenge. Local Economy/Jobs: Huntsville posted a 2.1% unemployment rate in April, among the lowest in Alabama, as the region’s aerospace, defense, tech, and manufacturing base keeps labor markets tight.
