Insert "$50,000,000"
Vice-Chair Stoltze OBJECTED for discussion.
2:54:20 PM
Representative Hawker described the Amendment as reducing
the rate of the authorized state subsidy. There was a
discussion regarding the efficacy of putting a cap on the
subsidies.
SENATOR JOHNNY ELLIS, SPONSOR, reiterated his concerns
regarding the Amendment. He thought the limits already built
into the legislation, the overall limit of $150 million, the
annual review and the five year sunset, were sufficient. The
limits were calibrated in consultation with the film
industry and he did not think the program would be
competitive if adjusted to the numbers proposed the in
Amendment, especially taking into account the high cost of
doing business in Alaska.
3:00:26 PM
Representative Hawker urged judgment as stewards of the
treasury.
Vice-Chair Stoltze favored the lower amounts in the
Amendment, with the ability to extend funding if all went
well.
Representative Crawford thought jobs were the issue and
wanted Alaska to remain competitive.
Vice-Chair Stoltze proposed dividing Amendment #3 into two
parts.
3:05:26 PM
Representative Hawker MOVED to ADOPT new Amendment #3, part
1, lines 5-7. Representative Thomas OBJECTED.
Representative Hawker clarified that the proposed new
amendment changed the base level of subsidization from 30%
of eligible qualified expenditures to 20%.
3:06:51 PM
Co-Chair Chenault MOVED to change part one of new Amendment
#3 to 25%. Representative Gara OBJECTED.
Representative Gara stated that cost is the major reason
films are not being made in Alaska. He argued for the higher
number to give the proposal a chance to work.
Co-Chair Chenault supported starting a new film industry but
was concerned with not knowing for five years. He compared
the issue with new taxes on oil. He urged caution.
3:12:30 PM
Representative Gara reminded the Committee of the expense of
transportation. He proposed accepting 25% with 30% for in-
state transportation and travel provided by an Alaskan
business.
3:14:19 PM
Senator Ellis asserted that going from 30% to 20% would take
Alaska out of competition for films, and 25% would put the
state at the bottom of competitiveness with other states.
Representative Gara REMOVED his OBJECTION. There being NO
further OBJECTION, Amendment #3, part 1, as amended to 25%,
was accepted.
Representative Gara OBJECTED.
A roll call vote was taken on the motion.
IN FAVOR: Thomas, Hawker, Chenault, Meyer
OPPOSED: Crawford, Gara, Joule, Nelson, Stoltze
Absent from the vote: Foster, Kelly
The MOTION FAILED (4/5).
3:18:07 PM
Representative Hawker MOVED Amendment #3, part 2, dropping
the five-year cap from $150 million to $50 million.
Co-Chair Meyer proposed amending part 2 to change the number
to $100 million.
Representative Crawford OBJECTED for DISCUSSION.
Senator Ellis explained that the amounts in the original
bill were open-ended in order to encourage major enterprise.
He added that no other state has a similar cap. He pointed
to other limits already built into the bill such as the time
limit.
3:21:11 PM
Representative Gara asked about caps in other states.
MAX HENSLEY, STAFF, SENATOR JOHNNY ELLIS, explained three
types of caps: per production, an annual appropriations cap,
and cap on the amount covered for wages. He listed the
states that do not have caps. The life-time program cap is
not used in other places.
Co-Chair Meyer offered that the bill could be re-visited if
the cap was reached.
Representative Crawford asserted that the $150 million cap
was already a significant deterrent and a reasonable
compromise. He MAINTAINED his objection.
Representative Thomas stated he supported starting with $100
million and coming back in future.
Representative Hawker supported the amendment to the
Amendment.
3:24:43 PM
Representative Gara urged trying to let it work without too
many constraints and come back later and analyze. He thought
the amendment would hurt the chances of the industry
working.
Senator Ellis pointed out that the program is speculative.
No money is spent until the State gains the benefit. He
encouraged planning ahead and making an investment.
Co-Chair Meyer reiterated that the cap could be adjusted.
Co-Chair Meyer MOVED Amendment #3, part 2 as amended to $100
million.
A roll call vote was taken on the motion.
IN FAVOR: Hawker, Stoltze, Thomas, Chenault, Meyer
OPPOSED: Crawford, Gara, Joule, Nelson
Absent from the Vote: Foster, Kelly
The MOTION PASSED (5/4).
