Section 25-5-14 Legislative findings and intent as to actions filed by injured employee against
officers, etc., of same employer. The Legislature finds that actions filed on behalf of injured
employees against officers, directors, agents, servants, or employees of the same employer
seeking to recover damages in excess of amounts received or receivable from the employer under
the workers' compensation statutes of this state and predicated upon claimed negligent or
wanton conduct resulting in injuries arising out of and in the course of employment are contrary
to the intent of the Legislature in adopting a comprehensive workers' compensation scheme
and are producing a debilitating and adverse effect upon efforts to retain existing, and to
attract new industry to this state. Specifically, the existence of such causes of action places
this state at a serious disadvantage in comparison to the existing laws of other states with
whom this state competes in seeking to attract and retain...

Section 28-4A-6 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that it is in the best interest
of the public welfare of the State of Alabama to preserve and redevelop the downtown municipal
areas and registered historic districts and certain economically distressed areas of this
state and to further promote the preservation and redevelopment of historic buildings and
sites. The Legislature finds that an effective way of facilitating the urban redevelopment
program and the preservation of historic buildings and sites, and registered historic districts
and any economically distressed area designated as suitable by the municipal or county governing
body is by creating a single exception to the existing alcoholic beverage laws to authorize
and permit the establishment of brewpubs located in such historic buildings, sites, or districts
in urban redevelopment areas or economically distressed areas of those municipalities located
within counties where the brewing of beer for consumption by the...

Section 8-6-111 Legislative findings; purpose of article. (a) The Legislature finds and determines
that unscrupulous promoters may take advantage of the authorizing act by inducing issuers
to issue industrial revenue bonds which careful investigation by the issuer or other responsible
parties would reveal to be improvident. The standing of all issuers could be impaired and
the purposes of the Legislature in enacting the authorizing act could be thwarted by those
improvident issues. (b) The purpose of this article is to provide a procedure whereby the
State of Alabama, acting through the director and the commission, may assist in developing
facts to aid the issuer in the exercise of its authority under the authorizing act, and, to
that end, to delay the issuance of industrial revenue bonds pending adequate investigation
by the director or to prevent the issue of industrial revenue bonds found to be improvident.
