HUNTSVILLE — The governor will visit the Rocket City today for a pair of events saluting the area.

At noon, Gov. Kay Ivey will deliver the keynote address at the Huntsville/Madison County Chamber’s Alabama Update at the Von Braun Center.

The governor will then go to the U.S. Space and Rocket Center for a ceremonial signing of House Bill 159 around 1:15 p.m.