AT EASE 3:30:32 PM
RECONVENE 3:32:07 PM
Representative Hawker explained that the motion before the
Committee was the adoption of Amendment #3, part 2, amended
to $100 million.
Representative Crawford MAINTAINED his OBJECTION.
A roll call vote was taken on the motion.
IN FAVOR: Hawker, Stoltze, Thomas, Meyer, Chenault
OPPOSED: Gara, Joule, Nelson, Crawford
Absent from the Vote: Foster, Kelly
The MOTION PASSED (5/4).
3:34:59 PM
SUZANNE ARMSTRONG, STAFF, CO-CHAIR MEYER, explained the
status of the Amendment. The base subsidy level was still at
30% but the cap was reduced to $100 million.
Vice-Chair Stoltze MOVED to REPORT SB 230 out of Committee
with individual recommendations and attached fiscal notes.
There being NO OBJECTION, it was so ordered.
HCS CS SS SB 230(FIN) was REPORTED out of Committee with a
"do pass" recommendation and with zero fiscal note #3 by the
Department of Revenue and fiscal note #4 by the Department
of Commerce, Community and Economic Development.
CS FOR SENATE BILL NO. 260(STA)
An Act making corrective amendments to the Alaska
Statutes as recommended by the revisor of statutes; and
providing for an effective date.
PAM FINLEY, REVISOR, LEGISLATIVE AFFAIRS AGENCY, introduced
the bill, which makes technical improvements in the
statutes. It makes no policy choices.
Co-Chair Meyer MOVED to ADOPT Amendment #1 (25-LS1022\C.1,
Finley, 4/7/08) (Copy on File):
Page 23, following line 15:
Insert a new bill section to read:
"*Sec.57. The uncodified law of the State of
Alaska is amended by adding a new section to read:
REVISOR'S INSTRUCTION. In reconciling the repeal
of AS 08.01.010(16) in sec. 4 of CSSB 149(L&C),
Twenty-Fifth Alaska State Legislature, and the
repeal and reenactment of AS 08.01.010(16) in sec.
2 of this Act, the revisor of statutes shall
ignore the repeal in CSSB 149(L&C) and give effect
to the repeal and reenactment in sec. 2 of this
Act."
Renumber the following bill section accordingly.
Representative Thomas OBJECTED for DISCUSSION.
Ms. Finley explained the amendment.
3:41:35 PM
Representative Hawker clarified that the Amendment does not
change the substantive consequence of the passage of SB 149.
PUBLIC TESTIMONY CLOSED.
Representative Hawker REMOVED his OBJECTION. There being NO
further OBJECTION, Amendment #1 was adopted.
Vice-Chair Stoltze MOVED to REPORT HCS CS SB 260(FIN) out of
Committee with individual recommendations and the
accompanying fiscal note. There being NO OBJECTION, it was
so ordered.
HCS CS SB 260(FIN) was REPORTED out of Committee with a "do
pass" recommendation and with attached zero fiscal note #1
by Legislative Affairs Agency.
AT EASE 3:44:00 PM
RECONVENE 3:47:13 PM
CS FOR SENATE BILL NO. 285(FIN)
An Act relating to the power and duties of the
Department of Education and Early Development for
improving instructional practices in school districts;
and providing for an effective date.
3:47:28 PM
SENATOR GARY STEVENS, SPONSOR, explained that the bill was
introduced in response to the court case decision of Moore
et. al. vs. State of Alaska, which pertains to the
Legislature fulfilling its constitutional mandate of
overseeing school districts and schools in Alaska. The case
concludes in part that the Legislature is failing this duty
as regards schools with long-standing poor performance.
Senator Stevens said the bill calls for the Department of
Education and Early Development (DEED) to provide direction
to schools that need to increase student achievement,
including making decisions regarding personnel and
expenditures to improve instructional practices.
Representative Hawker stated his support of the bill and
recommended reading Moore vs. State for understanding
education issues.
Vice-Chair Stoltze asked a question about athletic coaches.
Senator Stevens clarified that academic coaches would be
hired to help improve scores.
TIM LAMKIN, STAFF, SENATOR GARY STEVENS, added that it is
not the intent of the bill to have anything to do with
sports coaches.
