SJR 10-CONT. AM.: BUDGET RESERVE FUND 9:06:25 AM CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI stated that the next bill before the committee was SJR 10. This constitutional amendment would cap the amount of unrestricted oil revenue that can be spent in a given year at $6 billion, adjusted for inflation, and two-thirds of the surplus would be put into the Constitutional Budget Reserve (CBR). CHAIR WIELECHOWSKI said that the committee heard compelling testimony from two university experts in support of this concept. The first was Dr. Scott Goldsmith of the Institute of Social and Economic Research who has written extensively about state finances and the need to spend wisely. The second was Dr. Steven Haycox, an Alaska historian and author of many books. The bill has a further referral to the Senate Finance Committee. It is one of many ideas on the table for ensuring that our financial house in in order as oil production continues to decline. If passed by the legislature, it would go to the people of Alaska for a vote. The bill has a modest fiscal note of $1,500 to cover the cost of providing information about the amendment on the elections booklet for the 2012 general election. SENATOR GIESSEL stated that a constitutional amendment is a significant action and should address an issue that is durable over time. She recalled testimony that stated that excess funds would only exist for the next two to three years in light of declining oil production. She opined that it was not appropriate to amend the constitution for something that will only be relevant for a few years. She also disapproved of tying the hands of future legislatures. SENATOR WIELECHOWSKI opined that the intent of the bill is to put a framework into the future to provide for savings. SENATOR KOOKESH said that he was inclined to support bills that required a vote of the people; however, he was uncertain about what would happen in the next three years. 9:09:37 AM SENATOR PASKVAN moved [to report the CS for SJR 10, labeled 27- LS1091\D, from committee with individual recommendations and the attached fiscal note.] SENATOR WIELECHOWSKI announced that without objection, CSSJR 10(STA) moved from the Senate State Affairs Standing Committee.
