Today’s episode of The Empty Office Podcast features a wide-ranging conversation between Senator Tobin and Representative Genevieve Mina from Anchorage about several topics, including healthcare policy, the University of Alaska, and the effort to reinstate a defined benefits pension system for State of Alaska employees.
One of the main topics of conversation is legislation sponsored by Senator Tobin and Representative Mina to create the Welcoming Alaska Office to support the integration of immigrants, refugees, migrants, and temporary workers arriving and resettling in Alaska. House Bill 188 and Senate Bill 169 would replace the existing office of Citizenship Assistance with the Welcoming Alaska Office.
This episode of The Empty Office Podcast was recorded on day 110 of the legislative session in Juneau, which is constitutionally limited to 121 days.
The music for this episode of The Empty Office Podcast is the song Fairies Wear Boots by the band Brown Sabbath.
