ACTION NARRATIVE
TAPE 94-50, SIDE A
Number 000
CHAIRMAN AL VEZEY called the meeting to order at 5:05 p.m.
Members present were REPRESENTATIVES KOTT, SANDERS, G. DAVIS
and OLBERG. A quorum was present.
HCSCSSB 342 - RISK BASED CAPITAL FOR INSURERS
CHAIRMAN VEZEY opened discussion on HCSCSSB 342. He stated
HCSCSSB 342 had been heard twice before. He has been
waiting for information from the industry to come in,
however, he received very little. He assumed the industry
was neutral. He noted the formula which HCSCSSB 342 deals
with is complex.
REPRESENTATIVE HARLEY OLBERG moved to pass HCSCSSB 342(STA),
version J, from committee with individual recommendations.
(REPRESENTATIVE ULMER joined the meeting at 5:07 p.m.)
CHAIRMAN VEZEY asked the committee secretary to call the
roll.
IN FAVOR: REPRESENTATIVES VEZEY, G. DAVIS, OLBERG,
ULMER.
OPPOSED: REPRESENTATIVES KOTT, SANDERS.
ABSENT: REPRESENTATIVE B. DAVIS.
MOTION PASSED
SB 303 - UNIFORM VOTER REGISTRATION SYSTEM
CHAIRMAN VEZEY opened SB 303 for discussion. He reported he
had done some work on possible alternatives and found it is
quite simple to change Alaska's law to allow people to vote
for congressman just as they currently do for the President.
He felt it was a judgment call as to whether it would be
cheaper to spend the money on litigation or on the extra
paper work to comply with SB 303. He noted there would have
to be a change of title to have an "alternate A" to SB 303,
"and that would require a House Concurrent Resolution with
the Senate."
REPRESENTATIVE FRAN ULMER moved to pass SB 303 from
committee with individual recommendations.
CHAIRMAN VEZEY asked the committee secretary to call the
roll.
IN FAVOR: REPRESENTATIVES VEZEY, KOTT, ULMER, G. DAVIS,
SANDERS.
OPPOSED: REPRESENTATIVE OLBERG.
ABSENT: REPRESENTATIVE B. DAVIS.
REPRESENTATIVE PETE KOTT changed his vote from yea to nay.
REPRESENTATIVE JERRY SANDERS changed his vote from yea to
nay.
REPRESENTATIVE ULMER asked the committee to reconsider SB
303. She commented given what the committee has heard about
the state being out of compliance if the change is not made,
she did not think anymore money should be spent on
litigation. She noted the state has lost the last few
lawsuits it has filed against the federal government. She
referred to it as "mission impossible." Although SB 303 is
not perfect, it is not outrageous or unreasonable. Given
the Administration has tried very hard with SB 303 to not
inconvenience anybody or cost very much, she felt the
committee should go with it.
CHAIRMAN VEZEY noted the vote is currently 3-3. He requires
four votes to move a bill out of committee.
REPRESENTATIVE KOTT changed his vote back from nay to yea.
REPRESENTATIVE OLBERG changed his vote from nay to yea.
CHAIRMAN VEZEY noted final vote.
IN FAVOR: REPRESENTATIVES VEZEY, KOTT, ULMER, G. DAVIS,
OLBERG.
OPPOSED: REPRESENTATIVE SANDERS.
ABSENT: B. DAVIS.
MOTION PASSED
Number 195
