Legislature finds and declares the following: (1) The citizens of this state rely upon health

22-4B-2
Section 22-4B-2 Legislative intent. The Legislature of Alabama finds that there exists a critical
shortage of registered nurses who are willing and able to provide health care to citizens
in rural areas of Alabama. Such shortage is particularly acute in rural areas, and has a negative
impact on the availability of care to low income and indigent citizens of Alabama who reside
in rural areas. The Legislature further finds that there are many dedicated employees of the
Alabama Department of Public Health who are disqualified from training as registered nurses
solely by reason of their inability to finance the cost of attending school to obtain the
requisite degree. Such employees are also prevented or retarded in career advancement because
of a lack of education. It is the intent of the Legislature in adopting this chapter to address
the nursing shortage in county health departments and in federally-funded community health
centers in rural areas and to provide opportunities for career...

36-36-1
Section 36-36-1 Legislative findings. The Legislature of Alabama hereby finds and determines
that the funding of accrued and accruing health care benefits to retired employees and their
dependents is a proper governmental function and purpose of the state. The Governmental Accounting
Standards Board has issued Statements 43 and 45, which set forth standards on accounting and
reporting for post-employment benefits other than pensions by governments. The new standards
will require the state to account for such post-employment benefits on an actuarial basis
during an employee's career rather than on a pay-as-you-go basis during the employee's period
of retirement. The Legislature has determined that it would be advisable for the state to
create irrevocable trusts whereby the state may begin funding those benefits in advance to
address and ultimately offset the state's accrued liabilities for such benefits. Therefore,
the state, the State Employees' Insurance Board, and the Public...
