SB 46-BRAIN INJURY AWARENESS MONTH 3:32:19 PM CHAIR KAWASAKI announced the consideration of SENATE BILL NO. 46 "An Act establishing the month of March as Brain Injury Awareness Month." He asked the sponsor to provide a summary of the bill. 3:32:35 PM SENATOR LÖKI GALE TOBIN, District I, Alaska State Legislature, Juneau, Alaska, sponsor of SB 46, deferred to her staff, Mackenzie Pope, to summarize the bill and answer questions. 3:32:46 PM MACKENZIE POPE, Staff, Senator Löki Gale Tobin, Alaska State Legislature, Juneau, Alaska, explained that SB 46 designates the month of March as Brain Injury Awareness Month in Alaska. The designation will attract public attention to the prevalence of brain injuries and highlight methods of prevention. CHAIR KAWASAKI asked the committee for queries about SB 46; finding none he moved to public testimony. 3:33:15 PM CHAIR KAWASAKI opened public testimony on SB 46. After ascertaining that no one in the room or online wished to testify, he closed public testimony. He asked Senator Merrick to read the fiscal note into the record. 3:33:48 PM SENATOR MERRICK read the fiscal note analysis. This bill establishes March as Brain Injury Awareness Month. The administration does not anticipate any programmatic effects to departments as a result of this legislation; therefore, a zero fiscal note for all agencies is submitted. CHAIR KAWASAKI reminded the members that the committee heard SB 46 on March 14, 2023, with participating invited testimony. Finding no questions or comments, he solicited a motion. 3:34:40 PM SENATOR MERRICK moved to report SB 46, work order 33-LS0325\A, from committee with individual recommendations and attached fiscal note. CHAIR KAWASAKI found no objection and SB 46 was reported from the Senate State Affairs Standing Committee.
