ACTION NARRATIVE
8:31:21 AM
CHAIR STOLTZE called the Senate State Affairs Standing Committee
meeting to order at 8:31 a.m. Present at the call to order were
Senators Coghill, McGuire, and Chair Stoltze.
CHAIR STOLTZE turned the gavel over to Vice Chair Coghill.
SCR 6-SEXUAL ASSAULT AWARENESS MONTH: APRIL 2015
8:32:13 AM
VICE CHAIR COGHILL announced the consideration of SCR 6.
8:32:22 AM
SENATOR KEVIN MEYER, Alaska State Legislature, sponsor of SCR 6,
provided an overview of the resolution. He said the resolution
proclaims April 2015 as Sexual Assault Awareness Month. It is
part of an annual campaign to raise public awareness about
sexual assault and educate communities and individuals on how to
prevent sexual violence across the nation. Sexual violence is a
very serious public health problem. It affects millions of men
and women. The Centers for Disease Control reports that in the
United States, one in five women and one in seventy-one men have
experienced violent sexual assault in their lifetime. In Alaska,
these rates are much higher - almost two-and-a-half times the
national average. Statistics underestimate the problem because
many victims do not tell the police, family, or friends about
the violence.
He said that sexual violence impacts health in many ways and can
lead to long-term mental and physical health problems. By
bringing awareness to the crime of sexual assault and
recognizing the enormity of the problem, we can begin to address
it and heal from it and, hopefully, prevent it. SCR 6 is a small
but significant step in educating the public and our communities
on lifting the veil of secrecy that so often hides these
horrific crimes.
8:33:04 AM
SENATOR WIELECHOWSKI joined the committee meeting.
VICE CHAIR COGHILL asked if the committee had any questions.
SENATOR MCGUIRE spoke in support of the resolution and thanked
Senator Meyer for bringing it forward. She asked that testifiers
provide comments on planned actions to combat sexual violence.
She pointed out Alaska's sexual assault statistics - number one
in the nation in every category.
VICE CHAIR COGHILL commented that SCR 6 is a conversation
starter.
8:36:26 AM
SUZI PEARSON, Executive Director, Abused Women's Aid in Crisis
(AWAIC), thanked the committee for SCR 6 and for acknowledging
the significant prevention work that domestic violence and
sexual assault agencies throughout Alaska achieve in order to
stop the cycle of violence. She explained a program in Anchorage
called "Green Dot," a model of primary prevention formed by the
Anchorage Alliance on Violence Prevention. It is a very
collaborative, successful method of decreasing sexual violence.
8:38:46 AM
VICE CHAIR COGHILL thanked Ms. Pearson.
SENATOR MCGUIRE asked if Ms. Pearson was aware of Erin's Law.
MS. PEARSON answered yes.
SENATOR MCGUIRE asked if Ms. Pearson is supportive of providing
sexual assault awareness for young people in schools and whether
it could relate to Green Dot.
MS. PEARSON replied that domestic violence is cyclical in nature
and generational. The only way to stop it is through teaching
the current generation about healthy relationships and the best
ways to protect themselves. She stressed the importance of
focusing on youth, educating them, and providing them with great
tools. She said Green Dot is based on peer relationships with
leaders in schools who were trained and then trained their
peers. It creates an environment that said violence is not ok,
as well as allows students to step in when they see
inappropriate behavior. She provided an example.
VICE CHAIR COGHILL noted issues with having the programs in
schools. He thanked Ms. Pearson for her presentation.
8:42:07 AM
BETH BOGARDE, Executive Director, Women in Safe Homes (WISH),
testified in support of SCR 6. She said everyone knows someone
who has been sexually assaulted. The traumatic effects of sexual
assault are life long, not only for the person who has suffered
the abuse, but also for the children, family members, and future
relationships. She listed some of the programs the resolution
would support, such as COMPASS for males. She described the
partnerships WISH has, how WISH uses Native culture in its
programs, and positive outcomes.
8:46:22 AM
MS. BOGARDE addressed the high number of assaults upon persons
with disabilities. She said SCR 6 is one more call to action to
reduce assaults on all populations.
SENATOR COGHILL thanked Ms. Bogarde.
