ACTION NARRATIVE
8:02:02 AM
CHAIR BOB LYNN called the House State Affairs Standing Committee
meeting to order at 8:02 a.m. Representatives Keller, Seaton,
Wilson, Johansen, Petersen, and Lynn were present at the call to
order.
8:04:28 AM
CHAIR LYNN relayed the story of his gavel, which originally
belonged to his grandmother.
8:06:41 AM
CHAIR LYNN introduced new and returning committee members and
invited them to say a few words.
HB 21-SUICIDE PREVENTION COUNCIL MEMBERS
8:08:18 AM
CHAIR LYNN announced that the first order of business was HOUSE
BILL NO. 21, "An Act relating to the membership of the Statewide
Suicide Prevention Council."
8:08:20 AM
REPRESENTATIVE ANNA FAIRCLOUGH, Alaska State Legislature,
introduced HB 21 as joint prime sponsor. She stated that she
and Representative Berta Gardner are members of the State
Suicide Prevention Council. She directed attention to a handout
in the committee packet entitled, "Mending the Net: Suicide
Prevention in Alaska," the annual report for fiscal year 2010
(FY 10) from the council. As shown on page 11 of the report,
Representative Fairclough stated that suicide is one of the top
ten causes of death in Alaska. Page 20, she said, describes a
public health model emphasizing community readiness, planning
efforts, and outcomes, with an emphasis on community
collaboration.
8:09:51 AM
REPRESENTATIVE BERTA GARDNER, Alaska State Legislature, as joint
prime sponsor, highlighted the changes in the proposed committee
substitute, (CS) for HB 21, Version 27-LS0154\B, Bullard,
1/22/11. First, the proposed CS would require someone to serve
on the council who brings experience from a military
perspective, either as someone currently in service, a retiree,
or someone who has worked with military personnel.
8:11:11 AM
REPRESENTATIVE KELLER moved to adopt the proposed committee
substitute (CS) for HB 21, Version 27-LS0154\B, Bullard,
1/22/11, as a work draft. There being no objection, Version B
was before the committee.
8:11:30 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GARDNER noted that the second change proposed in
Version B would change the requirement of a youth serving on the
council from being in grade 9, 10, 11, or 12, to being "at least
16 years or age but not more than 20 years of age" when
appointed. She explained that with this change, somebody who
has just graduated from high school, but is, perhaps, just
becoming comfortable in his/her ability to speak out as a
council member, would be able to serve.
8:12:20 AM
REPRESENTATIVE FAIRCLOUGH noted that Chair Lynn had, some time
before the meeting, expressed concern that the use of the term
"active military personnel" found in the original bill version
was ambiguous. She noted that Version B specifies that the term
means, for example, that the National Guard would be included.
CHAIR LYNN made the distinction that the National Guard works
for the state, except when commandeered by the President of the
United States, in which case National Guard members are working
for the federal government.
8:13:44 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GARDNER, in response to a question from Chair
Lynn, indicated that the results of despair and depression are
the same, irrespective of their origins. She said, "It's hard
to tease out exactly which threads lead to which behaviors, but
there's no doubt that Alaska has leading numbers in all of those
areas: alcohol abuse, domestic violence, sexual assault, and
suicide."
CHAIR LYNN offered his view that solving the problem of sexual
violence, alcohol abuse, and child abuse would result in a
decrease in the suicide rate.
8:14:44 AM
REPRESENTATIVE FAIRCLOUGH directed attention to page 10 of the
aforementioned report, which states that of the 33 percent of
those whose death was caused by suicide who were tested for
drugs and/or alcohol, 44 percent tested positive for alcohol and
48 percent tested positive for other drugs. She talked about
the link between a lack of hope and the occurrence of suicide.
8:15:54 AM
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON expressed appreciation of the suicide
prevention efforts that are being made. He said the House
Health and Social Services Standing Committee has been talking
about vitamin D therapy for people living in areas that don't
get much light, and he said that that therapy is more effective
than light therapy. He said he looks forward to working with
the council in the future, and expressed his wish that the
council look at the issues more broadly.
8:17:56 AM
REPRESENTATIVE P. WILSON said she is pleased at the addition of
language related to military personnel. She indicated that
suicides spike [between the ages of 15-24], and she said 23 and
24 are the ages at which many of those who have served in the
military come back home. She also expressed surprise to have
read on page 9 of the report that another group with a high rate
of suicide is that of people 85 and older.
