The many decisions made on this floor will affect so many lives across its wide expanses. We ask for wisdom and guidance in the making of those decisions. We ask for patience and the ability to balance the interests of so many fairly and with respect. Help us to avoid anger. As you have so clearly reminded us, let our love for the people of this land and the beauty you have created for us temper any ill will that might arise. As we contemplate the deeper meaning in why we are here and what we have been called to do, let us pause and give thanks for people like Rie Munoz who with her artistic 2015-04-13 House Journal Page 0872 blessings so well captured the more elegant and sweeter side of Alaska living. May her work and that of other artists remind us that in between the political storms that from time to time may distract us, Alaska, with all her beauty and stunning landscape, is the place we as one people are privileged to call home. May we all have a bit more of Rie Munoz in us as we go about our sometimes less than artistic tasks. May the great North Star with her steady light inspire us and remind us of our creator and this blessed land we call Alaska. Amen.

HB 194 HOUSE BILL NO. 194 by the House Rules Committee by request of the Governor, entitled: "An Act repealing and reenacting the Alaska Securities Act, including provisions relating to exempt securities and transactions; relating to registration of securities, firms, and agents that offer or sell securities and investment advice; relating to administrative, civil, and criminal enforcement provisions, including restitution and civil penalties for violations; allowing certain civil penalties to be used for an investor training fund; establishing increased civil penalties for harming older Alaskans; retaining provisions concerning corporations organized under the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act; amending Rules 4, 5, 54, 65, and 90, Alaska Rules of Civil Procedure; and providing for an effective date." was read the first time and referred to the Labor & Commerce, Judiciary, and Finance Committees. The following fiscal note(s) apply: 2015-04-13 House Journal Page 0877 1. Indeterminate, Dept. of Commerce, Community, & Economic Development The Governor's transmittal letter dated April 11, 2015, follows: "Dear Speaker Chenault: Under the authority of Article III, Section 18, of the Alaska Constitution, I am transmitting a bill relating to the Alaska Securities Act and certain provisions of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) proxy solicitations. The bill would modify AS 45 by adding a new chapter, AS 45.56, relating to the Alaska Securities Act. The proposed updates would modernize and streamline the State's outdated securities laws to recognize industry changes and to support new means of raising capital, while enhancing investor protections and remedies. By adopting relevant provisions of the Uniform Securities Act (2002), this new Alaska Securities Act would incorporate proven successful practices in the industry but maintain Alaska-specific provisions relevant to the unique features of the state. Moreover, the updates would eliminate redundant or outdated references and practices. Currently, AS 45.55 governs securities transactions in the state. Since its adoption in 1961, there have only been two relevant changes to our securities law. In 1999, a portion of the existing law was revised after the passage of the National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996. In 2014, Chapter 46, SLA 2014 eliminated several filing requirements for certain securities exemptions, but otherwise left the majority of the Alaska Securities Act unchanged. It remains outdated. By example, the current version of the Alaska Securities Act limits official notification of certain dates to telegram or telephone, but not electronic means, and continues to list stock exchanges that have merged with other entities or no longer exist. The financial industry has changed dramatically in the last 15 years and an entire overhaul of the Alaska Securities Act is necessary to put the State's laws governing securities transactions in line with other regulatory regimes. Using the Uniform Securities Act as a springboard for changes to the Alaska Securities Act, our State benefits from a time-tested regulatory 2015-04-13 House Journal Page 0878 regime that has been adopted and used in at least 20 other states. By incorporating provisions proven to improve the regulation of the securities industry in other states into our laws, the state and persons doing business here will benefit. Using the Uniform Securities Act for the basic framework also provides familiarity to many industry professionals that are familiar with the Alaska Securities Act. Using the Uniform Securities Act as the starting point, the bill would incorporate several Alaska-specific provisions aimed at protecting and supporting the public and industry. By example, proposed AS 45.56.220 would provide an exemption for small intrastate investment opportunities, commonly referred to as "crowdfunding." This would encourage local capital raising without burdensome administrative oversight and still provide necessary protections to Alaskan investors. Additionally, most notice filings relating to small projects or investments are eliminated, but investor protections are maintained. The bill would update enforcement provisions by increasing penalties for those who violate the Alaska Securities Act, allow restitution to be ordered to compensate victims for their losses, and provide for enhanced civil penalties against violators who harm or injure an older Alaskan. Further, the bill would direct that a small portion of civil penalties may be used to provide investor education to Alaskans. The bill also would modify existing provisions related to the treatment of ANCSA proxy solicitations in the existing chapter, AS 45.55. These limited modifications do not change any substantive law, but instead reorganize the existing laws regulating ANCSA proxy solicitations into their own chapter, as they are best regulated. I urge your prompt and favorable action on this measure. Sincerely, /s/ Bill Walker Governor" 2015-04-13 House Journal Page 0879 HB 195 HOUSE BILL NO. 195 by Representative KAWASAKI, entitled: "An Act requiring a legislator to abstain from voting on questions affecting an enterprise if the legislator or member of the legislator's immediate family has a substantial financial interest in the enterprise, and requiring a legislator to refrain from taking or withholding official action or exerting official influence in certain matters in which the legislator's action or influence could benefit or harm another person; adding a definition of 'financial interest' to the Legislative Ethics Act; making this Act conditionally effective; and providing for an effective date." was read the first time and referred to the State Affairs and Judiciary Committees.
