Section 41-10-651 Legislative findings. (a) The Legislature finds and declares the following:
(1) That it is appropriate and necessary that measures be taken to secure to the citizens
of the state the benefits of a strengthening economy resulting from increased industrial development.

Section 45-49-42 Legislative findings. The Legislature of the State of Alabama declares and
finds that the business of operating massage parlors as defined herein are businesses affecting
the public health, safety, and general welfare; that such businesses have been used in Mobile
County and elsewhere as fronts for the conduct of prostitution, assignation, and lewdness;
that the method of operation of such business generally is such that female persons bargain
with male customers for illicit sexual activities, including prostitution and sodomy, only
after performing so-called massages while the male customer is nude, and after engaging the
customer as part of the so-called massage in sexual foreplay to the point of sexual arousal;
that because of the method of operation the gathering of evidence by law enforcement officers
sufficient for the officers to make an arrest or to institute some other civil proceeding
requires male officers to pose as customers, and to perform degrading,...

Section 22-6-233 Legislative findings; certification of collaborators; powers of Medicaid Agency;
state action immunity. (a) The Legislature declares that collaboration among public payers,
private health carriers, third party purchasers, and providers to identify appropriate service
delivery systems and reimbursement methods in order to align incentives in support of integrated
and coordinated health care delivery is in the best interest of the public. Collaboration
pursuant to this article is to provide quality health care at the lowest possible cost to
Alabama citizens who are Medicaid eligible. The Legislature, therefore, declares that this
health care delivery system affirmatively contemplates the foreseeable displacement of competition,
such that any anti-competitive effect may be attributed to the state's policy to displace
competition in the delivery of a coordinated system of health care for the public benefit.
In furtherance of this goal, the Legislature declares its intent...

provided to the board by Section 34-11-35, the Legislature finds and declares all of the following:

(4) Prioritizing health, life, safety, welfare, and property may sometimes be at odds with

Section 15-18-141 Legislative findings, etc. The Legislature hereby finds, determines and declares
that the right of crime victims to restitution is and ought to be intimately affected with
the public interest. The Legislature further hereby finds, determines, and declares that convicted
criminals should be required to fully compensate the victims of their unlawful activity, and

orders will and ought to serve as a real and meaningful deterrent...

the following: (1) In recent years, withdrawals have been made from the Alabama Trust Fund

5-27-1
Section 5-27-1 (Effective January 1, 2018) Legislative findings. The Legislature finds and
declares the following: (1) Federal law allows both depository financial institutions and
credit unions to hold savings promotion contests, subject to certain conditions and authorization
under state law. (2) Savings promotion contests in other states and countries have led to
an increase in the number and amount of funds in personal savings accounts. (3) Savings promotion
contests encourage people to save money by adding a feature to personal savings accounts that
includes a chance to win prizes. (4) Savings promotion contests are not lotteries because
they do not require individuals to pay consideration for a chance to win a prize, and the
individual maintains ownership of the money that is deposited into a savings account or other
qualifying account. (5) The prizes are funded through the interest that accrues across the
pool of savings accounts participating in the promotion contest. (6) It is...