8:19:17 AM
REPRESENTATIVE FAIRCLOUGH highlighted that in 2009, 140
individuals [in Alaska] committed suicide. She further related
that between 2000 and 2009, 1,369 took their own lives. She
talked about the impact suicide has on communities. She stated
that although the number of suicides in Anchorage is high, the
per capita ratio of suicides is considerably higher in rural
areas; therefore, she warned the committee members not to jump
to conclusions reading just part of the statistics. She
reemphasized the observation made by Representative Wilson that
the suicide rate is higher for the young and the elderly, and
she suggested the high rate of elderly suicides may be in
response to life-limiting diseases.
REPRESENTATIVE FAIRCLOUGH said she and Representative Gardner
are honored to be working on this task. She said the council
needs the support of the legislature, and she noted that there
is a $4,000 fiscal note [included in the committee packet]. She
related that the council attempts to "get out into rural Alaska"
at least once a year, because those communities are experiencing
suicide rates 2-6 times the national average.
8:21:07 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GARDNER pointed out that there are instances
where people die and it is not clear whether or not the cause of
death was suicide. She emphasized the value in hearing the
stories from people in rural Alaska first-hand. She said that
doing so opens discussion of a subject that previously may have
been taboo. In response to a question from Chair Lynn, she
reiterated that the common denominator of suicide is despair and
the inability to believe that a bad situation can get better.
8:23:01 AM
REPRESENTATIVE FAIRCLOUGH directed attention to information on
page 8 of the aforementioned report, which states that suicide
rates among Alaska Natives are higher than of any other
ethnicity in the state, and are the highest of any ethnicity in
the U.S. She recollected having read that that percentage
increases further for Native Alaskan boys. She stressed the
importance of prevention and building skills to help young
people cope with, for example, a failed relationship. She said
village elders are getting involved in the effort to build
relationships between youth and elders. She said the first step
is talking about suicide and hearing from those who have been
affected by it. In response to Chair Lynn, she concurred that
an entire community can be affected by the suicide of one of its
members.
8:25:12 AM
REPRESENTATIVE KELLER expressed appreciation to Representatives
Fairclough and Gardner for the work they are doing. He then
directed attention to page 16, which shows funding, and he
observed that "the funding doesn't follow the rate."
8:25:53 AM
REPRESENTATIVE FAIRCLOUGH explained that in a community, the
involvement of individuals sometimes makes a bigger impact than
money. The goal, she said, is to use the money to create a
synergy inside of communities to bring all resources to the
table. Each community's situation is unique, she added.
8:27:07 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GARDNER observed that there are some communities
that seem to be awaiting advice and assistance, while other
communities recognize that there is a problem and that the
solution comes from within the community. She echoed
Representative Fairclough's comment that money is not always the
answer. She said money can pay for training, but there is a lot
of work that can be done locally, and the council hopes to be "a
gathering point" to get that process started through discussion.
8:28:19 AM
REPRESENTATIVE JOHANSEN directed attention to page 12 of report,
which shows the percentage of U.S. Census area deaths attributed
to suicide from 2000-2008. He asked if there are areas of
Alaska that more closely match the national average.
8:29:24 AM
REPRESENTATIVE FAIRCLOUGH estimated that 3 percent of Alaska
falls within the national range, and said the exact answer is in
the report.
REPRESENTATIVE JOHANSEN surmised that the council must be
concentrating its efforts on the areas with the highest suicide
rates. He asked if former Representative Woody Salmon has been
replaced on the board. He then asked how rural areas "get into
the conversation."
8:31:04 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GARDNER said she is not sure how to answer that
question, because the board's membership is not filled based on
district, but rather based on requirements in statute. She
emphasized that the perspective of the board is that one suicide
is too many, and its members will try to reduce the number of
suicides in Alaska no matter what the national average is.
REPRESENTATIVE FAIRCLOUGH listed entities from which people are
serving: the Advisory Board on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse, the
Alaska Mental Health Board, the Alaska Federation of Natives, a
counselor or someone from secondary schools, a youth, someone
who has experienced the death by suicide [of a family member], a
person from a rural community not connected by roads, a member
of clergy, a person who is under the age of 18, [and one public
member]. She offered examples and names. She noted that the
members will be in Juneau on January 30 - February 2, and will
be visiting legislators in the capitol.