3:52:26 PM
Co-Chair Chenault OPENED PUBLIC TESTIMONY.
EDDY JEANS, DIRECTOR, SCHOOL FINANCE, DEPARTMENT OF
EDUCATION AND EARLY DEVELOPMENT, stated the Department's
support for the legislation.
Representative Crawford asked for a description of how the
legislation would change things.
Mr. Jeans answered that the legislation provides
clarification in statute that DEED as the Legislature's
agent has the authority to intervene and provide supervision
over school districts. One of the judge's criticisms of the
State during the lawsuit was that utilizing the No Child
Left Behind model, it takes too long for the State to
intervene.
3:55:05 PM
Representative Hawker asked if DEED would intervene at the
individual school level or at the district level when a
school is identified as needing intervention,. Mr. Jeans
answered that the legislation covers both district and
school levels, but all interventions would be through the
district administration, working with the local school
board. The Department would not go directly into a school.
PUBLIC TESTIMONY CLOSED.
Co-Chair Meyer referred to the fiscal note.
Vice-Chair Stoltze MOVED to REPORT HCS CSSB 285(HES) out of
Committee with individual recommendations and the
accompanying fiscal note. There being NO OBJECTION, it was
so ordered.
HCS CSSB 285(HES) was REPORTED out of Committee with a "do
pass" recommendation and with attached fiscal note #1 by the
Department of Education and Early Development and Senate
Letter of Intent.
AT EASE 3:57:45 PM
RECONVENE 7:57:13 PM
CS FOR SENATE BILL NO. 185(STA)(title am)
An Act relating to the central registry of sex
offenders and child kidnappers and to the registration
requirements for sex offenders and child kidnappers;
and providing for an effective date.
Representative Hawker MOVED to ADOPT Amendment #1 (Copy on
File):
Page 3, line 26
Delete "belongs to"
Insert "has been registered by"
Vice-Chair Stoltze OBJECTED for DISCUSSION.
7:59:42 PM
Representative Hawker explained that the Amendment provides
for the Department to confirm whether an address belongs to
a person on the sex offender/child kidnapper register.
SENATOR BILL WIELECHOWSKI, SPONSOR, voiced his support for
the Amendment.
Vice-Chair Stoltze REMOVED his OBJECTION. There being NO
further OBJECTION, Amendment #1 was adopted.
8:02:28 PM
Representative Hawker MOVED to ADOPT Amendment #2 (Copy on
File):
Page 3, line 27 through page 4, line 1
Delete all material
Vice-Chair Stoltze OBJECTED for DISCUSSION.
Representative Hawker explained Amendment #2. The section
being deleted from the bill in its entirely is the provision
that allows the Department of Public Safety (DPS) to provide
the list of the registered email/chat addresses to
commercial internet providers and security firms. The
original purpose of the section was to warn the public.
However, DPS has expressed concerns about publishing the
list. Once the list is out, it cannot be controlled. The
intent of the Amendment is not to weaken the bill, but to
protect the innocent public in situations with similar
addresses.
8:07:23 PM
Senator Wielechowski said he would not object to the
Amendment.
Vice-Chair Stoltze wondered what DPS thought.
LAUREN RICE, LEGISLATIVE LIAISON, DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC
SAFETY, stated that the Department was not opposed to the
Amendment.
Vice-Chair Stoltze WITHDREW his OBJECTION. There being NO
OBJECTION, Amendment #2 was ADOPTED.
Representative Gara clarified that it was more accurate to
say "the internets" than "the internet."
8:10:00 PM
Co-Chair Chenault MOVED to ADOPT Amendment #3 (25-
LS0985\KA.1, Luckhaupt, 3/29/08, Copy on File):
Page 1, line 1, following "kidnappers":
Insert ", to penalties for certain sex offenders,"
Page 2, following line 4:
Insert a new bill section to read:
"*Sec. 2. AS 12.55.015 is amended by adding a new
subsection to read:
(j) In addition to penalties authorized by this
section, the court shall order a defendant
convicted of a violation of AS 11.41.410 -
11.41.440 where the victim of the offense was
under 13 years of age to be subject to electronic
monitoring for the remainder of the person's life
on the person's release from a correctional
facility."
Renumber the following bill sections accordingly.
