ACTION NARRATIVE
8:13:39 AM
CHAIR BOB LYNN called the House State Affairs Standing Committee
meeting to order at 8:13 a.m. Representatives Gatto, Johnson,
Wilson, Gruenberg, Petersen, and Lynn were present at the call
to order. Representative Seaton arrived as the meeting was in
progress.
HB 241-DIVEST INVESTMENTS IN IRAN
8:13:55 AM
CHAIR LYNN announced that the only order of business was HOUSE
BILL NO. 241, "An Act relating to certain investments of the
Alaska permanent fund, the state's retirement systems, the State
of Alaska Supplemental Annuity Plan, and the deferred
compensation program for state employees in companies that do
business in Iran, and restricting those investments; and
providing for an effective date."
8:14:26 AM
THOMAS REIKER, Staff, Representative Carl Gatto, Alaska State
Legislature, presented HB 241 on behalf of Representative Gatto,
prime sponsor. He said Iran is "actively sponsoring insurgency
on the ground against U.S. soldiers in Iraq."
8:15:40 AM
REPRESENTATIVE P. WILSON moved to adopt the committee substitute
(CS) to HB 241, Version 26-LS0680\E, Kane, 2/8/10, as a work
draft.
REPRESENTATIVE GRUENBERG objected for discussion purposes.
8:16:03 AM
MR. REIKER stated that the bill would make Americans safer by
directing the Department of Revenue to: create a list of
scrutinized companies; divest from publicly traded securities of
those companies; contact the mangers of any comingled
investments in which the state has a stake to strongly encourage
divestment in Iran; and update the list annually and inform the
legislature and the public of any changes to the list. Mr.
Reiker said the bar for significant investment would be set at
$20 million. He said this standard was borrowed from the
federal government's Iran Sanctions Act of 1996, as well as from
various other states' divestment efforts. The funds covered
under the bill would be: the Alaska Permanent Fund, the Alaska
State Retirement System, the Alaska Supplemental Annuity Plan,
and the Alaska Deferred Compensation Program. Regarding the
comingled investments, Mr. Reiker said the bill would encourage
the state's divestment, but would not mandate it. Based on data
from a similar effort by Massachusetts and consideration of the
size of Alaska's aggregate investments, it is estimated that HB
241 could result in approximately $450 million in investment
being pulled from Iran. He stated that the proposed legislation
is not just a symbolic measure, but is "an active stance against
... people that do not have America's best interest at heart."
8:18:59 AM
MR. REIKER relayed that Version E brings language in line with
existing federal statutes, as well as other state statutes, for
example, the use of the term "scrutinized companies" and the
inclusion of a $20 million bar for significant investment. Mr.
Reiker said the language on page 4, lines 1-27, was added to
comply with the Iran Sanctions Act of 1996. Furthermore, the
language on page 5, lines 7-14, was added to insulate the state
against any lawsuits that may emanate out of any lost revenues
resulting from the divestment. Mr. Reiker said the bill would
be negated if the State department ever removes Iran from a list
of state sponsors of terror. It would also be negated if U.S.
Congress or the Executive Branch were ever to officially
recognize that divestment from Iran is contrary to U.S. foreign
policy.
8:20:55 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GATTO mentioned a previous bill to divest from
Sudan because of genocide in Darfur, and he specified that HB
241 has nothing to do with genocide. He said Iran is "awash in
oil" but is producing nuclear material. He opined that it is
scary that Iran is a country that may be able to arm its allies,
particularly because the president of Iran wants to "eliminate
Israel from the face of the earth."
8:23:01 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GATTO said although Iran has oil, it imports
approximately 40 percent its gasoline; therefore, sanctioning
the import of gasoline and other things needed by the country is
a consideration. The proposed legislation is action that can be
taken now, rather than standing by and hoping for the best.
8:25:01 AM
MR. REIKER, in response to a question from Chair Lynn, offered
his understanding that there are approximately 21 other states
with similar legislation.
REPRESENTATIVE GATTO added that his staff will find the list of
states.
8:25:36 AM
REPRESENTATIVE JOHNSON noted that the $20 million threshold has
to do with direct investments in business operations in Iran.
He asked if importing gasoline is a direct investment.
MR. REIKER said he does not think that importing gasoline would
count as the type of significant investment that is targeted by
HB 241. He added, "I think you would actually have to have
holdings in the nation of Iran, not just do trade with them."