8:48:24 AM
KEITH MALLARD, Chief of Police, University of Alaska - Fairbanks
Police Department, expressed his support for SCR 6. He spoke of
his history working in public service and his passion for
protecting others. He shared his personal history of abuse and
lack of intervention by those who were aware of it. He pointed
out that those issues remain in society today, but that he has
hope because of efforts to educate bystanders, such as with
programs like Green Dot. He noted that Green Dot is coming to
the Fairbanks campus. He stressed that everyone can agree that
interpersonal violence is unacceptable, and everyone must do
their part to combat it.
8:52:52 AM
SENATOR MCGUIRE thanked Chief Mallard for his testimony and for
sharing his personal experience. She stressed the importance of
strong male figures and the need for a cultural change. She
asked for other ideas to encourage citizens to become more
involved in prevention.
8:55:12 AM
CHIEF MALLARD answered that the power of individual choice is
very important toward addressing this issue. Programs like Green
Dot provides the skills to accomplish that.
SENATOR HUGGINS joined the committee meeting.
VICE CHAIR COGHILL thanked Chief Mallard for his testimony.
8:59:22 AM
ROWENA PALOMAR, Executive Director, Advocates for Victims of
Violence, testified in support of SCR 6. She provided an
overview of sexual assault in Valdez, which holds the record for
the most sexual assaults by one man in Alaska. She said her job
is to let victims know that there is help available for them.
Valdez now has a Sexual Assault Response Team (SART).
VICE CHAIR COGHILL thanked Ms. Palomar.
9:03:07 AM
SARALYN TABACHNIK, Executive Director, AWARE, Inc., testified in
support of SCR 6, noting it was very comprehensive. She voiced
appreciation for the recognition for individual community,
agency, and statewide prevention efforts. She spoke about one of
those efforts, "Girls on the Run." It is an international
program that began in 1996 in North Carolina and has grown to
over 1 million girls. It envisions a world where every girl
knows and activates her limitless potential and is free to
boldly pursue her dream. In Juneau, a pilot program of Girls on
the Run was started in 2008. She described the program's
curriculum, results, and successes throughout the state.
9:08:02 AM
MS. TABACHNIK concluded with the resolution's comprehensive
approach to preventing sexual abuse. She voiced appreciation for
the long-term investment.
SENATOR COGHILL thanked Ms. Tabachnik.
SENATOR MCGUIRE thanked Ms. Tabachnik. She asked what could be
done to engage young men more.
9:10:52 AM
MS. TABACHNIK pointed out a program called "Boys Run" that
incorporates Native values. She hoped to partner with other
agencies on it.
9:13:11 AM
LAUREE MORTON, Executive Director, State Council on Domestic
Violence and Sexual Assault, testified in support of SCR 6. She
related that many of the programs the committee heard today
involve increasing protective factors and building resiliency
among young people because they are then less likely to engage
in violent behaviors in sexual assault, and in domestic
violence. She noted two additional programs, "Coaching Boys into
Men," working with male athletes, and "Talk Now, Talk Often," a
program for parents.
She voiced appreciation for the committee's efforts toward
ending domestic violence and sexual assault.
VICE CHAIR COGHILL thanked Ms. Morton. He appreciated learning
more about available programs.
SENATOR STOLTZE said the resolution has a zero fiscal note.
9:16:39 AM
SENATOR STOLTZE moved to report SCR 6 from committee with
individual recommendations and attached zero fiscal note. There
being no objection, the motion carried.
VICE CHAIR COGHILL announced SCR 6 moved out of committee.
9:17:06 AM
At ease.
SB 62-REGULATION OF MARIJUANA BUSINESSES; BOARD
9:18:26 AM
CHAIR STOLTZE called the committee back to order. He announced
that the next order of business would be SB 62.
9:19:17 AM
FRANCI HAVEMEISTER, Director, Division of Agriculture,
Department of Natural Resources, provided the division's
perspective on SB 62. She related that the division has had
discussions with the Department of Law and believes that the
potential interaction between the marijuana industry and the
division may involve the Agriculture Revolving Loan Fund. It may
also include agriculture land sales in that the division
requires a farm conservation plan be submitted to the division.
