Section 40-2B-2 Alabama Tax Tribunal. (a) Statement of Purpose. To increase public confidence
in the fairness of the state tax system, the state shall provide an independent agency with
tax expertise to resolve disputes between the Department of Revenue and taxpayers, prior to
requiring the payment of the amounts in issue or the posting of a bond, but after the taxpayer
has had a full opportunity to attempt settlement with the Department of Revenue based, among
other things, on the hazards of litigation. By establishing an independent Alabama Tax Tribunal
within the executive branch of government, this chapter provides taxpayers with a means of
resolving controversies that insures both the appearance and the reality of due process and

Section 36-18-50 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds, determines, and declares the
following: (1) Driving a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance
continues to be a major problem on the highways of our state and causes the death or injury
of thousands of our citizens each year. (2) The Legislature should use whatever authority
is available to it to discourage driving a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or
a controlled substance, including the levying of fines therefor at a level which will discourage
such activity. (3) Administering and implementing a quality chemical testing program for alcohol
and controlled substances is costly for the taxpayers and thus the convicted offender should
bear a greater portion of the financial burden of the chemical testing program at the state
and local level. (4) The chemical breath testing program conducted by this state has reduced
the number of deaths and injuries, and the program continues to be...
