About Mac McCutcheon
McCutcheon was appointed by Gov. Kay Ivey in January of 2023 after predecessor Dale Strong was elected to Congress.
He began his career in government in 2006, as representative for District 25. In August 2016, he was elected as the 66th Speaker of the Alabama House of Representatives and served in that capacity for six years.
McCutcheon’s contributions to North Alabama have been nothing short of outstanding, with Mayor Tommy Battle lauding his long and industrious career:
“Mac has been an outstanding partner and a driving force behind our community’s success – from his early days in law enforcement to his roles as a civic leader, Speaker of the House in Montgomery, and most recently, Chairman of the Madison County Commission. In every position, he served with character, humility and a genuine commitment to the people he represented.”

His responsibilities as Commission Chairman mostly relate to matters of public infrastructure, including transportation and the onslaught of job creation in Huntsville.