In response to a follow-up question, offered his understanding
that none of the significant oil companies doing business in
Alaska have been placed on lists in any other state.
REPRESENTATIVE JOHNSON said he would like to see a list of the
companies in question.
8:28:11 AM
PATRICK GALVIN, Commissioner, Department of Revenue, specified
that he is speaking on behalf of the administration, not in his
capacity as trustee of the Permanent Fund Corporation or the
Alaska Retirement Management (ARM) Board. He said the
Department of Revenue would be responsible for implementing HB
241 if it passes, and he complimented the bill sponsor for
crafting the proposed legislation in a manner that would
substantially eliminate most of the administrative burden that
generally accompanies a divestiture policy; the bill is
structured to allow the department to implement it as a
compliance function.
8:30:14 AM
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON directed attention to language on page 2,
subsections (c) and (d), which outlines that the commissioner
would be required to create and update a list of scrutinized
companies and investigate all publicly traded companies to
figure out if those companies are scrutinized companies, and he
asked Commissioner Galvin if he is really saying that doing this
would not be "significant."
COMMISSIONER GALVIN noted that he had just received Version E
earlier in the morning. Notwithstanding that, he shared his
understanding that the sponsor's intent is that there be minimal
impact to the department. He said he would study the language
to ensure it complies with that intent. He stated his belief
that the bill would allow the department to utilize lists and
previously prepared investigatory materials to satisfy the
standard imposed by statute. He explained that he is speaking
more to the intent than to the language in Version.
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON said he would like the department to make
that analysis of the language in Version E.
8:33:00 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GATTO, in response to CHAIR LYNN, said the next
committee of referral is the House Finance Committee.
8:33:18 AM
COMMISSIONER GALVIN continued his testimony. He stated that
generally the governor would be skeptical of an attempt to mix
state policy with any social or political policy; however, the
governor recognizes that in certain circumstances, it is
necessary for the state, as a member of the Union, to
economically isolate nation states that are troubling to the
national interest of the U.S., particular where there is an
effort to avoid armed conflict through the imposition of
economic sanctions. He said the governor will be reviewing HB
241 to determine if it falls under one of those circumstances.
CHAIR LYNN opined that this issue is more about politics and
national security than it is social.
COMMISSIONER GALVIN said the governor recognizes that this issue
is a matter of national security as well as being related to the
advancement of the country's foreign policy.
8:35:16 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GATTO said quite a few of the weapons that show
up in Afghanistan and Pakistan are made in Iran. He opined that
the last thing Alaska should be doing is supporting Iran, and
investing in the country is supporting that country. He
characterized the bill as a moral obligation.
8:37:38 AM
MICHAEL BURNS, Executive Director, Alaska Permanent Fund
Corporation, , in response to Chair Lynn, stated that the board
of the corporation has a long-standing position against
divestment related to social investing. He said the board has
not talked about HB 241 and, thus, does not have a position
regarding the bill. He observed that the proposed legislation
is different from the aforementioned past legislation regarding
Sudan divestiture, and he confirmed that the board did narrowly
support the past legislation regarding Sudan. He concurred with
Chair Lynn's previous opinion that HB 241 is an issue of
politics and national security.
8:40:01 AM
REPRESENTATIVE PETERSEN noted that there is a zero fiscal note
attached to the proposed legislation, but he questioned whether
there may be a charge related to selling stocks, as well as a
possible consequence to the state of a loss of revenue.
MR. BURNS responded that at times the board has looked at
trading expenses. He stated, "I'm not sure that we have
anything that would rise to the $23 million threshold." He
added, "I just don't see that being part of our portfolio, but I
haven't seen the list either."
8:41:30 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GATTO asked if the corporation might consider
divestiture without legislation in response to "downward
pressure on that group of investments" resulting from the action
that 21 states have already taken in establishing divestiture.
MR. BURNS said he does not know the answer to that.
REPRESENTATIVE GATTO said he is speaking philosophically. He
said he would expect that the action of some in divesting might
create pressure in others to do the same.
MR. BURNS responded that "might" is the operative word there.
8:43:12 AM
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON directed attention to language in Section
1, subsection (j), paragraph (1), subparagraph (B), sub-
subparagraph (v), which says business operations, under the
proposed legislation, would not include operations that "consist
of the retail sale of gasoline and related products". He
questioned how companies selling gasoline or diesel fuel would
be tracked to arrive at an end-point control of retail sale, and
he asked if such companies would automatically be put on the
aforementioned list.
