Section 41-15A-11
Legislative intent.
It is the intent of the Legislature to establish state matching monies for contributions received by the State Treasurer for the Penny Trust Fund. The state establishes these matching funds in honor of former Representative John L. Buskey of Montgomery, the House primary sponsor of the Penny Trust Fund in the 1989 Regular Session of the Legislature, and whose untimely death has taken a great advocate of health services for children and the elderly from the people of Alabama. It is the intent of the Legislature that matching monies shall be transferred to the Penny Trust Fund from the State General Fund and the Education Trust Fund for those monies contributed to or deposited into the Penny Trust Fund. It is the intent of the Legislature that these monies shall be on a one-to-one match from both the State General Fund and the Education Trust Fund.
