Given the current budget worries due to the low price of oil it will be difficult to gain traction on any bills requiring an investment of funds. It is only by working together as Alaskans that we can advance conservation legislation. Now more than ever we need your help to turn conservation values into state priorities. Keep checking our website and sign up for our Conservation Watch email list to stay up-to-date on these three legislative priorities.
Of course, ACV will also be supporting and reporting on other conservation-related legislation as it moves through the Legislature. In addition to learning about our priorities, our weekly Conservation Watch tracks new bills, bills on the move and the weekly calendar of hearings. Sign up today!
