The Governor's transmittal letter dated July 18 follows: "Dear Speaker Edgmon: Under the authority of Article III, Section 18, of the Alaska Constitution, I am transmitting an appropriation bill that authorizes capital appropriations, operating appropriations for certain state programs, repeals appropriations and makes appropriations to capitalize funds for consideration by the Thirty-First Alaska State Legislature in the Second Special Session. I recognize the importance of many items that were left unfunded or improperly funded during the Regular and First Special Session. This budget includes funding for the comprehensive criminal justice reform package, state match to leverage over $915 million in federal transportation funds, and various projects and programs that will provide services to Alaskans. Many Alaskans rely on the funds outlined in this budget to provide for their families, put a roof over their head, and keep them safe. I appreciate the Legislature's focus and attention on this legislation. My Administration stands ready to provide additional information to help you during your swift, deliberative process. Sincerely, /s/ Michael J. Dunleavy Governor"
