Section 6-12-1 Legislative findings. The Legislature of Alabama finds as follows: (1) Cigarette
smoking presents serious public health concerns to the state and to the citizens of the state.
The Surgeon General has determined that smoking causes lung cancer, heart disease, and other
serious diseases, and that there are hundreds of thousands of tobacco-related deaths in the
United States each year. These diseases most often do not appear until many years after the
person in question begins smoking. (2) Cigarette smoking also presents serious financial concerns
for the state. Under certain health care programs, the state may have a legal obligation to
provide medical assistance to eligible persons for health conditions associated with cigarette
smoking, and those persons may have a legal entitlement to receive such medical assistance.
(3) Under these programs, the state pays millions of dollars each year to provide medical
assistance for these persons for health conditions associated...

Section 27-54-1 Legislative intent; public policy. (a) The Legislature finds the following:
(1) Mental illness affects many citizens of this state each year, resulting in anguish, grief,
desperation, fear, isolation, and a sense of hopelessness of significant levels among victims
and families. (2) Consequences of mental illness include the significant expenditures of public
operating funds for treatment and losses of millions of dollars by businesses in the state
in accidents, absenteeism, nonproductivity, and turnover. Excessive stress and anxiety and
other forms of mental illness clearly contribute to general health problems and costs. (3)
Typical health coverage in this state by some insurers provides individuals and affected families
of mental illness with nonexistent or limited benefits compared to provisions for other illnesses.
(4) Experience in this state and several other states demonstrates that the risk of mental
illness can be insured at reasonable additional cost, provided...
