Gov. Kay Ivey responds to criticism after 'Last Week Tonight with John Oliver' segment on Alabama's law criminalizing some medical treatments for transgender minors.

Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey spoke to the Birmingham Business Alliance at The Club on Monday, April 18, 2022. Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey responded to criticism from late night host John Oliver Monday, saying she’s not bothered by critiques from a “liberal, Hollywood-friendly agenda.”

“I can assure you that the people of Alabama want nothing to do with Mr. Oliver’s liberal, Hollywood-friendly agenda,” Ivey said,. “We’re going to continue to focus on helping our young people become the adults God intended them to be, and if that offends you, John, I don’t care.” The “Last Week Tonight” had two segments about Alabama Sunday -- about the state’s utility companies and about new LGBTQ legislation, signed by Ivey in April, that criminalizes healthcare providers who offer gender-affirming care to transgender minors.

Also, everyone that calls you out GovernorKayIvey isn't part of some liberal blah blah agenda. Most of the time they just want you to actually give answers for your horrible, corrupt, agenda against your fellow Alabamians.

I can assure you kayiveyforgov GovernorKayIvey that many people in Alabama want nothing to do with your hate filled rhetoric. We don't want you passing laws based on your religion. We would like to know where that $2mil came from and why you refuse to debate.

Who’s God? Which God? Obviously she created a law based on her own religions beliefs. The Constituion the GQP loves to hate, specifically separates Church & State. Not to even mention she claims to know God’s intentions. Who the f knows that? Is she saying she’s God’s prophet?

kayiveyforgov I'm 100% for John Oliver's liberal, Hollywood agenda, which is why I'll never vote for you or any other Republican endorsed by 45.

Truth hurts

.GovernorKayIvey It's not a 'liberal, Hollywood agenda' to think your transphobic law is cruel and harmful to kids and families. Many of us from Alabama also think that! GOPHatesKids

Minors are gonna turn out who they want to be whether Miss Governor Ivey wants to be or not! Her liberal Hollywood hatred is old news!

ridiculous and hateful law, it needs to go and if she’s all for it then so does Kay Ivey

I hope she said more than those words. Please tell me she had something thoughtful to say

She, like many, fears the consequences of articulating an independent opinion.

Right on Kay keep up the good work the VAST majority of Alabama Thanks you.

The decisions between a doctor and a patient are a liberal Hollywood agenda?

She deserved to hear every word of it.

Actually she’s spot on with the response. Makes me wonder if she actually responded or if a staff member told her what to say.

I'm glad someone spoke loud enough for her to hear, since she turns deaf around state citizens.

Does this really qualify as 'hits back?' Good Lord.

Someday, hopefully while I'm still alive, this state will take a couple of steps forward. Getting people like her out of office would go a long way to realizing that.

Here you go memaw, now calm down and read some Jesus.

She won't debate for her job but responds to righteous criticism? Time to retire!

Oliver is right.

Ham, y'all....

White supremacy, conservative agenda is much much worse.

LiBeRaL hOlLyWoOd AgEnDa Uh huh, well decent people aren’t cool with you attacking a small segment of the population as your scapegoat since we have appalling statistics all over the board.

But look her she’s ultra maga tough.

Ivey got triggered.

Ivey is absolutely appalling.