There may also be interaction between the plant material center
staff with technical assistance on cultivation production and
the Alaska Grown Marketing Program.
CHAIR STOLTZE asked if marijuana meets labeling requirements as
"Alaska Grown"
MS. HAVEMEISTER said there are ongoing discussions with the
Department of Law regarding that issue.
CHAIR STOLTZE asked what the inhibitors might be.
9:21:51 AM
MS. HAVEMEISTER answered that she is not aware of anything that
would prohibit it except for the implication of federal money
being used for the marketing program. She noted that "Colorado
Proud" has a disclaimer stating that if the crop is federally
illegal, the seller is not able to participate in the program.
CHAIR STOLTZE asked if the division has discussed the
segregation of state versus federal funds in the marketing
program.
MS. HAVEMEISTER said no.
CHAIR STOLTZE noted that the plant materials center engages in
seed certification and disease control. He asked if marijuana is
an invasive weed.
9:22:51 AM
MS. HAVEMEISTER said she did not believe so.
CHAIR STOLTZE added "not in the purely, technical, agricultural
sense."
MS. HAVEMEISTER answered correct.
CHAIR STOLTZE noted the success of Greenhouse Loans. He
requested to know the barriers and opportunities for farmers'
participation in the division's programs.
9:23:43 AM
MS. HAVEMEISTER answered that the division is having that
discussion with the Department of Law. No determination has been
made.
CHAIR STOLTZE asked if there have been policy discussions.
MS. HAVEMEISTER said the board has had some discussion on a
limited basis.
CHAIR STOLTZE asked which board.
MS. HAVEMEISTER said the Board of Agriculture, which includes
the Attorney General.
CHAIR STOLTZE asked who sat in on the meetings.
MS. HAVEMEISTER said Mr. McFarlane.
9:24:56 AM
SENATOR COGHILL noted Colorado's radio-frequency identification
(RFID) technology to track plants and asked if Alaska uses RFID
to track agriculture.
MS. HAVEMEISTER answered not that she is aware of.
SENATOR COGHILL explained that the potency and value of plants
is determined by a selection of individual plants in a growing
area, such as a greenhouse. He asked if that could be done in
Alaska.
MS. HAVEMEISTER answered potentially yes.
9:26:08 AM
CHAIR STOLTZE noted other states that have commercialized
marijuana have heightened security and enacted bonding
requirements. He wondered if fiscal notes would be needed.
MS. HAVEMEISTER said they have discussed the funding of
commercialization and are trying to understand the financial
impacts to the division.
9:27:12 AM
CHAIR STOLTZE noted the U.S. Department of Agriculture's
discussion of the Food Safety and Modernization Act and asked
what challenges the division might have with regulations for
growing marijuana as they relate to that Act.
MS. HAVEMEISTER replied that the Act is going to be challenging
for all agriculture divisions throughout the nation. Currently,
the authority lies within the Department of Commerce, Community
and Economic Development (DCCED). She noted the division is in
conversation with DCCED to work out a Memorandum of
Understanding (MO) that would put the on-farm inspections
through the division. She reported that, at this time, the final
rules will be published in September or October of 2015. At that
time the division will know the true implications and effects it
will have on Alaska growers.
SENATOR HUGGINS asked about the shipping of seeds to Alaska.
9:29:48 AM
MS. HAVEMEISTER understood that shipping marijuana seeds must be
authorized with the Department of Agriculture (DOA) and is not
easily done.
CHAIR STOLTZE pointed out efforts required to control disease in
the agriculture industry. He assumed there would be a fiscal
impact to DNR and suggested that they prepare for that. He
requested fiscal information.
MS. HAVEMEISTER agreed to provide that.
9:32:53 AM
SENATOR HUGGINS asked how growers pollinate marijuana.
MS. HAVEMEISTER said she is not familiar with that, but the
division is looking into it.
SENATOR HUGGINS asked if marijuana is a "volunteer" plant. He
provided a scenario and asked whether the plant will lose its
potency the second year.
9:34:38 AM
MS. HAVEMEISTER said she did not know. She thought marijuana
production would take place in a greenhouse.
SENATOR HUGGINS was concerned about re-growth.
CHAIR STOLTZE thanked Ms. Havemeister.