Page 4, line 4:
Delete "This Act applies"
Insert "Sections 1 and 3 - 5 of this Act apply"
Page 4, following line 7:
Insert a new subsection to read:
"(b) Section 2 of this Act applies to persons
convicted of offenses committed on or after the
effective date of this Act."
Reletter the following subsection accordingly.
Page 4, line 9:
Delete "sec. 3"
Insert "sec. 4"
Representative Gara OBJECTED.
Co-Chair Chenault explained that the Amendment would require
offenders to wear electronic monitoring for the remainder of
their lives if convicted of certain crimes involving
children under the age of 13. He stated his strong feelings
about protecting youth from predators.
AT EASE 8:12:57 PM
RECONVENE 8:13:35 PM
There was a discussion clarifying the details of the
Amendment regarding the ages of the offender and the victim.
Representative Gara questioned whether the State should pay
for electronic monitoring. Co-Chair Chenault stated that
studies show that there is no reform for the offenders. They
tend to re-offend. He thought the cost was not the issue.
8:17:55 PM
Representative Gara proposed that the Amendment might be
appropriate for rape, which is sexual assault in the first
degree. He questioned having lifetime monitoring for other
situations covered by the statutes listed. He thought
although it was a crime for a 16 year old to touch a 12 year
old through their clothing, that deserved a different
punishment. Co-Chair Chenault clarified that the Amendment
was directed at pedophiles that prey on young children.
8:20:47 PM
Representative Nelson asked for an amendment to the
Amendment to exclude non-intercourse consensual touching.
Representative Gara said there was a dividing line in the
statutes between the most serious and least serious
offenses. Sexual assault in the first degree involves
forced, non-consensual penetration. He thought the Amendment
should apply to sexual assault in the first degree with
someone under 13 years old.
Vice-Chair Stoltze stated concerns with putting the word
"consensual" with "12 and under" in the same sentence.
8:23:21 PM
Representative Crawford relayed a personal story of a
relative who got married at age 13. He pointed out that
those possibilities have to be considered. He was
uncomfortable with lifetime monitoring.
Representative Nelson talked about a relative who was
married very young. She was nervous about making a 16-year-
old wear a monitor for life in cases where a mature-seeming
12 year old girl was the aggressor. She wanted the judge to
be able to exercise discretion. She thought sexual predators
of young girls should be monitored.
Representative Gara passed out copies of the statute on
first degree sexual assault.
Representative Kelly asked if there was a clinical
definition of the kind of predators the bill should target.
Co-Chair Chenault suggested child predators convicted of
assault of a certain number of children.
8:28:39 PM
Senator Wielechowski felt the crime described was horrific.
He acknowledged it was an important policy call. He
questioned the fiscal impact and whether the Amendment
addressed the problem of offenders who were committing the
crime in their home. He thought the subject needed a full
discussion in both bodies in another bill.
Representative Hawker spoke to relative values regarding
spending.
Representative Gara referred to the handout on first degree
assault. The sentence for the crime is now a minimum of 20
years and probation for life.
8:32:35 PM
Representative Gara MOVED amendment #1 to Amendment #3, to
have the Amendment apply to violations of AS 11.41.410.
There being NO OBJECTION, it was so ordered.
Representative Hawker was concerned about the cost of
monitoring for life.
Representative Hawker MOVED a conceptual amendment to change
"the person's life" to a period of ten years following their
release from a correctional facility.
Co-Chair Meyer OBJECTED for DISCUSSION.
8:35:49 PM
Senator Wielechowski suggested giving the authority to a
judge. Representative Hawker thought "mandatory 10 and up
to" would allow for flexibility.
Co-Chair Chenault reiterated that the crime is serious
enough to warrant monitoring for the remainder of a person's
life, but he would not object to amending it to ten years.
Representative Hawker suggested a minimum mandatory of 10
years with judge's discretion up to the remainder of a
person's life. Representative Gara questioned how that would
affect a very young offender. Co-Chair Chenault reiterated
his concerns. He told a personal story about child
kidnapping.
8:41:17 PM
Representative Hawker WITHDREW the second conceptual
amendment to Amendment #3.
Representative Hawker MOVED conceptual amendment 3 to
Amendment #3: Monitoring period should be mandatory ten
years following release from correctional facility, and
beyond that up to the remainder of person's life at
discretion of the courts.