COMMISSIONER GALVIN responded that he would need to return with
a full analysis. Notwithstanding that, he proffered that the
structure of the bill would not "capture a situation" in which a
producer refines a gasoline product that is then sold to a
company outside of Iran and subsequently transported into Iran
by that second company and sold. He offered his understanding
that the company that makes the final sale in Iran would be the
company that would "end up falling into this category."
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON said he wants to know what kind of chain
of ownership the commissioner would be required to follow.
COMMISSIONER GALVIN relayed that he will be examining whether a
company would be responsible for its subsidiary companies, and
he said he would get back to the committee with his conclusions.
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON remarked that a subsidiary company could
"totally circumvent" the intent of the bill.
8:48:46 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GATTO relayed that even though Iran has more
difficulty making gasoline, it has refineries and does produce
fuel products, which is why the reference to "gasoline and
related products" is in the bill.
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON said he would like clarification of the
definition of "related products".
8:50:31 AM
SARAH STEELMAN, testified on behalf of herself in support of HB
241. She related that she is the former state treasurer of
Missouri, started "terror-free investing" in Missouri, served on
the board of trustees to the State of Missouri's pension plan,
and is now the advisor to a private "terror-free portfolio
fund." Ms. Steelman stated that when she took office as state
treasurer, she was shocked to discover that "we are funding the
very enemies that we are fighting" through investments worth
billions of dollars and to learn that her predecessor had been
using foreign companies as brokers/dealers to invest the state's
money. This information spurred her to begin a battle in
Missouri to stop taxpayer funding of terrorism. Missouri
commenced the first terror-free fund in the country; any country
that did business with a sponsor of terrorism was screened out
of the portfolio. She stated that those involved in this change
proved to the pension fund managers who were skeptical about the
returns that the state could make equivalent returns on
investment by keeping the same allocations and by increasing
holdings in "clean" companies. The state exercised a complete
prohibition on companies doing business with terrorist-
sponsoring nations and companies. The State of Missouri set up
the nation's first terrorism screening policy and divestment
procedure for a public pension fund, offered the first "terror-
free" mutual fund in the state's college savings plan, and
hosted a summit to educate police and firefighters about the
fact that their pension plans may be funding the very people who
end up attacking the country. She said she also encouraged
every state treasurer across the country to examine their
portfolios and make divestments.
MS. STEELMAN said in the last five years, many states have
adopted similar policies, and she applauded the Alaska State
Legislature for hearing HB 241. She related that both sides of
U.S. Congress have passed legislation increasing the sanctions
against Iran. The threat posed by Iran has escalated with
Iran's ability to obtain nuclear weapons, as well as with its
direct threats against America and Israel. She listed Siemens
AG and Nokia as examples of companies that help the Iranian
revolutionary guard silence the voice of the Iranian people
through monitoring and censoring the people's ability to
communicate with the Western world.
8:55:47 AM
MS. STEELMAN said Missouri heard many arguments against this
from its fund managers, but they were unfounded. Some of those
arguments were that the cost is too high, the task is too
difficult, and performance will suffer; however, Ms. Steelman
warned that the cost is too high if nothing is done. She opined
that it is the responsibility of every American to ensure he/she
does not invest in companies that support terror. She reported
that Empowerment Financial Group offers a "terror-free"
portfolio. She opined that no American dollar should ever end
up in "the hand of terror."
MS. STEELMAN, regarding a previous query [from Representative
Johnson] regarding which oil companies doing business with
Alaska may be on the list, named the French company, Total SA.
She said PetroChina Company Limited just signed a $1.76 zillion
oil pact with Iran. She offered her understanding that Royal
Dutch Shell was operating in Iran, and she indicated that BP had
been operating with Iran, but is no longer.
8:59:02 AM
DAVID GOTTSTEIN, testified on behalf of himself during the
hearing on HB 241. He relayed that he is the Alaska chair of
the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which he described
as "an American advocacy group that tries to foster good
relations between the United States and Israel - America's
staunchest strategic ally and the only true democracy in the
Middle East."
