  • February 4, 2008, Letter to Governor Palin
    ® PsychRights Law Project for Psychiatric Rights, Inc. February 4, 2007 Governor Sarah Palin PO Box 110001 Juneau, AK 99811-0001 Re: Alaska's Psychiatric Drugging of Children in It's Custody Dear Governor Palin: I am the President and CEO of the Law Project for Psychiatric Rights (PsychRights), founded in late 2002 to mount a strategic litigation campaign against unwarranted forced psychiatric drugging. The reason for undertaking this mission is, contrary to the story sold by the pharmaceutical industry, these drugs: (1) have limited effectiveness, especially for those upon whom they are forced, (2) are causing great harm, including reducing life spans to the point where people in the public mental health system taking these drugs have a 25 year reduced lifespan, (3) decrease, rather than increase public safety, and (4) at least double the number of people categorized as chronically mentally ill.1 The latter, of course, causes great unnecessary expense to the State because almost all of these people end up as Medicaid recipients and a large percentage receive Alaska Adult Public Assistance. In 2006 PsychRights won its first Alaska Supreme Court case, Myers v. Alaska Psychiatric Institute, 138 P.3d 238, in which the Court held Alaska's statutory forced psychiatric drugging regime unconstitutional, requiring, before the State may constitutionally force adults to take these drugs against their will it must prove the forced drugging is in the patient's best interest and there are no less intrusive alternatives.2 The terrible consequences of adult forced drugging is bad enough, but due to what is probably illegal pharmaceutical company "off-label" promotion of these drugs for use on children,3 in recent years there has been an explosion in the administration of the most powerful, most harmful, and most debilitating psychiatric drugs to children in state custody.

On Remand From the United States Supreme Court Argued and Submitted February 22, 2021 San Francisco, California Filed July 30, 2021 Before: Sidney R. Thomas, Chief Judge, and Consuelo M. Callahan and Carlos T. Bea, Circuit Judges. 2 THOMPSON V. HEBDON Order; Opinion by Judge Callahan; Partial Concurrence and Partial Dissent by Chief Judge Thomas SUMMARY* Civil Rights/Campaign Finance In an action alleging that an Alaska law regulating campaign contributions violates the First Amendment, the panel issued an order withdrawing its opinion, filed on November 27, 2018, and published at 909 F.3d 1027, and replaced it with the opinion filed concurrently with the panel’s order. On remand from the United States Supreme Court, the panel (1) affirmed the district court’s bench trial judgment upholding Alaska’s political party-to-party candidate limit; (2) reversed the district court’s judgment as to the individual-to-candidate limit, the individual-to-group limit, and the nonresident aggregate limit; and (3) remanded for entry of a judgment consistent with the panel’s opinion. Plaintiffs, three individuals and a subdivision of the Alaska Republican Party, challenged: (1) the $500 annual limit on an individual contribution to a political candidate, (2) the $500 limit on an individual contribution to a non- political party group, (3) annual limits on what a political party—including its subdivisions—may contribute to a candidate, and (4) the annual aggregate limit on * This summary constitutes no part of the opinion of the court.

  • S Sullivan Gr Rows Lead in Alaska GOP Prim Mary, Beg Gich up in General
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 13, 2014 INTERVIEWS: Tom Jensen 919-744-6312 IF YOU HAVE BASIC METHODOLOGICAL QUESTIONS, PLEASE E-MAIL [email protected], OR CONSULT THE FINAL PARAGRAPH OF THE PRESS RELEASE Sullivan grrows lead in Alaska GOP primary, Begich up in general Raleigi h, N.C. – PPP's newest Alaska poll finds the Republican primary for Senate becoming increasingly less competitive. Dan Sullivan is now out to a 14 point lead with 40% to 26% for Mead Treadwell, 14% for Joe Miller, and 3% foor John Jaramillo. The race has been moving more and more in Sullivan's direction in our polling over the last nine months. In July Treadwell led Sullivan 33/25. Since then Sullivan's support has moved from that 25% mark last summer to 30% in February and now 40%. Meanwhile Treadwell dropped from 33% in July to 25% in February and is now pretty much holding steady with his 26% mark. Mark Begich leads all of his potential Republican oppponents, but the match ups are pretty close across the board. He's up 42/37 on Sullivan with third party candidates combining for 7%, he's up 41/33 on Treadwell with third party candidates combining for 9%, and he's up 43/27 on Miller with third party candidates combining for 6%. Voters are closely divided in their feeelings about Begich with 44% approving of him and 45% disapproving. Begich is staying ahead despite the state's GOP lean bbecause of his strong support from independents. He leads Sullivan by 19 points, Treadwell by 20 points, and Miller by 27 points with them.

Politics Policy 2012; 4(3): 2–38 Research Article Jerry McBeath* and Tanya Buhler Corbin The Outlier State: Alaska’s FY 2012 Budget Abstract: This report discusses the Alaska economy in 2010 and 2011, reviews demographic and workforce changes, and surveys the 2010 primary and general election outcomes. It discusses state issues with federal connections, and then analyzes the FY 2012 budget process (the governor’s requested budgets and legi slative responses extending into a special session. The state entered FY 2012 with a substantial budget surplus, unlike most other states. Keywords: Alaska Permanent Fund; natural gas pipe line; oil prices; petroleum production tax (ACES); redistricting *Corresponding author: Jerry McBeath, Department of Political Science, University of Alaska Fairbanks, PO Box 756420, Fairbanks, AK, USA Tanya Buhler Corbin: Department of Political Science, Radford University, PO Box 6945, Radford, VA, USA 1 Introduction Alaska is a non-contiguous state of the American union. Certainly, it differs from all other American states in its revenue sources and expenditures. This paper describes the fiscal policy process explaining the Alaska FY 2012 budget plan, and covers the period from July 1, 2010 until the end of August, 2011. The report begins with a discussion of the state’s economy in 2010 and the first eight months of 2011, provides an overview of the demographic and workforce changes in the previous year, and then surveys the 2010 primary and general election outcomes. Next, we discuss the state issues with federal connections tracked in this report over the last dozen years.

  • Primary Election Overview Division of Elections: Write-In Campaign Adds New Twist to U.S
    Fisheries, The FAIR Awareness, Information, and Responsibility A Publication of the Bering Sea Fishermen’s Association October 2010 Votes will affectAdvocate the lives of rural and Native Alaskans Candidate Surveys for the 2010 General Election Yes, it’s election time again. Sometimes, election season can be exhausting for voters: your mailbox stuffed with election flyers, pollsters calling you on the phone, and sometimes nasty commercials from candidates. This year has been no different. But, these people who are running for office and asking for your votes have the ability to affect the things that are important to you (hopefully, for the better). Now that the primary is behind us and we move toward the November 2nd general election, several issues weigh heavy on our minds— issues affecting our fisheries. Sometimes during the hectic election season, these issues get lost amidst the discussion of other important statewide issues like the budget, natural gas pipeline, and ANWR. The space and funding we have to regularly print and distribute the FAIR Advocate is limited, so we didn’t survey all the different candidates and races. We focused on two of the Statewide races that have garnered much of the attention of the public and the media: the races for U.S. Senator and the Alaska Governor. We also limited our surveys to candidates who received at least 10,000 votes in the primary. Inside this issue, you’ll find the questions we asked and the answers from the candidates that chose to respond. Due to limitations on our non-profit funding status, we can’t endorse candidates.