Co-Chair Meyer OBJECTED for DISCUSSION.
Representative Gara stated his discomfort with the lack of
information. Representative Crawford agreed. He wanted more
input from the public and more investigation.
Co-Chair Chenault suggested adding Sec. 11.41.434, sexual
abuse of a minor in the first degree.
AT EASE 8:45:16 PM
RECONVENE 9:05:22 PM
Representative Hawker WITHDREW amendment 3 to Amendment #3.
Representative Gara asked for clarification regarding
probation and electronic monitoring.
ANNE CARPENETI, ASSISTANT ATTORNEY GENERAL, LEGAL SERVICES
SECTION-JUNEAU, CRIMINAL DIVISION, DEPARTMENT OF LAW,
explained that sex offenses have high sentencing ranges, up
to 99 years in prison, along with a 25 year maximum period
of probation. The court currently has a great deal of
discretion for sentencing in these crimes. She said it would
be difficult to have electronic monitoring past the period
of probation.
9:08:19 PM
Representative Gara MOVED conceptual amendment 4 to
Amendment #3:
1. Make the new section apply to victims 14 years or
younger; and
2. Give the judge the discretion to impose electronic
monitoring for up to the full length of probation.
Co-Chair Meyer OBJECTED for DISCUSSION.
Co-Chair Chenault agreed that the conceptual amendment
addressed the problem.
Senator Wielechowski supported the conceptual amendment.
Co-Chair Meyer REMOVED his OBJECTION. There being NO
OBJECTION, Amendment #3 as amended was adopted.
Vice-Chair Stoltze MAINTAINED his OBJECTION to Amendment #3.
9:10:43 PM
Representative Joule asked if the earlier decision to have
section (j) apply only to AS 11.41.410 violations still
applied.
Ms. Carpeneti said that was a policy decision. The section
left in referred to the most serious of the sexual assault
prohibitions. She pointed to another unclassified felony in
state sex offenses, sexual abuse of a minor in the first
degree, but that is different type of crime.
Co-Chair Chenault confirmed that AS 11.41.410s addresses his
largest concerns.
9:13:56 PM
Representative Gara reiterated that he did not want to
change the law as it relates to older perpetrators.
Vice-Chair Stoltze REMOVED his OBJECTION to Amendment #3.
There being NO OBJECTION, Amendment #3 was adopted.
Co-Chair Chenault MOVED to ADOPT Amendment #4 (25-
LS0985\KA.2, Luckhaupt, 4/5/08, Copy on File).
Vice-Chair Stoltze wanted to be co-sponsor of the Amendment.
Co-Chair Meyer OBJECTED for DISCUSSION.
Co-Chair Chenault explained Amendment #4 as authorizing
capital punishment for certain crimes committed against
children. He said the Amendment reflected the strength of
his feelings about people who prey upon the weak. It also
authorizes capital punishment for murder in the first degree
and other crimes in the first degree. He told a personal
story of a kidnapping in his family. He did not feel child
molesters could be fixed and he wanted to see them executed.
9:20:15 PM
Senator Wielechowski suggested putting the Amendment in
another crime bill.
Vice-Chair Stoltze related a story of a person who
victimized many children.
Representative Gara acknowledged the seriousness of the
subject and the strength of the amendment sponsor's
convictions. He thought the debate regarding capital
punishment had to be lengthy. He told the story of the
murder of his father when he was six. He thought there were
circumstances where the death penalty applied, but he was
concerned with executing an innocent person who is
erroneously convicted. He wanted to have the dispute at a
different time.
9:25:12 PM
Representative Nelson stated her belief that people who
commit heinous crimes should be punished accordingly. But
people have been accused erroneously, especially poor and
minority people without adequate representation. She pointed
to 120 people who have been exonerated from death row. The
reality of the death penalty poses many other problems and
high costs. The money could be redirected to rehabilitation
programs.
Co-Chair Chenault reiterated his strong belief in the death
penalty. He did not want to put innocent people to death. He
WITHDREW Amendment #4. There being NO OBJECTION, it was so
ordered.
9:30:30 PM
Co-Chair Meyer referred to the fiscal notes, some of which
could change with Amendment #3.
SB 185 was HEARD and HELD in Committee for further
consideration.