8:34:18 AM
REPRESENTATIVE GARDNER, in response to a question from
Representative Petersen, said the council has not studied what
other nations in northern climates are doing regarding this
issue; however, she said she thinks other nations are looking at
what Alaska is doing.
8:34:51 AM
REPRESENTATIVE P. WILSON observed that even though data may look
good, the problem still persists. She explained that the graph
on page 12 of the report shows her community in a good light,
but the statistics only go through 2008, and just last month
there were two suicides.
8:36:05 AM
KATE BURKHART, Executive Director, Advisory Board on Alcoholism
& Drug Abuse; Executive Director, Alaska Mental Health Board
(AMHB), Division of Behavioral Health (DBH), Department of
Health & Social Services, testified in support of HB 21. She
stated that the proposed legislation is a direct reflection of
the council's determination to respond to public comment. She
said the council held a meeting in Fairbanks in October 2010, at
which time it heard passionate testimony from young people.
That is one reason that the council wants to augment the youth
member requirement in statute. She emphasized that the council
considers itself responsible to the citizens of Alaska and
really listens to what the public has to say.
8:38:56 AM
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON expressed appreciation for the ideas that
have been brought forward and stated support of the idea that
young people can be effective in the process. He credited a new
legislator, Representative Alan Dick, for bringing energy from
rural Alaska. He questioned whether the education system
prepares young people for diversity and leaving their villages.
He suggested that education that is relevant to students may
help in eliminating despair, and he opined that the council
should be part of that discussion.
8:40:34 AM
REPRESENTATIVE JOHANSEN stated support of the changes proposed
in Version B, and expressed appreciation that the joint prime
sponsors have continued the work that former Representative
Richard Halford began in 2001. He opined that extending the age
requirement of the youth member to 20 will be helpful, because
the time in a young person's life when he/she is just out of
high school can present choices that can be overwhelming and
lead to despair. He mentioned there are many military bases in
Alaska, and indicated that the addition of language in Version B
to include the military is a good idea.
8:42:06 AM
REPRESENTATIVE WILSON moved to report the proposed committee
substitute (CS), Version 27-LS0154\B, Bullard, 1/22/11, out of
committee with individual recommendations and the accompanying
fiscal notes. There being no objection, CSHB 21(STA) was
reported out of the House State Affairs Standing Committee.
HB 14-EXEC ETHICS: LEGAL FEES/FAMILY TRAVEL
8:42:42 AM
CHAIR LYNN announced that the last order of business was HOUSE
BILL NO. 14, "An Act authorizing state agencies to pay private
legal fees and costs incurred by persons exonerated of alleged
Alaska Executive Branch Ethics Act violations; allowing certain
public officers and former public officers to accept state
payments to offset private legal fees and costs related to
defending against an Alaska Executive Branch Ethics Act
complaint; and creating certain exceptions to Alaska Executive
Branch Ethics Act limitations on the use of state resources to
provide or pay for transportation of spouses and children of the
governor and the lieutenant governor."
8:43:02 AM
GRETCHEN STAFT, Staff, Representative Max Gruenberg, Alaska
State Legislature, presented HB 14 on behalf of Representative
Gruenberg, sponsor. She stated that HB 14 would put in statute
the attorney general's proposed regulations [establishing
standards regarding legal fees resulting from ethics violation
accusations and payment of travel expenses for families of the
lieutenant governor and governor]. She said the proposed
legislation would address "the appearance of impropriety"
related to the executive branch creating its own regulations.
MS. STAFT offered a sectional analysis of HB 14. She noted that
on page 2, line 10, there is a stylistic change from "partisan
political purposes" to "partisan political purpose". Also in
Section 1, the definition of partisan political purposes is
deleted from page 2, lines 14-23. Ms. Staft pointed out that in
Section 2, on page 2, line 25, there is a change that conforms
with that in Section 1, such that "partisan political purposes"
is changed to "partisan political purpose". Ms. Staft related
that Section 3 addresses the issue of resources used for
transporting the spouse or child of a governor or lieutenant
governor. She said the attorney general defines a "child" as a
minor, while HB 14 defines "child" [on page 3, lines 7-10, which
read as follows]:
a biological child, an adoptive child, or a stepchild
of the governor or lieutenant governor and is under 19
years of age or, without regard to age, is dependent
on the governor or lieutenant governor for care
because of a physical or mental disability.
