Section 37-6-3 Enumerated powers. A cooperative shall have the power: (1) To sue and be sued
in its corporate name. (2) To adopt a corporate seal and alter the same at its pleasure. (3)
To generate, manufacture, purchase, acquire and transmit electric energy and to distribute,
sell, supply and dispose of electric energy to its members, to governmental agencies and political
subdivisions and to other persons; provided, however, that should a cooperative acquire any
electric facilities dedicated or devoted to the public use, it may continue to serve the persons
served directly from such facilities at the time of such acquisition without requiring that
such persons become members, and, provided further, that such nonmembers shall have the right
to become members upon nondiscriminatory terms. Cooperatives may not condition membership
or provision of service on compliance by the member with requirements not directly related
to the electric or other service to be provided by the cooperative....

Section 16-33A-2 Legislative findings; purpose of chapter. The Legislature declares that there
exists within the State of Alabama a number of accredited independent colleges and universities
whose facilities could be used more effectively in the public interest by the grant of financial
assistance to residents of the state who choose to attend such colleges and universities,
in order to pay a portion of such residents' institutional related expenses at such colleges
and universities, thereby reducing the cost to taxpayers of the state below the cost of providing
similar instruction to such residents at institutions of higher learning within the state
higher education system. The Legislature finds and declares that there is an apparent need
to narrow the gap in student charges between public universities and colleges and independent
institutions of higher education in Alabama in order to provide students with true economic
and academic freedom of choice in selecting a college; and to...

Section 18-4-3 Legislative intent. (a) The Legislature declares that this chapter shall be
applicable only to the acquisition of real property owned and occupied by the owner as a residence
by any state agency for use in projects or programs in which federal or state funds are used;
except that for the purposes of this chapter, federal guarantees or insurance shall not be
deemed to be federal funds. This chapter shall not apply to acquisitions by a state agency
which are voluntarily initiated or negotiated by the seller under no threat of condemnation.
(b) The Legislature further declares the following: (1) The purpose of this chapter is to
establish a uniform policy for the fair and equitable treatment of persons displaced from
their residences as a result of programs or projects involving the acquisition of real property
by any state agency. In order that the persons shall not suffer disproportionate injuries
as a result of programs designed for the benefit of the public as a whole,...

Section 27-26-2 Purpose of chapter. It is hereby declared by the Legislature of the State of
Alabama that the availability of medical liability insurance at reasonable rates for the medical
profession, medical institutions, and other health care providers is essential to provide
adequate health services to the people of Alabama, and without such insurance, medical services
by the medical profession may be curtailed, and that while the need for such insurance is
increasing, availability is limited and likely to become increasingly so, unless remedial
legislation is enacted. The Legislature further finds and declares that by reason of complicated
and highly technical medical concepts, and the existence of sophisticated medical techniques,
decisions with respect to optional procedures of diagnosis and treatment have become increasingly
complex and are necessarily made on the basis of professional judgment, on which opinions
may and often will reasonably vary. It is the purpose of this...

Section 27-10-50 Purpose. The purpose of this article is to subject certain insurers to the
jurisdiction of courts of this state in actions by, or on behalf of, insureds or beneficiaries
under insurance contracts. The Legislature declares that it is a subject of concern that many
residents of this state hold policies of insurance issued or delivered in this state by insurers
while not authorized to do business in this state, thus presenting to such residents the often
insuperable obstacle of resorting to distant forums for the purpose of asserting legal rights
under such policies. In furtherance of such state interest, the Legislature provides in this
article a method of substituted service of process upon such insurers and declares that in
so doing it exercises its power to protect its residents and to define, for the purpose of
this article, what constitutes doing business in this state and also exercises powers and
privileges available to the state by virtue of the federal Insurance...

Section 9-14A-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature hereby finds and declares that it is
necessary, desirable and in the public interest that the state parks system, public historical
sites, and public historical parks be maintained and improved. It is the intention of the
Legislature by the passage of this chapter to authorize the formation of two public corporations
for the purposes of providing for the acquisition, provision, construction, improvement, renovation,
equipping, and maintenance of the state parks system, public historical sites, and public
historical parks, and to authorize the corporations to provide for payment of the costs of
accomplishing the stated purposes by implementing Amendment 617 to the Constitution of Alabama
of 1901 authorizing the issuance by the state of up to $110,000,000 in aggregate principal
amount of general obligation bonds, which amendment was proposed by Act 98-413 and ratified
by the electors of the state at the 1998 General Election, and by...

Section 22-6-233 Legislative findings; certification of collaborators; powers of Medicaid Agency;
state action immunity. (a) The Legislature declares that collaboration among public payers,
private health carriers, third party purchasers, and providers to identify appropriate service
delivery systems and reimbursement methods in order to align incentives in support of integrated
and coordinated health care delivery is in the best interest of the public. Collaboration
pursuant to this article is to provide quality health care at the lowest possible cost to
Alabama citizens who are Medicaid eligible. The Legislature, therefore, declares that this
health care delivery system affirmatively contemplates the foreseeable displacement of competition,
such that any anti-competitive effect may be attributed to the state's policy to displace
competition in the delivery of a coordinated system of health care for the public benefit.
In furtherance of this goal, the Legislature declares its intent...
