ACTION NARRATIVE
9:04:22 AM
CHAIR BILL WIELECHOWSKI called the Senate State Affairs Standing
Committee meeting to order at 9:04 a.m. Present at the call to
order were Senators Giessel, Meyer, and Chair Wilechowski.
SB 121-TEACHERS & PUB EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT PLANS
9:05:11 AM
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI announced that the first order of business to
come before the committee was SB 121. It is the sixth hearing on
the bill. At the last meeting the committee adopted two
amendments, the most significant of which would help ensure that
the health care costs of the new defined benefits tier never
exceed those of the existing contributions program. He opined
that the committee has finally achieved the sponsor's goal of
crafting a retirement system that will save the state and
municipalities money, while providing teachers, police officers,
fire fighters, and other public employees with retirement
benefits they can count on.
SENATOR DENNIS EGAN thanked the committee for its work on SB
121. There have been six hearings of the bill in three cities.
He commented that public servants around the state would like a
choice to earn a pension. Experts talk about the benefits of
both defined contribution (DC) and defined benefit (DB) systems.
He stressed that the bill had changed a lot and now saves the
state, at the onset, $49 million in the first five years, is
cost neutral long-term, shares the risk between employer and
employees, and adds nothing to the unfunded liabilities from the
past.
SENATOR EGAN related that SB 121 lets new hires who serve Alaska
and Alaska's cities, who teach kids and respond in times of
need, choose between a portable account to save for retirement
or a monthly pension check. Personal accounts are great for
recruiting researchers, military spouses, or corporate retirees
to state and local government, and pensions are great for
keeping those who spend their lives teaching children,
patrolling prisons, and managing fisheries.
To make the new system cost neutral, employees will share the
risk of health cost rising in the future. It's a risk worth
taking and is fair to Alaskans.
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI noted that he had asked the Department of
Administration to prepare a fiscal note, which had not been
done. He estimated that the bill would save the state $49
million over the next five year. Long-term savings would be even
greater. He inquired if that was Senator Egan's understanding,
also.
SENATOR EGAN said it was.
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI stated that the goal of the new version of
the bill is to be revenue neutral or to save money. He thanked
Senator Egan for his hard work. He noted that the bill would
receive a rigorous review in Senate Finance.
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI asked for a motion to move SB 121, version R,
as amended, from committee with individual recommendations and
two attached fiscal notes: one for $769,000 in FY 13 to help the
Department of Administration get the new system up and running,
and one from the Department of Revenue for $593,000 in FY13 to
cover additional retirement board management fees. He noted an
additional fiscal note from the Department of Administration
would be forthcoming. The bill has an additional referral to the
Senate Finance Committee.
9:09:14 AM
SENATOR MEYER said he would make the motion, but first would
like to ask a question of the Department of Revenue (DOR). He
inquired about the revenue neutrality of the bill and asked if
DOR agreed with the sponsor's statement.
MIKE BARNHILL, Deputy Commissioner, Department of Administration
(DOA), testified in opposition to SB 121. He stated that the
department's goal is to make the bill cost neutral to employers
in terms of normal cost. He maintained that no defined benefit
bill can guarantee cost neutrality for past service cost. For
that reason, DOA continues to oppose SB 121. He recalled the
history of the legislation, beginning with how the first version
of the bill contained $124 million in unfunded liability. Next,
an incorrect fiscal note was drafted. Then, health care costs
increased. He said in a defined benefit plan the state ends up
owning the expense because costs increase more than what was
projected. He reiterated the many problems with a defined
benefit plan and argued against extending the bill for decades.
SENATOR MEYER thanked Mr. Barnhill for taking a position.
9:14:14 AM
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI pointed out that fiscal notes are done to try
to predict the cost of legislation. He continued to say that DOR
fired an actuary who had had a year to work on the fiscal note.
The latest fiscal note is a best estimate based on information
learned from past actuarial mistakes, which assumed that health
care costs would increase by only 3 percent per year when they
actually increased by 10 percent. He pointed out that the
current assumption is that health care costs will increase by 10
percent for the next 30 years. He disagreed with that predicted
10 percent increase because it would mean that in 30 years the
state would be paying $150,000 per employee for health care
benefits. He called it a worst-case scenario. Even so, the
assumptions that DOR experts arrived at are being used in SB
121. The sponsor has put in a provision that says the cost of
the defined benefit program cannot exceed 95 percent of the cost
of the current program. He maintained that the system would save
the state hundreds of millions of dollars. He noted that he
requested a new fiscal note that has not been forthcoming from
the administration. He expressed frustration at not having the
new fiscal note.
