Section 6-5-751 Legislative findings and objectives. (a) The Legislature finds that the recruitment,
establishment, development, and growth of the commercial aviation aircraft manufacturing industry
in the State of Alabama is important to the economic health of the state and its agencies
and institutions and to the general health, welfare, and prosperity of its citizens. The Legislature

with the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, and this state's public policy. The Legislature
