31-13-2
Section 31-13-2 Legislative findings. The State of Alabama finds that illegal immigration
is causing economic hardship and lawlessness in this state and that illegal immigration is
encouraged when public agencies within this state provide public benefits without verifying
immigration status. Because the costs incurred by school districts for the public elementary
and secondary education of children who are aliens not lawfully present in the United States
can adversely affect the availability of public education resources to students who are United
States citizens or are aliens lawfully present in the United States, the State of Alabama
determines that there is a compelling need for the State Board of Education to accurately
measure and assess the population of students who are aliens not lawfully present in the United
States, in order to forecast and plan for any impact that the presence such population may
have on publicly funded education in this state. The State of Alabama further...

Section 16-61C-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature of the State of Alabama hereby
finds: (1) That the Alabama Science in Motion Program (the ASIM Program) of six pilot networks,
created by Act No. 94-673, to augment the science curriculum of the public schools, have demonstrated
efficacy as a model in advancing the state's efforts towards the following goals and directives

that special attention be given to science in the Alabama Course of Study. (3) That the State
Board of Education provide "a plan for the cooperative development and execution of research,
demonstration, evaluation and dissemination of activities related to the effective use of
technologies in teaching and learning"; and that these activities be carried out in cooperation
with the existing Alabama Regional Inservice Centers and local school...

the following findings and declarations: (1) The soils, water, and air of this state constitute
unique and delicately balanced resources. (2) The protection of these resources is vital to
the economy of this state. (3) The preservation of waters of this state is a matter of the
highest urgency and priority as these waters provide a primary source of potable water in

use accommodations necessary to provide the broadest possible promotion of public and private
interests. (b) The Legislature makes the following additional findings: (1) Where contamination

Section 20-2-210 Legislative findings. The Alabama Legislature hereby finds that the
diversion, abuse, and misuse of prescription medications classified as controlled substances
under the Alabama Uniform Controlled Substances Act constitutes a serious threat to the health
and welfare of the citizens of the State of Alabama. The Legislature further finds that establishment
of a controlled substances prescription database to monitor the prescribing and dispensing
of controlled substances will materially assist state regulators and practitioners authorized
to prescribe and dispense controlled substances in the prevention of diversion, abuse, and
misuse of controlled substances prescription medication through the provision of education
and information, early intervention, and prevention of diversion, and investigation and enforcement
of existing laws governing the use of controlled substances. (Act 2004-443, p. 781, §1.)...

22-2A-1
Section 22-2A-1 Legislative findings. The Legislature of Alabama finds that the high
cost of pharmaceuticals is a matter of much concern to this state, especially as the cost
and utilization of drug therapy continues to rise. Insofar as this rise represents a trend
towards drug therapy in lieu of more invasive and expensive procedures, it represents a positive
change. At the same time, increasing drug costs can effectively prevent large numbers of patients
from accessing vital medication. The solution to this problem should be market-based. This
legislation attempts such a solution by (1) consolidating the state's buying power in the
pharmaceutical market, and (2) authorizing the State Health Officer to negotiate rebates and
discounts from pharmaceutical manufacturers. The result should be better prices for agencies
and departments of the State of Alabama and better access to life-saving drugs for clients,
by law, they are mandated to serve. (Act 2002-494, p. 1262, §1.)...

26-23H-2
Section 26-23H-2 Legislative Findings. (a) This state's statute criminalizing abortion,
Section 13A-13-7, has never been repealed. It has remained unenforceable as a result
of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973) and its progeny, which
struck down as unconstitutional a Texas statute criminalizing abortion and which effectively
repealed by implication and made unenforceable all other state statutes criminalizing abortion.
(b) On November 6, 2018, electors in this state approved by a majority vote a constitutional
amendment to the Constitution of Alabama of 1901 declaring and affirming the public policy
of the state to recognize and support the sanctity of unborn life and the rights of unborn
children. The amendment made it clear that the Constitution of Alabama of 1901 does not include
a right to an abortion or require the funding of abortions using public funds. (c) In present
state law, Section 13A-6-1 defines a person for homicide purposes to include an...

40-18-370.1
Section 40-18-370.1 Legislative findings as to enhancement of Alabama Jobs Act. The
Legislature finds as follows: (a) While Alabama's incentive programs have succeeded in growing
industry in the more populated parts of the state, Alabama's rural and low growth communities
have not enjoyed the same rates of success. (b) Alabama's incentives grew out of a need to
attract heavy industry to the state. Now, Alabama must also prepare for the future by attracting
and retaining high-tech companies, and preparing and retaining a workforce trained for such
jobs. (c) New tools must be brought to bear to solve Alabama's rural, low growth, and high-tech
deficits. (d) It is a public purpose to expand Alabama's incentives laws to attract and retain
companies in rural and low growth areas in Alabama, and high-tech companies and workers throughout
the state. The tools used in Act 2019-392 are urgently needed to solve these problems. (e)
The Legislature finds that the enhancements to the Alabama Jobs...

41-17A-1
Section 41-17A-1 Legislative findings. (a) The Legislature of Alabama makes the following
findings and statements: (1) Energy use associated with the operation of state motor vehicle
fleets exacerbates local air quality problems and results in greenhouse gas emissions that
contribute to global climate change. (2) Agencies and departments of state government have
a significant role to play in improving local air quality and reducing greenhouse gas emissions
by improving the energy efficiency of their fleets and reducing emissions from fleet operations.
(3) Improving the energy efficiency of state fleets will result in a significant monetary
savings in the long term. (b) The Legislature expresses its intent as follows: (1) To express
its power as a participant in the marketplace to ensure that purchases and expenditures of

reducing Alabama's water pollution of hazardous waste oil, reducing the...
