Sealaska Bill
Senator Murkowski and U.S. Rep. Don Young introduced “revised” Sealaska bills (S. 881 and H.R 2099), on April 23, 2009, with Senator Begich co-sponsoring the Senate legislation.
The “revised” bills fail to address major public concerns and comments raised with earlier versions of the bill. The Alaska Delegation needs to hear from you that this bill misses the mark. We need to see a balanced approach that addresses all the needs of the forest.
