I hope this message finds you and your loved ones safe and healthy. The end of the legislative session is approaching fast, and I must admit that I am feeling frustrated that the House Majority has not put together a real fiscal plan, or sent revenue bills to the floor for a vote.
JUNEAU – With less than two weeks before the 121-day constitutional end of session, members of the House have yet to see a single component of a fiscal plan pass from committee and reach the House Floor.
This week, Representative Cliff Groh (D-Anchorage) introduced House Bill 153 to increase the oil and gas property tax mill rate which, if passed, would generate significant new revenues and release some of the budget pressure that underpins the legislative tension of recent years.
