But when it comes to providing services, efforts have fallen short. Dr. Al Gross will go to the U.S. Senate and fight for veterans to ensure they are given what they are owed, whether they live in Anchorage or in remote villages. And today especially, as brave young men and women return from overseas deployments, we owe them not just our gratitude, but also the enhanced services needed to treat PTSD and to help them find employment through educational opportunities and vocational training when they return.

Toward that end, the Center has authored and distributed to all legislative candidates our 2020 Corrupt Practices in the Alaska Legislature Candidate Survey. Surveys were sent to all candidates by electronic mail on August 4, 2020. The Center welcomed suggestions for this year's survey from our supporters and donors. The ten topics that were finally chosen for this year's candidate survey highlight several issues of concern that Alaska legislators have faced in recent years and that are likely to resurface in the future. By raising these issues now, we hope to prepare both voters and future legislators to understand and form an opinion about them before being faced with a decision on whether to maintain the status quo within the legislature or chart a new and better course. As of this writing, a number of candidates have yet to review their survey and submit their responses on these very important issues. If your candidate has not yet done so, please encourage them to complete their survey

    June 21, 2021 The Honorable Chuck Schumer The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Majority Leader Speaker United States Senate United States House of Representatives Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20515 The Honorable Mitch McConnell The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Minority Leader Minority Leader United States Senate United States House of Representatives Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Majority Leader Schumer, Madam Speaker Pelosi, Minority Leader McConnell, and Minority Leader McCarthy, As state legislators, we are the day-to-day technicians in fifty unique laboratories of democracy. We do our part to make government work to the benefit of all, regardless of party. This was true during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, when almost every state did its patriotic duty to provide voters relief and remove barriers to voting. This expansion of safe, secure voting led to an election with historic turnout. The scope of these state-level attacks is unparalleled. Close to 400 anti-voter bills have been introduced in legislatures across the nation, with many signed or on the way to becoming law in Texas, Florida, Georgia, and Arizona, and others. Make no mistake: these unpatriotic attacks on our elections will undermine confidence that elections in America can possibly represent the will of a checked and balanced majority. They present a deep threat to our democracy and will lead to material harm to communities that have long been under-represented. In a functioning democracy that fairly represents the voices of all people, elected officials should work together to expand the right to vote and protect the sanctity of elections. Indeed, we have attempted again and again to work with our Republican colleagues to set policies that safely and securely expanded voting access—but they simply refuse to act in good faith.

    Alaska State Legislature State Capitol Official Business Juneau, Alaska 99801-1182 Commissioner Adam Crum Director Clinton Lasley P.O. Box 110690 Juneau, AK 99801 May 28, 2019 Dear Commissioner Crum and Director Lasley, First and foremost, thank you for your work within our Department of Health and Social Services and our Division of Pioneer Homes. Alaska’s Pioneer Homes play a vital role in our communities by creating a home for our aging population, celebrating life through the final breath, and providing individualized care. We want the department to continue to be successful in managing our Pioneer Homes and ask that House Bill 96, while still working its way through the legislative process, serve as a guideline for any proposed increase to rates. We believe the process this legislation has gone through has brought to light many important issues related to Pioneer Home rates. From the research during the drafting process to the questions and concerns discussed during committee meetings, we believe HB 96 is an appropriate guide for the department in its decision-making process. House Bill 96 passed the Alaska House of Representatives with broad-bipartisan support in May. Regular session ended before it was heard in the Senate, where we expect a similar level of support next session. HB 96 allows for a one time rebasing of rates for Pioneer Homes and then provides a structure for reasonable and regular rate increases to ensure that rates keep up with the cost of providing care for Pioneer Home residents by using the Social Security Cost of Living adjustment as a benchmark.
