Governor Sets Veto Record in Alaska | Anchorage News

About this episode

Governor Dunleavy just shattered Alaska’s veto record with 31 vetoes in one session — breaking the old mid-90s mark of 25. He killed two bills: one requiring clearer fee notices at the University of Alaska, which he called unnecessary, and another tightening rules for resident hunting/fishing licenses, which he argued could unfairly exclude military and senior residents. Meanwhile, two other bills became law without his signature — one making the giant cabbage Alaska’s official state vegetable (yes, really), and another giving local school boards more budget and ethics control while allowing smaller communities to shrink their city councils. His selective vetoes and signings signal a major shift in how he’s wielding power compared to past governors.
