Section 22-4-31 Legislative findings. The Legislature does hereby set out the following findings
and reasons for passage of this article. Alabama has adopted a system of health planning and

for informed statewide health planning. The...

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.
