Section 27-1-10.1 Insurance coverage for drugs to treat life-threatening illnesses.
(a) The Legislature finds and declares the following: (1) The citizens of this state rely
upon health insurance to cover the cost of obtaining health care and it is essential that
the citizens' expectation that their health care costs will be paid by their insurance policies
is not disappointed and that they obtain the coverage necessary and appropriate for their
care within the terms of their insurance policies. (2) Some insurers deny payment for drugs

Section 45-13-20 Municipal option election for legalization of sale and distribution
of alcoholic beverages. (a)(1) The Legislature of Alabama is cognizant of "Opinion of
the Justices No. 376," issued April 9, 2002, which states that a local bill for Cherokee

not presently exist in smaller municipalities in Cherokee County, does not fit within the
ambit of the last paragraph of Section 104 permitting the Legislature to pass local
laws regulating or prohibiting such traffic." The effect of this Opinion of the Justices
is to greatly limit situations in which local laws may be enacted regarding alcoholic beverages.
This opinion was, in part, based upon a determination that, "Generally, 'regulate' implies
the exercise of control over something that already exists." While respecting the constitutional
authority granted to the Alabama Supreme Court to interpret the Constitution of Alabama of
1901, this...