MR. GOTTSTEIN read his testimony as follows:
The United States, along with The West, is under
attack by Radical Islam. Those trying to convert us
or to destroy our way of life are using every means at
their ... disposal to attack us in their Holy War
against us. Terrorist incidents seem to be reported
almost weekly from around the world, almost all rooted
in Radical Islam - not ordinary Islam, but Radical
Islam - that unfortunately controls most of the Muslim
world. Recent arrests in Houston, Denver, and
Brooklyn these last few months alone, along with the
Fort Hood massacre, and now the Christmas Day thwarted
airline suicide attempt, all point to the fact that we
are under siege even on American soil. Even though Al
Qaeda, the Taliban, and the other Radical Islamic
movements spreading terror and death across the Middle
East and Asia, are a loose collection
organizationally, they all embrace jihad, or Holy War,
against the West, and that makes their collective
arsenal deadly and sizable.
At the heart of the Radical Islamic movement, and the
most dangerous, is Iran. That is because the
intersection of their vast oil wealth controlled by a
Radical Islamic government ... determined to develop
nuclear weapons has allowed them to become dangerously
close to completing their decades-long march to join
the nuclear club. Almost every week, including this
week, ... we hear about their progress. The prospects
of a nuclear Iran, capable of launching
intercontinental ballistic missiles as far away as
Europe, with Israel clearly in its sights, and the
danger of them spreading weapons to their allies,
along with for sure starting a nuclear arms race in
the region, all has to be balanced against the far
reaching negative consequences should military action
need to be used to derail Iran's weapons program. The
only good outcome is that we get Iran to change their
behavior and stop weapons development.
... Our arsenal of tools to cause that change
include[s] diplomacy, sanctions, blockades, and then
military action. Diplomacy hasn't, and isn't likely
to work. That leaves sanctions as the appropriate
tool at this time: a peaceful approach. Sanctions
have in the past had mixed results for sure; however,
recent revelations about the advancement and state of
Iran's nuclear weapons program necessitate our using
all peaceful means possible to solve the problem
before having to consider harsher actions. The hope
is that a collection of enhanced sanctions, including
State divestitures, and the passage of the Iran
Sanctions Act passed just two weeks ago at the Federal
level, intended to thwart an already weak economy,
including the importation of refined petroleum
products, representing 40 percent of their domestic
fuel use, might push the rulers to change their
behavior.
9:03:52 AM
MR. GOTTTSTEIN diverged from his written testimony to discuss
the two distinct Acts in Congress that were combined: the
Divestiture Program that was in the Iran Sanctions Act, first
passed in 1996; and the Iran Refined Petroleum Sanctions Act,
which was an attempt to limit the importation of refined
products into Iran. Now that both are passed, President Barack
Obama has the authority to take measures, such as declaring that
it is illegal to insure fuel tankers that are bringing refined
products to Iran. The divestiture, he explained, has to do with
companies that are engaged in the development and enhancement of
the Iranian regime's ability to garner money through the
enhancement of that country's oil fields; it has nothing to do
with the importation of the refined products. He said the only
impact to the State of Alaska would be that "one day the state
would own shares in a company and the next day it wouldn't."
Transaction costs would be minimal. It would not change any
relationship that "the state or any other third party would have
with that company," he said.
9:05:56 AM
MR. GOTTSTEIN returned to his written testimony, which he read
as follows:
During a period of intense public pressure as a result
of [the] stolen election last June, there is an
extraordinary opportunity to influence things
positively and hopefully avoid the need for a
discussion about military options. President
Amahdinejad, a self-proclaimed holocaust denier,
clearly has in his sights the wiping of Israel off the
face of the planet, which, if he were to try and
accomplish through nuclear means, would have
devastating and calamitous economic consequences
worldwide as the oil rich Middle East would turn into
a firestorm.
As respected legislators, you are most often consumed
by the onslaught of requests you get from
constituents, groups, and colleagues - especially
during the shortened legislative session - all of
which pretty much have to do with local and/or
statewide issues. Seldom, however, are you asked to
grapple with national issues. But today is different.
Today you have the opportunity to join in the most
serious war effort since the defeat of the Nazis and
the Soviet Union, by joining forces with all our men
and women in uniform who are deeply engaged in the war
against Radical Islam and their tactics of terror.
Twenty other states have already directed their
investment pools [to divest from international
companies that are engaged in Iranian oil and gas
development].
