26-23C-2
Section 26-23C-2 Legislative findings. (a) The Legislature of the State of Alabama finds
all of the following: (1) Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, P.L. 111-148,
federal tax dollars, via affordability credits, subsidies provided to individuals between
150-400 percent of the federal poverty level, are routed to exchange participating health
insurance plans, including plans that provide coverage for abortions. (2) Federal funding
of insurance plans that provide abortions is an unprecedented change in federal abortion funding
policy. The Hyde Amendment, as passed each year in the Labor Health and Human Services Appropriations
bill, and the Federal Employee Health Benefits Program, FEHBP, prohibit federal funds from
subsidizing health insurance plans that provide abortions. Under this new law, however, exchange
participating health insurance plans that provide abortions can receive federal funds. (3)
The provision of federal funding for health insurance plans that...

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...
