Section 41-10-720 Legislative findings. The Legislature makes the following findings: (1) At any given time, the level of activity in our construction industry is a primary yardstick for measuring the overall economic health of this country and this state, and that the success and stability of the building, manufacturing, and commercial businesses are dependent upon a sufficient supply of skilled artisans and craft persons who can produce quality products that inspire public confidence.

Section 26-23B-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature makes all of the following findings: (1) Pain receptors (nociceptors) are present throughout the unborn child's entire body by no later than 16 weeks after fertilization and nerves link these receptors to the brain's thalamus and subcortical plate by no later than 20 weeks.
