AGP Executive Report
Last update: 4 hours agoAlaska Politics: Alaska’s Division of Elections released a sample ballot meant to distinguish between two Dan Sullivans in the U.S. Senate race after the Alaska Supreme Court ordered Petersburg Dan J. Sullivan reinstated; the incumbent is listed as “Sullivan, Dan S. (Registered Republican) Incumbent,” while the challenger appears as “Sullivan, Daniel J. Jr.” with no party shown.

Fisheries: Sen. Dan Sullivan updated his Bycatch Reduction Act, aiming for stronger limits on trawling gear and seafloor contact while increasing transparency around bycatch monitoring. State Law Changes: Several new Alaska laws take effect July 1, including a minimum wage increase to $14 an hour and a major criminal and public safety package that raises the age of consent from 16 to 18. Business & Industry: Nova Minerals appointed a former JP Morgan metals and mining finance professional to its board as it pushes forward U.S. critical minerals work, including antimony production plans. Community Safety: Alaska Department of Fish and Game urged people to give newborn wildlife space—don’t approach or feed fawns and bear cubs, and keep dogs leashed.
