It's time again to reach out to our legislators to let them know that we Alaskans want them to adopt the targeted Sudan divestment legislation (SB 227/HB 287). Below is a listing of the Senate State Affairs Committee members and their contact information. Please call and email each to let them know that this legislation is not to be taken lightly. That it is too effective, too simple to implement, and too important to be disregarded.
Chair - Sen. Lesil McGuire 465-2995 Senator_Lesil_McGuire@legis.state.ak.us
Vice-Chair - Sen. Gary Stevens 465-4925 Senator_Gary_Stevens@legis.state.ak.us