9:17:06 AM
MR. BARNHILL disagreed with Chair Wielechowski's assumptions.
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI maintained that they were not "his"
assumptions, but rather DOR's assumptions.
MR. BARNHILL debated Chair Wielechowski's arguments. He
maintained that the actuaries had only a week to work on the
current version of the bill. He described a cascading series of
"passing along the buck" if the assumptions turn out to be
incorrect. He addressed the 10 percent cost growth assumption,
saying it is instead 9 percent. He said the Alaska Retirement
Management (ARM) Board's health care cost growth assumptions
trend down over time. He spoke of the actuarial mistakes related
to the DB plan and the resulting solution to have more actuarial
oversight. He maintained that a week is not enough time for a
full actuarial review.
9:20:32 AM
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI countered that DOR had over a year to have
the legislation fully vetted by actuaries.
JESSE KIEHL, staff, Senator Dennis Egan, provided information
regarding SB 121 on behalf of the sponsor. He clarified that the
new version of the bill guarantees that the new tier would not
exceed the normal cost of the current DC system. He noted that
when a retiree under the new DB tier retires, the amount they
pay for their health insurance is not fixed. The percentage of
the premium is fixed once a person retires. The statutory
requirement that there is an actuarial analysis of the
retirement system, long precedes the 2005 enactment of the DC
system. All of SB 141 safeguards for a DB system remain in place
in SB 121. There will be a second actuary to check the first
actuary, an ARM Board review, and a requirement that employers
not pay less than the normal cost. It is the prefunding costs of
the DB system that won't exceed the cost of the DC system.
MR. KIEHL took issue with the statement that costs are shifted
to future generations of retirees. He emphasized that the health
care cost adjustment in the bill is a pooling of risk and moving
that risk to employees. He concluded that the risk could become
burdensome for employees, but it is a risk that Alaska's public
servants are willing to take for a chance to choose a DB system.
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI asked how the fiscal note process has worked
and what assumptions were used.
MR. KIEHL reported that the timeframes on the actuarial analyses
have varied with different versions of the bill. He believed
that the administration would have a fiscal note in time for the
bill to be heard in the Senate Finance Committee. He appreciated
the administration's cooperation in making the actuary available
to the sponsor.
9:27:48 AM
SENATOR MEYER concluded that allowing state employees to have a
choice of retirement systems is the best policy for the state.
However, he did not know if the state could afford it. He spoke
of military personnel who want a defined contribution and others
who would prefer a defined benefit program. He said that most
states have a hybrid system.
SENATOR MEYER moved to report SB 121, version R, from committee
with individual recommendations and the accompanying fiscal
notes.
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI added, SB 121, version R, as amended, with
two attached fiscal notes and a forthcoming DOA fiscal note. He
announced that without objection, CSSB 121(STA) moved from the
Senate State Affairs Standing Committee.
SB 179-MISSING VULNERABLE ADULT RESPONSE PLAN
9:30:30 AM
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI announced the consideration of SB 179, which
would create a new statewide alert system to help find
vulnerable missing adults. Last week the committee heard
testimony from the Alaska State Troopers, Alaska Association of
Retired People, Alaska Commission on Aging, the Department of
Military and Veteran's Affairs, Division of Homeland Security
and Emergency Management, and several Alzheimer's Associations,
among others. No negative testimony was received. The bill has
three zero fiscal notes: two from the Department of Public
Safety and one from the Department of Military and Veteran's
Affairs.
SENATOR BETTYE DAVIS, sponsor, thanked the committee for hearing
the bill in a timely manner. She said SB 179 would be quite
helpful to Alaskan citizens.
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI requested a motion to move the bill from
committee.
SENATOR MEYER moved to report SB 179 out of committee with
individual recommendations and the attached fiscal notes.
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI announced that without objection, SB 179
moved from the Senate State Affairs Standing Committee.
At ease from 9:31 a.m. to 9:33 a.m.
SB 129-CHILD CARE CTRS: STATE EMPLOYEES & OTHERS
9:33:11 AM
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI announced the consideration of SB 129. It
would allow child care centers to be located in office buildings
owned or leased by the State of Alaska.
