Rep. Josephson’s Newsletter: Looking Forward to a New Year and a New Session
January 6, 2014
Dear Friends and Neighbors,
Five days from now I will pack up the car and begin the drive to Haines, at which point I will board a ferry headed to Juneau. In my previous newsletter I may have mislead you regarding the start date of the legislative session. To be clear, the first day of session is Tuesday January 21, 2014. However, before I leave, I hope to see you all tomorrow night at Wendler Middle School from 5:30pm – 7pm to discuss the future of natural gas in Alaska with specialist Larry Persily. Best wishes in the New Year!

But it doesn’t have to be that way and hopefully in the next year, the Legislature and the voters can turn it around.