MS. STAFT stated that under HB 14, state resources could be used
by the governor or lieutenant governor to pay for family travel
in two ways. First, the governor or lieutenant governor could
travel with the family member and subsequently reimburse the
state. Second, the governor or lieutenant governor would be
able to use state funds toward a family member's travel expenses
is that travel expense is seen to be; and if the attendance of
the person is of benefit to the state. The situations in which
the latter would be considered are enumerated on page 3, lines
15-29.
8:48:54 AM
MS. STAFT directed attention to Section 4, regarding ethics
violations, and said under HB 14, the state would be authorized
to reimburse a state employee who was recused after being
charged with an ethics violation. Currently the state can pay
the ongoing fees before the employee is exonerated. She said
the sponsor thinks that it is a better idea to wait until the
person is exonerated before the state puts forth those fees.
She said the funds could only be put forward by a state agency
that may lawfully put forth that payment. Ms. Staft then
related that Section 4 also contains definitions for
"exonerated" and "fees and costs of private legal
representation", beginning on page 4, line 22, through page 5,
line 3. She drew attention to Section 5, on page 5, lines 6-8,
which shows that the bill, if adopted, would not be retroactive.
8:51:57 AM
MS. STAFT, in response to a question from Chair Lynn, said she
does not know the cost of an ethics violation for which the
alleged offender is later exonerated. She offered to find out,
but also deferred to Judy Bockmon, an assistant attorney general
with the Department of Law.
8:53:16 AM
MS. STAFT, in response to questions from Representative Seaton
regarding the details behind exoneration, offered her
understanding that the attorneys for the employee would have to
keep detailed records of "hourly expenditures on each issue."
Therefore, if three ethics claims were brought against a person
and two of those claims were dismissed, then that person could
recover whatever legal fees and costs were incurred as a result
of the two exonerated claims brought against him/her. She said
the onus would be on the employee and his legal council to
identify the purpose of the fees and to show when those fees
were incurred.
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON said he does not think the wording in bill
makes that clear. He requested more details from the sponsor.
8:56:00 AM
MS. STAFT, in response to Chair Lynn, said she is not aware of
any discussion having taken place regarding the possibility of
requiring reimbursement from a complainant when an ethics
violation claim does not result in an ethics violation. She
said she would ask the sponsor about that issue.
8:58:11 AM
REPRESENTATIVE KELLER observed that the bill does not seem to
address the issue of excessive accusations, and he asked if the
sponsor predicts an increase in accusations in the future. He
explained that he is curious why the bill is being brought
forward. He directed attention to page 4, beginning line 22, to
the definition of "exonerated". He opined that this sentence
seems to give too much power to the courts to give corrective
action that would undo intent. He said he would like feedback
from the sponsor on that issue.
9:00:30 AM
MS. STAFT said she will speak to the sponsor about that. In
response to another question, she offered her understanding that
the statutes listed in the bill are the only ones tied to the
proposed legislation.
9:01:42 AM
REPRESENTATIVE P. WILSON, regarding the reimbursement of "fair
market value of the person's transportation", observed that the
cost of a seat on a commercial airline would be easy to
calculate, while it would not cost any more for the governor,
for example, to bring one or two family members with him on a
state-owned plane.
CHAIR LYNN added that that same idea may apply to travel on
military aircraft to a military function.
9:02:49 AM
MS. STAFT offered her understanding that such scenarios would be
covered under HB 14, and she said she would confirm that for the
committee at a future meeting.
9:04:51 AM
MS. STAFT, in response to a question from Representative Keller,
confirmed that the only regulatory change proposed in Section 3
is the definition of child, and that the purpose is to eliminate
the appearance of impropriety.
9:06:43 AM
MS. STAFT, in response to a question from Representative Seaton
regarding the term "necessarily incurred" on page 4, line 31,
said there would be an inquiry into whether a fee or cost was
necessarily incurred. She stated, "The burden would be on the
employee and legal council to prove that, but basically we're
looking at industry standards."
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON requested the sponsor get a legal opinion
to accompany the bill packet.
