Alaskan Election Law in 2020
37.2 KEYNOTE ADDRESS (DO NOT DELETE) 2/21/2021 6:45 PM KEYNOTE ADDRESS ALASKAN ELECTION LAW IN 2020 ERWIN CHEMERINSKY* As we face the momentous 2020 elections, this is an incredibly timely moment to be discussing election law in general and Alaska election law in particular. In my talk this morning, I will focus on three questions. First, what is the approach of the United States Supreme Court this year towards election law issues? Second, what historically was the approach to Alaska election issues? And third, what are some of the most important current issues with regard to Alaska election law? On the first question, it is important to discuss election law in the context of this moment in the midst of a 2020 national election—an election unlike any other in our history. There is clearly a political context to this question. Let me try to state it as fairly as I can in terms of the competing world view positions. The competing positions have never been as sharply drawn. The Republican position is that voter fraud is a major problem in the United States and that absentee ballots risk great voter fraud. Politically, Republicans perceive fewer absentee ballots being cast to be to their party’s benefit. They see absentee ballots as much more likely to favor Democrats than Republicans. So, in litigation going on all over the country, Republicans are trying to limit the ability of people to cast absentee ballots and limit the time period within which those ballots must be received in order to be counted. -

Activist Literacy and Dr. Jill Stein's 2012 Green Party Campaign
45 Recognizing the Rhetorics of Feminist Action: Activist Literacy and Dr. Jill Stein’s 2012 Green Party Campaign Virginia Crisco Abstract: Scholars such as Nancy Welch and Susan Jarratt argue that Neoliberalism shapes how everyday citizens are able to take action. Using what Jacquelyn Jones Royster and Gesa Kirsch call “social circulation,” I analyze how Dr. Jill Stein, the presidential candidate for the Green Party in 2012, used “whatever spaces are left” to challenge the dominant two party system, particularly in relation to the pres- idential debates. I argue that Stein demonstrates an activist literacy disposition that positions her to use the spaces, the literate and rhetorical means, and oppor- tunities for storytelling to foster social action in our neoliberal climate. Keywords: neoliberalism, social circulation, activist literacy, third party politics In Living Room: Teaching Public Writing in a Privatized World, Nancy Welch argues that neoliberalism has changed not only the topics available for public discussion in the pursuit of making socio-political change, but the venues for having those discussions, as they have also become increasingly privatized. As an example, Welch refects on her experiences advocating for her husband’s health care to their insurance company. She describes the multiple letters she had gotten from her insurance company saying their appeal for his care had been denied, using the same phrases again and again, as if her carefully re- searched and rhetorical letters were not even being read. This leads Welch to question the amount of power we as teachers and scholars of writing give to language and rhetoric: These are rhetorical strategies that, mostly in the abstract, have given me comfort – comfort in the belief that I really can wield power in language, that I can empower my students, particularly those subor- dinate by gender, race, sexuality, and class, to do the same. -

However, HB 159 and SB 116 contain provisions that could hinder Alaskans’ access to valuable ad-supported online resources, impede their ability to exercise choice in the marketplace, and harm businesses of all sizes that support the economy. To help ensure Alaskan businesses can continue to thrive and Alaskan consumers can continue to reap the benefits of a robust ad-supported online ecosystem and exercise choice in the marketplace, we recommend that the legislature undertake a study of available approaches to regulating data privacy before moving forward with enacting the onerous, and in some cases, outdated provisions set forth in these bills. -

Remarks by Mead Treadwell Chair, U.S. Arctic Research Commission
Remarks by Mead Treadwell Chair, U.S. Arctic Research Commission International Arctic Fisheries Conference Institute of the North/Hotel Captain Cook Anchorage, Alaska – October 19, 2009 Arctic Fisheries: five things we should commit to now Thank you, Ben, for your introduction, and for pulling this conference together. Some of you know Ben Ellis, some of you may not. Until a few weeks ago, I called him ‘boss’: I’d recruited him, and he’d succeeded me as managing director of the Institute of the North. Ben, you’ve done a magnificent job for Alaskans, for the Arctic, for the country by doing what Governor Wally Hickel taught us both to do: convene a learned conversation to help Northerners address what’s strategic, and to find a common voice. Northerners everywhere can thank you for what you’ve done to advance fisheries, shipping, aviation safety, our common security, and sustainable energy in your work. The tone and tenor of Alaska’s political conversation – and talk throughout the Arctic – is calmer, cooler, and collected because of your dedicated work, including one of the Institute’s hallmark programs, an annual “Alaska Dialogue” policy conference at the foot of North America’s tallest mountain, Denali. Don’t get me wrong – I’m not saying Ben himself is always calm or cool or collected! Try bringing bananas on his fishing boat! Ben, every time we see your temper, it has been to get us all to chip in, to push us all forward, and forward we have come. Thanks. I also want to recognize Ambassador David Balton who is with us this week. -
Prayer Practices
Floor Action 5-145 Prayer Practices Legislatures operate with a certain element of pomp, ceremony and procedure that flavor the institution with a unique air of tradition and theatre. The mystique of the opening ceremonies and rituals help to bring order and dignity to the proceedings. One of these opening ceremonies is the offering of a prayer. Use of legislative prayer. The practice of opening legislative sessions with prayer is long- standing. The custom draws its roots from both houses of the British Parliament, which, according to noted parliamentarian Luther Cushing, from time ”immemorial” began each day with a “reading of the prayers.” In the United States, this custom has continued without interruption at the federal level since the first Congress under the Constitution (1789) and for more than a century in many states. Almost all state legislatures still use an opening prayer as part of their tradition and procedure (see table 02-5.50). In the Massachusetts Senate, a prayer is offered at the beginning of floor sessions for special occasions. Although the use of an opening prayer is standard practice, the timing of when the prayer occurs varies (see table 02-5.51). In the majority of legislative bodies, the prayer is offered after the floor session is called to order, but before the opening roll call is taken. Prayers sometimes are given before floor sessions are officially called to order; this is true in the Colorado House, Nebraska Senate and Ohio House. Many chambers vary on who delivers the prayer. Forty-seven chambers allow people other than the designated legislative chaplain or a visiting chaplain to offer the opening prayer (see table 02-5.52).
