## Resource

Alaska’s legislature wrapped up a whirlwind session, passing over seventy bills in the final week—mostly bipartisan—with the governor now deciding which become law. Key wins include new protections for foster youth in psychiatric care, mandatory payment timelines for nonprofits, and a unanimous ban on certain school food dyes. Other measures tackle government efficiency, hunting license rules, adding a judge in Palmer, and even baby boxes for anonymous surrenders—all aimed at improving child welfare, public safety, and state operations.
