Rep. David Eastman, R-Wasilla, speaks to Rep. Craig Johnson, R-Anchorage, during a. break in debates over the state operating budget on Monday, April 3, 2023, at the Alaska State Capitol in Juneau, Alaska.
“Both of those complaints will be moved forward into an investigation,” said Joyce Anderson, chair of the House Subcommittee on Legislative Ethics. Despite the waiver, staff for the ethics committee said they were unable to release copies of the complaints. Informed of that fact, Eastman said, “The statute is explicit that once confidentiality has been waived, the public has access to those documents. They can stonewall, but they do so in direct violation of the statute. It wouldn’t be the first time they have delayed access. They also tried that when I was on the committee.
