Section 25-11-2 Legislative findings and intent. The Legislature finds that individuals need
to take more personal responsibility for their actions. The Legislature further finds that
certain individuals are not meeting their legal child support obligations. It is the express
intent of the Legislature that individuals with legal child support obligations be located
and required to take financial responsibility for their children by paying these child support
obligations. A "new hire" reporting procedure shall require employers to obtain
certain information from newly hired, recalled, or rehired individuals. This information shall
be reported to the Department of Labor which shall form a State Directory of New Hires and
the information shall be used by the Department of Human Resources to cross-match these individuals
with individuals having outstanding legal child support obligations. The Legislature further
finds that there are certain individuals being overpaid unemployment...

Section 38-12-31 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds and declares the following: (1)
There exists in this state a number of children who cannot reside with their parents, legal
guardians, or legal custodians because of such parents', legal guardians', or custodians'
incapacity or inability to perform the regular and expected functions of care and support
of the children and family care and who thereby come to the attention of juvenile court and
into the care and custody of the Department of Human Resources. (2) An increasing number of
relatives, including grandparents, find themselves wanting to provide care to related foster
children on a long-term basis to prevent the children from remaining in foster care with unrelated
caregivers yet these relatives are either unable or unwilling to seek termination of the legal
relationships between the parent and the child, particularly when it is the caregiver's own
child or sibling who is the parent. (3) It is in the public interest to...

Section 41-10-350 Legislative findings and purpose. The Legislature hereby finds and declares
that it is necessary, desirable and in the public interest that additional facilities be made
available in this state for mental health purposes. It is the intention of the Legislature
by the passage of this article to authorize the formation of a public corporation for the
purpose of providing for the acquisition, construction, improvement and equipment of the mental
health facilities (including improvements to existing facilities), and to authorize the said
corporation, in order to provide for payment of the costs of the said facilities, to anticipate
the proceeds of that portion of a special state tax (originally levied by Act No. 275, adopted
at the 1967 Regular Session of the Legislature of Alabama), that was levied for mental health
purposes by the issuance of the bonds of the said corporation payable solely from the proceeds
of the said tax. (Acts 1988, No. 88-475, p. 739, §1.)...

Section 41-23-20 Short title; legislative findings and purpose. This article shall be cited
as the "Alabama Enterprise Zone Act." The Legislature of Alabama hereby finds and
declares that the health, safety, and welfare of the people of this state are dependent upon
the continued encouragement, development, growth, and expansion of the private sector within

state and local tax and nontax incentives in these areas. (Acts 1987, No. 87-573, p. 897,

Section 41-9-338.1 Legislative findings - Helen Keller. The Legislature find as follows as
to Helen Keller: (1) Helen Keller was born in Tuscumbia and, at age nineteen months, contracted
an illness which left her deaf and blind. (2) How Helen Keller learned to communicate is a
quintessential story of overcoming adversity and is inspirational to many people in Alabama,
the United States, and the world. (3) A statue of Helen Keller is in the National Statuary
Hall Collection as one of two statues representing Alabama since 2009, making hers one of
only nine statues in the collection representing women. (4) That a commemorative statue to
honor Helen Keller would be a worthy addition to the grounds of the Alabama State Capitol,
and the Legislature supports the inclusion of such a statue in a place where it will be readily
accessible to, and touchable by, disabled persons. (Act 2019-178, §2.)...

5-27-1
Section 5-27-1 (Effective January 1, 2018) Legislative findings. The Legislature finds and
declares the following: (1) Federal law allows both depository financial institutions and
credit unions to hold savings promotion contests, subject to certain conditions and authorization
under state law. (2) Savings promotion contests in other states and countries have led to
an increase in the number and amount of funds in personal savings accounts. (3) Savings promotion
contests encourage people to save money by adding a feature to personal savings accounts that
includes a chance to win prizes. (4) Savings promotion contests are not lotteries because
they do not require individuals to pay consideration for a chance to win a prize, and the
individual maintains ownership of the money that is deposited into a savings account or other
qualifying account. (5) The prizes are funded through the interest that accrues across the
pool of savings accounts participating in the promotion contest. (6) It is...

Section 11-32-1 Legislative findings. (a) The Legislature finds, determines, and hereby declares
that, in counties having a population of not less than 600,000, there are conditions present
that are not present in counties with lesser populations. Those conditions include, but are
not limited to, the following: (1) The excessive growth in private vehicular traffic in the
counties is placing excessive burdens upon the road systems and parking facilities, especially
in commercial and industrial districts and in areas of high population density, which cannot
be alleviated by private vehicular traffic. (2) The number of vehicular miles the average
citizen of those counties travels per day is among the highest nationally in terms of miles
and commuting times. (3) The projected continued economic growth of the counties and the general
health and welfare of the citizens of the counties require those counties to provide the enhanced
availability of public transportation facilities, operations,...

Section 11-47-14.1 Construction of port facilities by Class 1 municipalities; bonds and other
contributions. (a) Legislative findings. The Legislature of Alabama finds that the Tombigbee
Waterway will soon be completed, and the transportation opportunities afforded thereby must
be fully utilized if Alabama is to benefit from economic growth and job development potential
afforded by this project, and that local governments need broader authorization to participate
in the development of river port facilities necessary to accomplish this purpose. (b) Municipalities
authorized to construct port facilities; limitations thereon. The council or other governing
body of any Class 1 municipality may alter and change the channel of any watercourse within
25 miles of such municipality and may construct and maintain wharves and construct buildings
and other improvements on and near wharves and wharf sites, within such municipality or within
