Section 22-6-191 Legislative intent. The intent of this article is to allow the only PACE provider in the State of Alabama to continue to provide services to nursing home eligible patients as the PACE program provides treatment to patients for fewer federal and state taxpayer dollars than other programs existing in the state. The Legislature declares that this article is broad-based in nature as the assessment herein is imposed on all health care or services in the class of providers and is uniformly imposed across all providers. The Legislature further declares that the entire PACE industry in Alabama exists only in Class 2 municipalities. The Legislature further recognizes that a Class 2 municipality bill is a general bill under the Alabama Constitution. (Act 2014-126, p. 236, §2.)...

Section 16-16-2 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent; liberal construction of chapter. The Legislature hereby makes the findings of fact and declaration of intent hereinafter set forth in this section. The great increase during recent years in the number of students enrolled in the public schools and in other educational institutions in the state that are supported wholly or in part by the state, the anticipated further increase in the enrollment of students in such schools and educational institutions resulting from the greatly increased birth rate and other factors, the increased enrollment in other public institutions in the state and the need to supply additional educational facilities at those other public institutions for the purpose of maintaining and further developing educational programs for the inmates of those institutions have made it imperative that buildings and other facilities for educational purposes be constructed and equipped in all parts of the...

Section 41-10-21 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent; construction of article. 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 this state which have had a far-reaching effect on the welfare of its citizens. The agrarian economy which once prevailed in this state and provided the principal means of livelihood for most of the citizens of the state 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 dependence upon industrial development as the bulwark of the economy of this state. It is appropriate and necessary that measures be taken to secure to the citizens of this state the benefits of a strengthened...

Section 6-5-751 Legislative findings and objectives. (a) The Legislature finds that the recruitment, establishment, development, and growth of the commercial aviation aircraft manufacturing industry in the State of Alabama is important to the economic health of the state and its agencies and institutions and to the general health, welfare, and prosperity of its citizens. The Legislature finds that it is reasonable and important to the national and international companies and businesses involved in the commercial aviation aircraft manufacturing industry locating or considering locating in the State of Alabama to expect that civil liability actions against them, if any, will be governed by tort principles generally accepted in other jurisdictions outside this state that are home to such companies and businesses, but which are consistent with the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, and this state's public policy. The Legislature finds that the principles addressed in this article, namely,...

Section 2-6-11 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that the Garrett Coliseum and the Alabama Agricultural Center, hereinafter the facility, is a significant historic facility owned by the State of Alabama and which faces imminent closure because of operational and public safety concerns if it is not restored, renovated, and improved. The facility was designed in 1949 by Betty Robinson, the first woman graduate from Auburn University with a degree in architecture. The facility, completed in 1953, is of historic and cultural significance to the State of Alabama and its restoration will enhance opportunities for economic development that will benefit the state. The Legislature further finds that the most efficient way to restore the facility and to operate it profitably is for the Alabama Agricultural Center Board, hereinafter referred to as the board, to enter into agreements with public institutions and other entities through which the use of private funding is primarily used to...
