## Resource

Governor Dunleavy just vetoed two bipartisan bills—one to tackle invasive species threatening Alaska’s ecosystems and economy, and another to ban polystyrene foam containers to curb plastic pollution. He called them overreach that would burden businesses, claiming existing systems could handle the issues. But scientists and environmental groups fired back, calling the veto misguided and a missed chance to protect wildlife, public health, and future generations. The divide is stark: lawmakers and advocates see these as urgent, practical steps, while the governor sees them as government expansion he won’t support. The fight’s not over—advocates are already preparing to push these bills again. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
