This bill died with 33rd Legislature (2023-2024). It reached “To Executive” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

Vetoed by Governor Mike Dunleavy (Republican) on October 09, 2024.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there are no live odds of enactment. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Plain-language change summary

The recent amendments to Bill HB 122 increase the maximum amount of revenue bonds the Alaska Railroad Corporation can issue to finance the construction of a new passenger dock and terminal facility in Seward from $60 million to $135 million. This change is significant because it provides more financial resources for the project, which aims to better accommodate Alaska marine highway system vessels. By allowing the corporation flexibility in how and when to issue these bonds, it enhances their ability to manage funding effectively and ensure the timely replacement of the aging facility.
