Section 22-30-2 Legislative findings; purpose and intent of chapter. The Legislature finds
that the generation and management of hazardous waste is a continuing problem. Further, that
without adequate safeguards, the generation, transportation, treatment, storage and disposal
of such wastes can create conditions which threaten human health or the environment. The Legislature,
therefore, declares that in order to minimize and control any such hazardous conditions, it
is in the public interest to establish and to maintain a statewide program, administered by
the Alabama Department of Environmental Management, to provide for the safe management of
hazardous wastes. It is the intent of the Legislature that the Alabama Department of Environmental
Management seek and retain authorization to operate the State Hazardous Waste Management Program.
It is also the intent of the Legislature that the rules, regulations, guidelines and criteria
promulgated under authority of this chapter encourage...

Section 23-8-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds all of the following: (a) That consistent
with the constitutional mandate that navigable waterways are public highways, the Legislature

used for marine purposes to propel vessels on coastal and inland waterways of this state.

Section 25-14-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds and declares the following: (1)
That employee leasing is a growing industry in the State of Alabama and that professional
employer organizations provide increased opportunities for employers to develop cost-effective
methods of satisfying their personnel requirements and providing employees with access to
certain employment benefits which might otherwise not be available to them. (2) The Legislature
deems it necessary, however, in the interest of the welfare of workers and employers to establish
standards for the operation, regulation, and registration of professional employer organizations
in Alabama to be administered by the Workers' Compensation Division of the Department of Labor,
and it is the intent of the Legislature that this be accomplished pursuant to the Alabama
Professional Employer Organization Registration Act. (3) That any allocation of the employer
duties and responsibilities pursuant to this chapter will...

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...

which reduce the hardships of old age, poor health or poverty. (3) To promote the marketability,
yield or quality of Alabama-produced agricultural commodities. (4) To promote the preservation,

29-5A-25
Section 29-5A-25 References to individuals with disabilities. (a) The Legislature recognizes
that language used in reference to individuals with disabilities shapes and reflects society's
attitudes towards people with disabilities. Many of the terms currently used diminish the
humanity and natural condition of having a disability. Certain terms are demeaning and create
an invisible barrier to inclusion as equal community members. The Legislature finds it necessary
to clarify preferred language for new and revised laws by requiring the use of terminology
that puts the person before the disability. (b) The Legal Division is directed to avoid all
references to: Disabled, developmentally disabled, mentally disabled, mentally ill, mentally
retarded, handicapped, cripple, crippled, deaf-mute, deaf-dumb, dumb, and mute in any new
statute or resolution and to change such references when appropriate in any existing statute
or resolution as sections and provisions including these references are...

Section 34-22-80 Legislative findings. The Legislature hereby finds and declares that technological
advances are occurring in the practice of optometry, thereby changing the practice of optometry,
and that those technological advances are in the public interest. The Legislature further
finds and declares that the practice of optometry is a privilege and that the state's ability
