# Decision Making

Here are the entities that ultimately decide how each of Alabama’s opioid settlement shares are spent:

* **50% state share:** [Alabama state legislature](https://alison.legislature.state.al.us/)
* **50% local share:** decisionmakers for municipalities, counties, and governmental public health entities (i.e., public hospitals, county health departments, boards of health)
