Dear Neighbor,

As you know, I try hard to keep in touch with my constituents.  As always, thank you for communicating with me.  I’ve had great conversations with many of you.  This week, I thought it might be helpful to provide you with some valuable internet resources for staying informed.

• For current information about the legislature and about our neighborhoods, please visit my website at www.gretchenguess.com.  On this site you will find links to neighborhood contacts, my bills and the sponsor statements explaining them, newsletters, recent press, opinion and editorial pieces, and much more.

• On my website, we are now posting a weekly survey question – the results of which will be in next week’s email.  This week’s question is about Alaska’s fiscal problems:  “The Alaska Conference of Mayors this week passed a resolution declaring, ‘a vote of no confidence in the Legislature based on past performance in addressing Alaska’s fiscal crisis.’  Do you have confidence the Legislature can fix the fiscal problems of the state?”  Visit www.GretchenGuess.com to answer this question.
