Section 16-25A-40 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that private employers have provided
their employees with flexible employee benefit plans which provide a savings both to the employer
and the employee, and that the State of Alabama, its departments and agencies, may provide
the same tax-effective benefits to its public education employees. It is, therefore, the intent
of the Legislature to provide for the establishment of one statewide, universal "cafeteria
plan" or flexible employee benefit plan to be made available to all employees in public
education in compliance with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and to implement the plan
in accordance with the rules and regulations established by the Public Education Flexible
Employees' Benefit Board created by this article. (Act 2004-650, 1st Sp. Sess., p. 31, ยง1.)...

Section 11-92A-2 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent; construction of article.
(a) 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 the state that have
had a far-reaching effect on the welfare of its citizens. The agrarian economy that once prevailed
in the state and provided the principal means of livelihood for most of its citizens 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 dependency upon industrial development as the bulwark of the economy of the state.
It is therefore appropriate and necessary that measures be taken to secure to the citizens
of the state the benefits of a strengthening...
