Section 22-4B-2 Legislative intent. The Legislature of Alabama finds that there exists a critical
shortage of registered nurses who are willing and able to provide health care to citizens
in rural areas of Alabama. Such shortage is particularly acute in rural areas, and has a negative
impact on the availability of care to low income and indigent citizens of Alabama who reside
in rural areas. The Legislature further finds that there are many dedicated employees of the
Alabama Department of Public Health who are disqualified from training as registered nurses
solely by reason of their inability to finance the cost of attending school to obtain the
requisite degree. Such employees are also prevented or retarded in career advancement because
of a lack of education. It is the intent of the Legislature in adopting this chapter to address
the nursing shortage in county health departments and in federally-funded community health
centers in rural areas and to provide opportunities for career...

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...
