Section 26-23B-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature makes all of the following findings:
(1) Pain receptors (nociceptors) are present throughout the unborn child's entire body by
no later than 16 weeks after fertilization and nerves link these receptors to the brain's
thalamus and subcortical plate by no later than 20 weeks. (2) By eight weeks after fertilization,
the unborn child reacts to touch. After 20 weeks, the unborn child reacts to stimuli that
would be recognized as painful if applied to an adult human, for example by recoiling. (3)

and is associated with a decrease in stress hormones compared to their level when painful
stimuli is applied without such anesthesia. (4) In the unborn child, application of such painful

findings: (1) Article I, Section 4 of the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, recognizes that
all persons may speak, write, and publish their sentiments on all subjects, and that "no
law shall ever be passed to curtail or restrain the liberty of speech...." (2) Alabama's
public institutions of higher education have historically embraced a commitment to freedom
of speech and expression. (3) The United States Supreme Court has called public universities
"peculiarly the marketplace of ideas," Healy v. James, 408 U.S. 169, 180 (1972),
where young adults learn to exercise those constitutional rights necessary to participate
in our system of government and to tolerate the exercise of those rights by others, and there
is "no room for the view that First Amendment protections should apply with less force
on college campuses than in the community at large." Healy, 408 U.S. at 180. (4) The
United...
