House Rules Chair Nancy Dahlstrom held back HB3 from a floor vote this past session that would prevent illegal aliens from getting an Alaskan ID/drivers license.
Dahlstrom terminated the staffer of the sponsor of HB3 when she requested information from him and did not like his passion on the Bill. Dahlstrom was challenged by her Republican colleagues to put HB3 on the floor for a vote and on her harsh action in firing a staffer.
HB3 failed on the floor 23-17 with 6 Republicans: Dahlstrom, Fairclough; Austerman; Seaton; Peggy and Tammie Wilson voting to kill the Bill.
Alaskans for Legal Presence (ALP) made it public of its discontent with these Republicans; and includes that Dahlstrom was a key player working with convicted legislator Pete Kott to overthrow the more conservative House Chair in 2004.Did the Parnell Administration have a vetting process with Dahlstrom? Why is the Parnell Administration hiring Dahlstrom for $96,000 a year to represent Military and Veterans Affairs? The Staffer she fired was a former U.S. Marine; and Dahlstrom has no military service experience.