GENEVIEVE WOJTUSIK, staff, Senator Lesil McGuire, offered to
answer questions regarding SB 129, on behalf of the sponsor.
VERN JONES, Chief Procurement Officer, Division of General
Services, Department of Administration, answered questions
related to SB 129.
SENATOR MEYER said he supports the bill. He inquired about the
cost of the day care program to the state. He suggested that the
property could be leased and revenue brought in. He asked if the
legislation was fair to small business day care centers.
9:35:33 AM
MR. JONES said he thought it was not accurate to say there was
no cost for the state to implement child care in its facilities
or in leased facilities. It is more accurate to say it is not
possible to choose a number; therefore, the fiscal note is
indeterminate. He said there is a requirement in the bill to
include new centers if a new facility is built, that houses more
than 250 employees. He estimated the cost if day care centers
were added to the last three buildings the state acquired. For
the Atwood Building, the cost would have been a little over $2
million. It is assumed rent would be charged to the day care
provider, so there would be no operational loss of funds.
MR. JONES addressed Senator Meyer's question about "opportunity
costs". The state typically operates a state facility and
charges a tenant operating costs at less than market rates. He
referred to the Atwood Building as an example where the
operating costs are about half the market rate. Also difficult
to factor in is the fact that an agency could be displaced by
the day care center and would have to pay the open market rate.
It is difficult to predict many costs.
SENATOR MEYER noted that day care centers can be justified as an
employee benefit. He questioned if providing a day care would
displace agencies. He wondered who would pay custodial and
utility costs of future centers.
MR. JONES explained that a different agency deals with those
costs. He said the Division of General Services would likely try
to recoup operating costs. He addressed Senator Meyer's question
about competition with the private sector. He did not see undue
favoritism to a day care provider. There are strict rules
regarding charge-back rates which could be cheaper than market
rates. The division typically does not keep track of how many
people inhabit a facility. However, the division is undergoing
an efficiency study and has learned that only two buildings have
over 250 people; the State Office Building and the Atwood
Building. Also, four leased facilities currently have over 250
in them.
9:43:44 AM
SENATOR GIESSEL asked for clarification about the amount charged
for operating costs - "about half the fair market value."
MR. JONES replied that state agencies are charged about half of
market value for leases because of strict federal rules for
operating costs and depreciation. The Atwood and SOB are charged
roughly half of what could be gotten on the open market.
SENATOR GIESSEL pointed out that a private company would be
leasing the space for a child care center. She said she wondered
if they would qualify for the same lease price break the state
receives.
MR. JONES said the state was allowed to charge rent based on
federal guidelines, but could also charge the market rate to a
non-state entity. He said he would have to check on that. The
fiscal note does not make any assumptions about the rate.
SENATOR GIESSEL spoke of a private company running a restaurant
in the Atwood Building. She asked what rate they are being
charged.
MR. JONES said he thought they were being charged an equivalent
rate, but he would have to check on it. Future day care centers
would not be state-run businesses; an RFP would be issued for
open market competition.
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI said SB 129 would be held over.
^OVERVIEW: ALASKA NON-PROFIT ECONOMY
9:47:36 AM
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI announced the Foraker Group presentation on
Alaska's nonprofit economy. Alaska relies on nonprofit groups to
provide a wide range of public services. As economic conditions
in Alaska have tightened and the legislature has sought to
constrain state spending, many of these organizations are
struggling to meet public needs and accomplish their missions.
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI introduced Dennis McMillian, president and
CEO of the Foraker Group. He said that Mr. McMillian has devoted
his professional career to helping nonprofit organizations
better meet the needs of their communities. Mr. McMillian came
to Alaska in 1992 to lead the United Way of Anchorage, and since
then, he has helped build the state's philanthropic
infrastructure through his work with United Ways across the
state, and through his support in developing the Alaska
Community Foundation. He is a strong advocate for Alaska's
nonprofit sector. In 2001, Mr. McMillian led the effort to start
the Foraker Group with the mission of building sustainability
and organizational capacity in Alaska's nonprofits.
At ease from 9:49:01 a.m. to 9:49:53 a.m.
9:49:53 AM
KATHIE WASSERMAN, Executive Director, Alaska Municipal League
(AML), Board Member, Foraker Group, contributed to the
discussion of Alaska Nonprofit Economy. She spoke of the
benefits to AML and to Alaska from the Foraker Group. The
Foraker Group has been instrumental in assisting AML's board
operate more effectively. Non-profits that do a good job have
become much stronger and more effective due to the efforts of
the Foraker Group.
