JUNEAU – Rep. Genevieve Mina has introduced a crucial piece of legislation aimed at enhancing the state’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). House Bill 196 simplifies the SNAP process by enacting broad-based categorical eligibility (BBCE):
Happy spring everyone! We’ve had a busy couple of weeks with the Fiscal Year 2024 (FY24) Operating Budget which has passed the House and sits in the Senate.
In the past couple of weeks, I passed HJR 4 (Alaska-Korea Relationship) unanimously out of the House, moved HB 23 (Filipino-American History Month) out of committee with over 20 bipartisan co-sponsors, introduced a bill to pay family caregivers, shared my story at a suicide awareness vigil, joined my colleagues in a jam band session, attended community council meetings, participated in the Legislative Shoot Out – and celebrated my birthday!
HAPPY MARCH! This past weekend my team and I flew back to Anchorage. We kicked off our visit by purchasing goods to donate to the Blood Bank of Alaska in Airport Heights and the Food Bank of Alaska.
Welcome to our office! I am incredibly honored to represent House District 19 and our neighborhoods of Airport Heights, Mountain View, and Russian Jack in the 33rd Alaska State Legislature.
