Section 24-1A-41.1 Legislative intent. (a) In order to offset the adverse effects of the global
and national recession on Alabama's housing industry and its economic development activity
and to provide a boost to the state's housing industry and its economic development and industrial
recruitment, the Legislature adopted the Alabama Home Buyers Initiative Act, codified as Sections
24-1A-40 to 24-1A-43, inclusive, which established a mortgage guarantee fund to reimburse

Section 26-21-1 Legislative purpose and findings. (a) It is the intent of the Legislature in
enacting this parental consent provision to further the important and compelling state interests
of: (1) protecting minors against their own immaturity, (2) fostering the family structure
and preserving it as a viable social unit, and (3) protecting the rights of parents to rear
children who are members of their household. (b) The Legislature finds as fact that: (1) immature
minors often lack the ability to make fully informed choices that take account of both immediate
and long-range consequences, (2) the medical, emotional, and psychological consequences of
abortion are serious and can be lasting, particularly when the patient is immature, (3) the
capacity to become pregnant and the capacity for mature judgment concerning the wisdom of
an abortion are not necessarily related, (4) parents ordinarily possess information essential
to a physician's exercise of his or her best medical judgment...

28-2A-3
Section 28-2A-3 Legislative intent. It is hereby declared the intention and the purpose of
this article to permit an election by the citizens of certain municipalities to determine
the wet or dry status of such municipalities with regard to the sale, distribution, and consumption
of alcoholic beverages within the corporate limits of such municipalities; and further that
such election shall be provided only in those municipalities which can provide safeguards
for the protection of the public welfare, health, peace, and morals of the people. In the
furtherance of the protection of the public welfare, health, peace, and morals, the Legislature
has determined that a population classification should be established to provide this method
of municipal option election only in those municipalities with a population of 1,000 or more
people within a county, it being the judgment of the Legislature that municipalities with
a lesser population would be unable to support and maintain such protection...

Section 11-50A-2 Legislative intent. The municipalities are now empowered to own and operate
electric distribution systems to serve their citizens, inhabitants, and customers by providing
them electricity for all purposes. To assure that the municipalities may have alternative
sources of bulk electric power and energy, in addition to those presently available, to operate
their electric distribution systems in a dependable, efficient, and economical manner, it
is desirable that the municipalities acting through the authority be empowered to engage in
joint action for the generation, transmission, and distribution of bulk electric power and
energy for sale to the municipalities for resale and for the sale, purchase, exchange and
transmission of bulk electric power and energy with other electric suppliers. The Legislature
finds and declares that the provision of alternative sources of bulk electric power and energy
to the municipalities through joint action in the fields of generation,...

Section 11-92A-2 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent; construction of article.
(a) The Legislature hereby makes the following findings of fact and declares its intent to
be as follows: In recent years changes have taken place in the economy of the state that have
had a far-reaching effect on the welfare of its citizens. The agrarian economy that once prevailed
in the state and provided the principal means of livelihood for most of its citizens has proven
inadequate to provide employment for the state's growing population. The advent of mechanized
and scientific farming methods has reduced greatly the number of persons required to obtain
increased yields of agricultural products from land under cultivation. There has been a correspondingly
greater dependency upon industrial development as the bulwark of the economy of the state.
It is therefore appropriate and necessary that measures be taken to secure to the citizens
of the state the benefits of a strengthening...

Section 16-60-82 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent. The Legislature hereby
makes the following findings of fact and declares its intent to be as follows: The number
of students enrolled in trade schools and colleges supported wholly or in part by the state
has increased greatly during recent years. Further increases in enrollment are anticipated
because of the increased rate of births, the increased need for skilled workers and other
factors. In order to meet these needs and to provide residents of this state with the opportunity
to receive adequate instruction in the arts and sciences and in useful skills and trades,
it is imperative that junior colleges and additional trade schools be constructed, equipped
and operated. The tax revenues and other funds currently available for trade schools and junior
colleges are not sufficient to permit immediate outlays of the large amounts of capital necessary
for such construction and equipment and at the same time to permit...

to the state Constitution which expressly authorizes such...
