HJR 3 - CONST. AM: NO GAMING WITHOUT VOTER APPROVAL 2:56:31 PM CHAIR RAMRAS announced that the final order of business would be HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION NO. 3, Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Alaska requiring an affirmative vote of the people before any form of gambling for profit may be authorized in Alaska and setting other requirements. 2:56:46 PM PAUL GROSSI, Staff, Representative Harry Crawford, Alaska State Legislature, explained on behalf of Representative Crawford, one of HJR 3's joint prime sponsors, that HJR 3 is proposing an amendment to the Alaska State Constitution such that if approved by the voters, the Alaska State Constitution would then require a vote of the people before any gambling for profit would be allowed to take place in Alaska. He relayed that similar legislation passed the House during the prior legislature. In response to a question, he surmised that any forthcoming testimony would focus on the negative impacts of gambling, and the virtues of allowing the people to vote on whether they wanted for-profit gambling to occur in Alaska. REPRESENTATIVE LYNN noted that public testimony on HJR 3 was heard in the House State Affairs Standing Committee. CHAIR RAMRAS relayed that HJR 3 would be held over.
