Section 22-6-191 Legislative intent. The intent of this article is to allow the only PACE provider in the State of Alabama to continue to provide services to nursing home eligible patients as the PACE program provides treatment to patients for fewer federal and state taxpayer dollars than other programs existing in the state. The Legislature declares that this article is broad-based in nature as the assessment herein is imposed on all health care or services in the class of providers and is uniformly imposed across all providers. The Legislature further declares that the entire PACE industry in Alabama exists only in Class 2 municipalities. The Legislature further recognizes that a Class 2 municipality bill is a general bill under the Alabama Constitution. (Act 2014-126, p. 236, §2.)...

Section 23-1-291 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that certain portions of the state highway system provide access to state locales that are notable for their scenic, natural, historic, recreational, cultural, and archaeological value and are therefore worthy of designations as scenic byways in order to provide special consideration of their unique features and special role in the highway system. The Legislature further finds that the public interest would be served by the formation of a coordinated scenic byways program to enhance recreational, cultural, and archaeological resources, encourage economic development through tourism, improve the transportation system, and educate residents and visitors on the history, culture, and natural beauty of this state. In order to implement this program, the Legislature has determined that a two-tiered structure would best serve the governance of the Alabama Scenic Byways program. The Legislature recognizes that the application of this...

41-7A-41
Section 41-7A-41 Legislative findings. The following is hereby found and declared by the Legislature of Alabama: (1) Although Alabama is filled with attractive natural resources, a growing workforce, and other resources attractive to the entertainment industry, Alabama has not developed its potential in terms of attracting the entertainment industry to the state by offering production incentives for qualified productions not previously offered in Alabama. (2) Entertainment industry incentives offered by other states attract valuable projects to their states which stimulate local economies, use local manpower, offer other employment and entrepreneurial opportunities for state residents, and provide public awareness of the natural resources available in their states. (3) Because Alabama does not currently offer a viable incentive package to the industry, Alabama cannot effectively compete with other states for attracting industry projects and those projects locate elsewhere. (4) For...

1-2A-2
Section 1-2A-2 Historical information. The Legislature finds it is appropriate to include within this chapter general history and related information concerning the state flag. The state did not have a flag from 1819 to January 11, 1861, when a resolution was passed designating a flag designed by a group of Montgomery women as the "Republic of Alabama Flag." One side of this flag displayed, under an arch bearing the words "Independent Now and Forever," the Goddess of Liberty holding in her right hand an unsheathed sword and in her left hand a small flag with one star. Displayed on the reverse side of this flag were a large cotton plant in full fruit and flower, a coiled rattlesnake, and the Latin words "Noli Me Tangere" (Touch Me Not) beneath the cotton plant. This flag, which flew for about a month, was removed to the Governor's office on February 10, 1861, apparently suffering damage caused by severe weather. The Republic of Alabama Flag was never flown again. From April 1865 until...
