HJR 46-SUPPORTING DENALI COMMISSION
10:07:36 AM
CO-CHAIR HERRON announced that the final order of business would
be HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION NO. 46, Urging Congressional support
for the reauthorization of the Denali Commission.

individual recommendations and the accompanying fiscal notes.
CO-CHAIR HERRON objected for discussion purposes.

REPRESENTATIVE CISSNA spoke in favor of HJR 46. Drawing upon
her experience traveling throughout the state, she related the
need for health clinics that serve the entire community. She
also related that she has been impressed with what the Denali
Commission has been able to do in these communities.
10:10:34 AM
REPRESENTATIVE KELLER said he wouldn't stand in the way of HJR
46 and related his appreciation for the valuable work of the

Commission is the only one that hasn't been reauthorized.
