  CHAIRMAN GREEN  announced SJR 22 was before the committee for its

  CHRIS NELSON , staff to Senator Robin Taylor, explained the                  
 Department of Defense is currently conducting what is now known as            
 the Quadrennial Defense Review, which addresses all aspects of                
 military policy, and it is looking at opportunities for expansion             
 as well as some cuts that might be made.  The resolution directs              
 the attention of the Department of Defense to the opportunities for           
 using Alaska's bases for military training, and the fact that                 
 Alaska's bases are modern, up-to-date, and under-utilized.                    
                                                                               
  CHAIRMAN GREEN  asked for the pleasure of committee on SJR 22.               
                                                                               
  SENATOR WARD  moved SJR 22 be passed out of committee with                   
 individual recommendations.  Hearing no objection, it was so                  
 ordered.
