Despite rumors, the Governor's Office says Bentley has no plans to resign
MONTGOMERY — The Governor’s Office on Monday pushed back against rumors that Gov. Robert Bentley will resign in April before any impeachment vote can happen in the Alabama House of Representatives.
A spokesperson from the Governor’s Office said Bentley has no plans to resign.
“Governor Bentley takes very seriously his call to serve as Alabama’s 53rd Governor, and considers it the greatest honor of his life,” his spokesperson, Yasamie August, said. “He has plans only to continue to serve the people of this state, and as he stated so clearly in his 2017 State of the State address, to ‘Finish the Race.'”
Reports from AL.com and Dothan station WTVY, which cited Rep. Ed Henry, R-Hartselle, were widely shared Monday. In an interview with WTVY, Henry said he expected Bentley would resign no later than next month to avoid a suspension from an impeachment delivered to the Senate.
