We reached the halfway point of the 121-day legislative session this week. Snow continues to fall in Juneau. Spring cannot come fast enough! Governor Mike Dunleavy’s (R – Alaska) long-awaited gasline bill was finally introduced this week. The drama with the supplemental budget continues – it is now in a conference committee. A major lease sale occurred in the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska (NPRA), drawing more than $160 million in winning bids from several companies. Ballots for the April 7 Anchorage Assembly race went out in the mail. And the price of oil has continued to rise amid the war with Iran.
I was in Anchorage this week doing debates for the six Anchorage Assembly races. You can watch them on the Alaska Landmine YouTube channel or Facebook page. Thanks to our viewers and sponsors!
