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.

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 45-30-102 Election of superintendent. (a) The Legislature finds that Amendment 578 to the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, was approved by an overwhelming majority of the voters of Franklin County and the Franklin County School District at the election held for that purpose.
