HOUSE BILL NO. 322 "An Act relating to the Alaska marine highway system vessel replacement fund; and providing for an effective date." 1:39:52 PM Co-Chair Merrick reported that HB 322 was previously heard on March 15, 2022. Representative LeBon MOVED to ADOPT Amendment 1, 32- LS1501\B.1 (Marx, 3/23/22) (copy on file). Co-Chair Merrick OBJECTED for discussion. Representative LeBon explained the amendment. He communicated that the amendment proposed to move the Alaska Higher Education Investment Fund from its current location in the General Fund (GF) to a separate fund in the state treasury. The provision was an attempt to protect the fund from a constitutional sweep under Article 9, Section 17 d of the Alaska Constitution. He furthered that students benefitting from the Alaska Performance Scholarship, state education grants, and the Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana, and Idaho (WWAMI) program should not be subjected to a political vote on an accounting procedure. He noted that the language aligned with a companion bill in the Senate. He hoped the other body would [Senate] protect the fund. He withdrew his amendment.
