Section 41-7A-41 Legislative findings. The following is hereby found and declared by the Legislature of Alabama: (1) Although Alabama is filled with attractive natural resources, a growing workforce, and other resources attractive to the entertainment industry, Alabama has not developed its potential in terms of attracting the entertainment industry to the state by offering production incentives for qualified productions not previously offered in Alabama.