9:08:21 AM
JUDY BOCKMON, Assistant Attorney General, State Ethics Attorney,
Opinions, Appeals, & Ethics, Civil Division (Anchorage),
Department of Law (DOL), echoed Ms. Staft's comments that
currently there are regulations in place regarding the two
topics covered in HB 14. She said the difference is that the
bill addresses statute, whereas regulations are "setting
standards to interpret the act." Regarding Chair Lynn's
previous query as to how much money the state has spent in
defending ethics complaints regarding the governor, she said she
does not know. She noted that former Governor Sarah Palin "has
defended herself." She said there have not been other instances
where council has been hired for another governor or a
lieutenant governor or other state officer other than in one
circumstance in the last couple years, and in that situation the
person was not exonerated. She added that the administration
has, through its risk management system, done some
representation of state officers; however, she indicated she
does not know if any of that was done under the Ethics Act. She
said Governor Palin's situation aside, during the last ten
years, "the number of cases in which there has been defense
council ... has been relatively small."
9:11:24 AM
MS. BOCKMON, in response to a prior question from Representative
Seaton regarding apportionment of a claim, said regulation
requires that the public officer provide clear documentation
that the expenses were limited to the violation for which the
officer was exonerated. Regarding the term "necessarily
incurred", she said there is a practice of review in a court
system for attorneys' fees requests. She continued as follows:
In addition to the comment regarding ... clear
evidence that it relates to the exonerated claim, we
extended our regulation on ... reasonable expenses
necessarily incurred ... to include evaluation of
complexity, the rate charge, the hours extended, the
relationship between the amount of work performed and
the significance of the claim, and several ... other
relevant factors depending on the circumstance. So, I
think that ... what is certainly contemplated is that
when a person makes a claim for reimbursement or
payment of their attorney's fees, the request will be
examined for reasonableness to ensure that these were
necessarily incurred in the language of the
[regulations] and the proposed statute, and that ...
if it's a situation where there are multiple claims
and there's a basis for separating out claims on which
a representative's been exonerated from perhaps
another violation, we'll be able to do so.
9:13:55 AM
MS. BOCKMON, regarding Representative Keller's previous question
about corrective action, referred to the language in the bill
addressing dismissals [in Section 4, subparagraph (A)] and the
statutes listed there. She indicated that [AS 39.52.310(d)]
addresses the initial review stage, [AS 39.52.320] addresses
dismissal for finding no probable cause after an investigation,
and [AS 39.52.370(d)] addresses dismissal after public hearing
by the board. She mentioned [AS 39.52.370(f), in subparagraph
(B), which addresses dismissals following an appeal], and [AS
39.52.330, in subparagraph (C), which addresses an allegation
"resolved solely with a recommendation for preventive action"].
Ms. Bockmon continued as follows:
And so, the definition of exonerated is intended -
both in the regulations and in Representative
Gruenberg's bill - to cover all of those situations in
which we could ... end up with something other than
simply a clean dismissal and finding of no ...
violation. And the contemplation would be [that]
these would not be available in any situation where
the matter was not cleanly dismissed. That is if we
come to terms to settle on some corrective action -
which is what most often happens when there is a
violation - that would not mean exoneration, even
though a person may not admit to a violation.
9:16:45 AM
MS. BOCKMON, in response to Chair Lynn, said the department has
not looked at [recovering fees from the complainant if there is
an exoneration], and she said she did not know if it would be
possible to do so under current statute.
9:18:21 AM
REPRESENTATIVE SEATON recalled a past bill that proposed a
$5,000 fine if a filed ethics complaint was later dismissed. He
stated that the issue is whether the public would be discouraged
to file for fear of a potential huge bill if the ethics
complaint is found in favor of the defendant.
9:19:54 AM
REPRESENTATIVE PETERSEN pointed out that in a situation in which
a person or group has filed a complaint that turns out to be
valid, that person or group has often put forth a lot of money
and is not reimbursed. He said the bill does not address that
issue.
9:20:35 AM
MS. BOCKMON, regarding Representative Wilson's previous question
as to travel expenses for family members of the governor or
lieutenant governor, noted that an opinion was prepared in 2004
or 2005 that suggested that it was inappropriate for the person
involved to be traveling on the state's aircraft at the state's
expense for other than state business. She said the
consideration is of benefits, not just cost.
9:22:43 AM
CHAIR LYNN announced that HB 14 would be held over.
9:23:40 AM
