Advocating for Alaska's Environment

The Alliance employs a Legislative Director and a Professional Lobbyist in Juneau. Our legislative staff works closely with advocates from the Southeast Alaska Conservation Council, Northern Alaska Environmental Center, and Alaska Center for the Environment through our Strategies for Alaska's Future (SAF) Program.

The conservation community's priorities for this session will focus around proactive issues like preventing contamination in salmon habitat and promoting renewable energy. As always we will work defensively to safeguard critical habitat and prevent the disposal of key public lands.

The Alliance also hosts an biennial legislative Fly-In. Every other year, we gather dozens of Alaskans to learn about and discuss current issues affecting Alaska's environment. Fly-In advocates spend a day in the Capitol at the end of the training to bring their message to legislators. If you are interested in learning more about the next Fly-In, contact info@akvoice.org.
