Section 16-68-1 (Effective July 1, 2020) Legislative findings.

Section 16-6B-11 Paperwork Reduction Committee. (a) The Legislature finds that the excessive paperwork required of teachers and other public education employees hinders the prime responsibility of public education: The education of the children of Alabama.
