Does Alaska not have an Open Meetings Act?
This is just ongoing Alaska establishment corruption. The incoming Governor-elect Bill Walker was endorsed by Sarah Palin over the official Republican candidate because of Palin’s visceral hatred of such corruption.
Let’s hope that Walker eliminates some of this REGROWING corruption just as Sarah Palin did when she was Alaska governor and battled against such corruption.
This happens thousands of times a year across the country when teacher and other public employee unions have a contract negotiation. The unions negotiate with the politicians not the people panning the bills.
I’m of two minds on this.
If it was an “information” meeting, as the name of the office suggests, I can understand that the number of attendees was restricted. On the other hand, if a contract is issued, or legislation is enacted, without complete transparency to the public, that would be an outrage.
Thank you.