9:07:03 AM
MR. GOTTSTEIN asked the committee to support legislature calling
for the divestiture of stocks within the Permanent Fund, as well
as the Budget Reserve Account, the latter of which he said is
not addressed in HB 241. He said the proposed legislation would
protect fiduciaries from deviating from rules regarding unbiased
investing. He opined that it is critical to U.S. national
security.
9:08:33 AM
CHAIR LYNN, after ascertaining that there was no one else to
testify, closed public testimony.
9:08:54 AM
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON said he thinks that in some respects this
issue is beyond the committee's level of expertise. For
example, he said he wants to ensure that the committee does not
indict an entire religion.
CHAIR LYNN said radical Islam is the issue, and he expressed
concern about national survival. He stated that the issue
before the committee is to figure out what Alaska can do to add
to national security, and divestiture is one step.
9:11:08 AM
REPRESENTATIVE JOHNSON stated concern that the proposed
legislation would not have much effect and is merely a "feel-
good" bill. He opined that to have an effect, Alaska must quit
doing business with the companies that do business with Iran,
not just divest from those companies. Notwithstanding that,
Representative Johnson said if the committee can do a little bit
of good it should, and he said he would not hold up the bill.
In response to Chair Lynn, he said he would be behind the bill
if he thought it would increase national security, but he does
not think it will do harm.
9:12:42 AM
REPRESENTATIVE PETERSEN said he has long supported nuclear
nonproliferation; therefore, he will support the bill even if
there is only a chance that divestiture will help.
9:13:21 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GRUENBERG said he wants to see the bill move
along.
9:13:35 AM
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON echoed Representative Johnson's point that
it is questionable how much good the bill would do in asking the
state to divest from certain companies while continuing to have
business contacts with those companies. He said he hopes the
committee will receive more information on the questions that
have been raised.
9:15:02 AM
REPRESENTATIVE JOHNSON questioned if doing business with
companies on the watch list makes the State of Alaska a
candidate for the watch list.
9:15:35 AM
REPRESENTATIVE P. WILSON observed that out of 36 companies on
the list, 9 are based in Malaysia and 6 in China. She indicated
that the committee needs to give more thought to where the
companies are located. She said the State of Alaska partners
with many companies, and she wants to know what the
ramifications of the bill may be on those partnerships.
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON reviewed the information that had been
requested thus far. He said he is not opposing the
consideration of HB 241, but wants the information for
consideration.
9:19:06 AM
COMMISSIONER GALVIN, in response to Chair Lynn, estimated that
he could have the requested information available for the
committee in a week.
9:19:35 AM
CHAIR LYNN, in response to Representative Gruenberg, said he
does not want to entertain questions related to the
aforementioned past legislation on divestiture from Darfur.
9:20:52 AM
CHAIR LYNN ascertained from the bill drafter that legal opinions
would be available in about a week.
9:21:31 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GATTO said he thinks there is no end to the
number of details to research. He emphasized that two-thirds of
those serving in the military are killed by "improvised
explosive devices" that are manufactured in Iran. That alone,
he opined, is enough of a reason [to support HB 241]. He said
the bill is not intended as a way to destroy Iran, but it would
do something toward preventing the losses the U.S. is
experiencing. He encouraged the committee to pass the
legislation now and revisit it if it turns out to be
ineffective; however, he predicted that the result of the
proposed legislation would be helpful rather than hurtful. He
asked each legislator to think about whether or not he/she would
be willing to not value a stock that supports a terrorist
organization.
9:25:22 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GATTO, in response to Representative Gruenberg,
indicated that Version E would make the bill "easier" as it
relates to the investments of corporations.
REPRESENTATIVE GRUENBERG removed his objection to the motion to
adopt the committee substitute (CS) for HB 241, Version 26-
LS0680\E, Kane, 2/8/10, before the committee as work draft. [No
further objection was stated, and Version E was treated as
before the committee.]
REPRESENTATIVE GATTO asked the committee to question why BP and
Total SA would remove their investments in Iran if divestiture
had no effect.
9:26:15 AM
REPRESENTATIVE PETERSEN said the reason could be political;
however, he suggested one reason may be that it may be dangerous
for employees to be working in Iran.
The committee took an at-ease from 9:27:17 AM to 9:27:28 AM.
9:27:35 AM
CHAIR LYNN expressed his basic support of the proposed
legislation.
9:28:22 AM
CHAIR LYNN announced that HB 241 was held over.
9:29:17 AM
