NEWS: Legislature Passes Rep. Holmes Bill to Enforce Consumer Protections
“Alaska should not have its hands tied waiting for the federal government to protect our citizens”
This morning, the Alaska State Senate passed HB 274, a bill by Rep. Lindsey Holmes to bolster the state’s ability to stand up for the rights of Alaskan consumers.
Currently, a loophole in state law prevents the state from enforcing Alaska’s Consumer Protection laws in cases where federal and state responsibility overlap.
