Legislators respond to Walker’s latest special session

Alaska’s Legislature will have another 30 days beginning on July 11th to pass a long-term fiscal plan for funding state government. That’s because Governor Bill Walker called them back for another special session. Legislators had a mixed response to the call. Some say they’re open to working on new proposals they expect from Walker. But others are skeptical toward the governor’s approach and say the Legislature can return to the issue next year in the regular session.