9:52:09 AM
DENNIS MCMILLIAN, President & CEO, Foraker Group, presented an
overview entitled "Alaska Non-Profit Economy." He predicted that
non-profit requests would escalate in the future. The Foraker
Group provides training and research for non-profits in Alaska.
They do research every three years to establish base-line data.
MR. MCMILLIAN reported on the total number of Alaska nonprofits
in 2010 in Alaska. He showed a graph made by Institute of Social
and Economic Research (ISER) showing the number of registered
and non-registered nonprofits. There were 4,727 registered
nonprofits and 2,300 other nonprofits. He commented on which
groups do not show up under the 4,727 that are registered. The
best guess is that there are 7,000 nonprofits operating in
Alaska currently.
MR. MCMILLIAN showed the expenditures of nonprofits operating in
Alaska. It is a $4.5 billion industry, three-quarters of which
are 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofits.
9:57:39 AM
MR. MCMILLIAN reported on the composition of Alaska public
charities. Nine percent of the organizations, the health
subsector, represents 61 percent of employment and 60 percent of
expenditures. He showed how the largest ten public charities
rank by expenditures. He noted that all ten were related to
health care and all but three were Native entities. He added
that the data was from 2007 and not particularly good; it was
ISER's best guess.
He detailed the public charity composition of revenues in Alaska
as compared to those in the entire United States. U.S.
Government grants make up 43 percent of revenues in Alaska, as
compared to only 9 percent nationally. The charitable
contributions/other category in Alaska is 18 percent versus 23
percent nationally.
He noted a trend in Alaska since 2003 - government grants have
dropped from 53 percent of total revenues to 43 percent. Alaska
is disproportionally supported by foundations and corporations.
The state is overly dependent on one industry for charitable
contributions. The Click, Pick, Give program has helped to
increase individual giving.
10:02:39 AM
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI noted tax breaks in Alaska for companies that
contribute to education. He asked how that type of donation is
counted.
MR. MCMILLIAN said that was IRS data.
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI wondered if that type of donation increased
the number for government spending.
MR. MCMILLAN guessed that it did.
MR. MCMILLIAN turned to the trends in Alaska that would be
affecting charitable funding in the future. A funding crisis is
inevitable due to the drop in contributions from federal
earmarks and from organizations turning to the state for
funding. He emphasized that the nonprofits have been warned that
this was coming.
He addressed the "crash of the herd" crisis, which he described
as an over population issue - one nonprofit for 28 people. He
spoke of baby boomer population trends leading to not enough
people to serve on, and staff, non-profits in order to maintain
7,000 nonprofits.
MR. MCMILLIAN discussed new nonprofit structures such as
networked institutions with new ways of partnering and merging.
He noted the Foraker Group was here to serve Alaska.
10:09:36 AM
SENATOR MEYER agreed that in tough times, companies and
nonprofits will tend to merge. He asked how religious groups
qualify as nonprofits.
MR. MCMILLIAN said they are all nonprofits and are a part of the
7,000.
SENATOR MEYER said that was good because they work together to
provide food banks and soup kitchens.
MR. MCMILLIAN noted that in the nonprofit sector, competition
does not work.
SENATOR MEYER suggested that when nonprofits request funding
from the state, they should also have other matching funds.
MR. MCMILLIAN talked about capital campaigns. He opined that the
state will have to have a different strategy for funding
nonprofits. He predicted that nonprofits will need 67 percent
from one donor when they seek funding from the state.
10:14:03 AM
SENATOR MEYER appreciated the work Foraker does. He said that
nonprofits often require business-related assistance.
CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI asked for specific steps the legislature
could take to strengthen nonprofits and ensure their
sustainability in Alaska.
MR. MCMILLAN referred to a handout called "Nonprofit Sustaining
Guidelines." He suggested four things to look for in a nonprofit
to determine how sustainable it will be: having focus or clear
understanding by the nonprofit of itself and its goals - being
strategic and thinking ahead; having the right people involved -
working together in partnership; being fluent in partnerships
and in collaborations; generating unrestricted cash and making a
profit.
10:19:08 AM
There being no further business to come before the committee,
Chair Wielechowski adjourned the Senate State Affairs Standing
Committee at 10:19 a.m.