9:37:09 AM
RICHARD SVOBODNY, Deputy Attorney General, Criminal Division,
Department of Law, provided information on SB 62. He considered
SB 62 a regulatory bill.
CHAIR STOLTZE pointed out public notice issues and the mandate
to regulate marijuana like alcohol.
9:40:05 AM
MR. SVOBODNY addressed regulating marijuana like alcohol. He
said it is easier to regulate alcohol due to the larger
infrastructure in place. The marijuana industry is just
beginning and much is unknown. For example, the bill provides
for three new types of licenses.
CHAIR STOLTZE requested information about the notice
requirement, pointing out the public safety aspect. Both sides
say that they must have notice or privacy, both reflecting
criminal concerns.
9:41:37 AM
MR. SVOBONDY opined that Ravin vs. State was not based on the
constitutional right to possess or use marijuana. It was based
upon the right of privacy and there was a heightened right of
privacy in one's home. It only dealt with personal use, not
commercial use.
CHAIR STOLTZE said if that includes boutique production in one's
home.
MR. SVOBODNY answered that example is similar to running a
business out of your home, such as Amway. There is a greater
interest in allowing legislation to control what happens in your
home when it is commercial, as opposed to personal. He gave
several examples.
9:44:30 AM
CHAIR STOLTZE asked whether there are commercial alcohol
businesses that are allowed to conduct their business in
anonymity and have a right of privacy.
MR. SVOBODNY answered no. A person can make beer or wine in
one's home, but that is not a commercial operation and does not
require a license like home-grown marijuana would.
9:45:38 AM
SENATOR MCGUIRE opined that the struggle with the Ravin ruling
is that marijuana was illegal at the time. She predicted that
legalization and the right to privacy would intersect in the
future.
MR. SVOBODNY agreed.
SENATOR MCGUIRE asked about pending litigation from states
surrounding Colorado. They are asserting that the marijuana
industry in Colorado has had disproportionate negative impacts
on them. She asked if Alaska might be subjected to that type of
litigation from Washington or Oregon.
MR. SVOBODNY said it was an interesting case and he did not
think it would happen to Alaska because both Washington and
Oregon have marijuana initiatives.
9:49:00 AM
SENATOR MCGUIRE asked if that case might ultimately lead to a
Supreme Court decision about the federalization of marijuana.
MR. SVOBODNY said he had no idea.
SENATOR HUGGINS asked about tribal rights in either Colorado or
Washington.
MR. SVOBODNY thought Senator Huggins might be referring to a
memorandum from the Justice Department in the last six months
that has set out a framework for Indian reservations to make a
decision about whether or not to decriminalize marijuana. The
only area in Alaska that would meet that criteria is Metlakatla.
9:52:14 AM
SENATOR COGHILL commented that seeds from out of state, would be
an interstate commerce criminal issue on the federal level. He
asked how the state would handle it.
MR. SVOBODNY asked if he was asking if under the initiative it
would be a crime to possess seeds in territorial waters of
Alaska.
SENATOR COGHILL thought Alaska might have to have a license to
accept five pounds of seeds.
MR. SVOBODNY explained that from the standpoint of the
initiative, Alaska would have to have a license to import seeds.
He did not know what the penalties under state law would be.
Currently, it is a violation of federal law. The initiative does
not change federal law. The federal government could make a
determination to go forward in any criminal case.
He questioned where the boundaries of the administrative state
are under SB 62 and how much authority can be given to an
administrative agency. He did not think an administrative agency
should be creating crimes, but that it is the legislature's job
to do so. He stated that half of the states have required the
crimes to be spelled out in statute; others have said it is
sufficient to give an administrative agency that authority, but
the legislature must set standards for their use in creating
administrative regulations. He stressed the importance of that.
9:57:36 AM
CHAIR STOLTZE requested Mr. Svobodny work with Commissioner
Folger and Commissioner Richards on the administration's ideas
on public safety priorities and public notice and zoning issues.
He noted the sponsor's mandate on privacy.
9:59:48 AM
MR. SVOBODNY agreed to do so by Monday. He pointed out that the
need to be licensed means a lessened amount of privacy. He noted
that OSHA and other regulatory entities will interact with the
new businesses.
