Section 41-9-981 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds and declares the following:
(1) During the period from 1933-1945, six million Jews and millions of other Europeans were
murdered in Nazi concentration camps as part of a carefully orchestrated program of cultural,
social, political, and ethnic genocide known as the Holocaust. (2) All people should remember
the horrible atrocities committed at that time and other times in human history as the result
of bigotry, discrimination, and the abuse of power and should continually rededicate themselves
to the principles of human rights and equal protection under the laws of this democratic society.
(3) It is desirable to educate Alabama citizens about the events leading up to the Holocaust
and about organizations, institutions, and facilities that were created and used purposefully
for the systematic destruction of human beings. (4) It is the policy of the State of Alabama
that Holocaust education is the proper concern of all peoples....

Section 16-16A-7 Additional findings; bonds authorized; procedures. (a) The Legislature
finds that the number of students attending the several school systems located in those areas
of North Alabama that will be directly impacted by the 2005 BRAC and Subsequent BRAC Actions
will collectively increase by an estimated 9,000 students. As a result, there will be a need
for the construction of additional school facilities as well as the renovation of existing
school facilities. The Legislature also finds that the 2005 BRAC and Subsequent BRAC Actions
will have a positive impact on future receipts to the Education Trust Fund, as the significant
population growth in North Alabama will increase sales, income, and other tax collections.
Thus, it is an efficient use of state funds to allow such revenue growth to help pay for capital
improvement costs associated with BRAC-related school construction. (b) The Alabama Public
School and College Authority is hereby authorized to sell and issue its...

Section 41-18-1 Text. Article I. Findings and Purposes. (a) The party states find that

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...
