ONCE AGAIN, THE STATE OF ALASKA IS SAFE - PLEASE SMILE

The gavel came down to close the first session of the 25th Alaska Legislature one minute before midnight on tonight, May 16th (Once again, the State of Alaska is safe!! - please smile). Next year’s session begins January 12th, 2008. During the interim, legislators maintain offices in their local areas. My interim office is in downtown Anchorage at 716 W. 4th Street (Southeast corner 4th and H), Room 330. Visitors welcome!

668 bills and resolutions were introduced into the State House and Senate, 196 of which passed both the House and the Senate. Those that didn’t pass both legislative bodies this year may be heard in the session beginning January 12th.

The most controversial issues this session were probably the gas pipeline, ethics, senior benefits, and benefits for “same sex partners.”