10:01:06 AM
SENATOR WIELECHOWSKI requested information from prosecutors in
Anchorage about the uptick in violence. He wondered if it is
drug related and a reaction to the proposed legislation.
MR. SVOBODNY agreed to find out.
[SB 62 was held in committee.]
10:02:05 AM
At ease.
SB 42-PERSONAL USE FISHING PRIORITY
10:02:46 AM
VICE CHAIR COGHILL brought the meeting back to order.
SENATOR STOLTZE, as sponsor of SB 42, provided an overview of
the bill. He said the bill directs the Board of Fisheries to
place restrictions on sport and commercial fisheries before
putting restrictions on personal use fisheries when the harvest
of a stock or species is limited to achieve an escapement goal.
He noted the benefit of this bill in the Cook Inlet area where
the greatest tension exists. He noted the importance of food
security for Alaska residents.
10:06:47 AM
SENATOR STOLTZE continued to explain that SB 42 is a simple
bill. He named the Alaskans that would benefit from the bill. He
noted his family participates in fishing. He understood that the
issue is political.
10:09:52 AM
SENATOR MCGUIRE thanked Senator Stoltze for bringing the bill
forward and echoed his comments. She said her constituents want
the opportunity to pass on the tradition of fishing. She said
she plans to co-sponsor the bill. She noted the constitutional
mandate that the resources of the state should be shared among
the people for maximum benefit. She compared it to hunting
rights.
10:12:36 AM
SENATOR STOLTZE stated that subsistence and personal use should
be a priority because they are for Alaska residents.
SENATOR HUGGINS commented that in the Wasilla area, the public
cannot catch fish until August. Fishing is a "fighting" issue.
He voiced appreciation for the bill. He asked who was opposed to
the bill.
10:16:35 AM
SENATOR STOLTZE answered that he would rather not battle with
those who are against the bill. He explained the litigation
history of fishing issues. He maintained that the bill is a
positive, productive solution.
10:19:14 AM
SAM COTTON, Commissioner, Department of Fish and Game, presented
information on SB 42. He shared that historically the department
has taken a neutral stance on this legislation. He said the
legislature has the right to make allocative decisions in
statute and the Board of Fisheries would be required to follow
them. He said he is happy to work with the sponsor on issues
that may come up as the bill progresses.
Commissioner Cotton pointed out that there are 80 different
personal-use fisheries in Alaska and it is possible that some
may have unique circumstances that may need to be considered in
order to avoid unintended consequences.
SENAOTR STOLTZE noted a sports analogy.
COMMISSIONER COTTON described some of the areas of controversy.
He spoke in favor of the resident preference in the bill.
SENATOR STOLTZE asked if crab is considered a fish stock.
COMMISSIONER COTTON answered yes.
10:22:55 AM
VIRGIL UMPHENOUR, Chair, Fairbanks Fish and Game Advisory
Committee, testified in support of SB 42. He said he was on the
Board of Fisheries for eight years. He recalled one of the first
meetings he attended was about Cook Inlet. He cited problems
with the commercial fisheries and his goal to get a meaningful
dip net fishery for the Kenai Peninsula. He said the bill is
long overdue.
10:25:08 AM
ROD ARNO, Executive Director, Alaska Outdoor Council, testified
in support of SB 42. He related that at the annual meeting in
Juneau there were 21 delegates who unanimously endorsed SB 42.
He voiced appreciation for the efforts of the sponsor. He said
it is a good step in times of shortages.
10:26:46 AM
WES HUMBYRD, representing himself, testified in opposition to SB
42. He shared that he has been a commercial fisherman in Cook
Inlet since 1966. He disagreed with some of the previous
comments. He said he does not know of any gillnetter in Cook
Inlet that wants to take away anyone's personal use fishery.
They want to see the illegal aspects of it taken away.
10:30:04 AM
VICE CHAIR COGHILL thanked all the testifiers. He returned the
gavel to Chair Stoltze.
CHAIR STOLTZE noted that public testimony for SB 42 would remain
open.
10:31:25 AM
There being no further business to come before the committee,
Chair Stoltze adjourned the Senate State Affairs Standing
Committee hearing at 10:31 a.m.
