OPENING LETTER

Dear Residents of our Great State,

We are proud to present you with the Alaska State Constitution. This Constitution represents the diverse and unique heritage of our young state. Alaska has one of the most advanced, coherent, and forthright constitutions, allowing the people to have a clear and firm understanding of State law.

“All political power is inherent in the people. All government originates with the people, is founded upon their will only, and is instituted solely for the good of the people as a whole.”

With a direct and straightforward narrative, the Alaska State Constitution gives the people the power to balance the authority and responsibilities split between the three branches of government.

As Governor and Lieutenant Governor, it is our goal to ensure Alaskans enjoy what is rightfully theirs and insure that the government remains of, for, and by the People.

Alaskans are diverse in many ways, but we are unified in our admiration and commitment to this, our grand and unparalleled state.

Sincerely,


Mike Dunleavy Governor	Nancy Dahlstrom Lieutenant Governor

INTRODUCTION

In 1955 the Territorial Legislature passed the Constitutional Convention Act, putting in motion the election of convention delegates by district ensuring territory-wide representation for the convention. Thirteen of the delegates were from Anchorage, 11 from Fairbanks, seven from Juneau and the remainder from 18 other communities. Fifty-five delegates from Election Districts, Federal Judicial Districts and from the Territory at large were elected by popular vote in the fall of that year. They were instructed to meet at the University of Alaska in Fairbanks, Alaska on November 8, 1955. These delegates, all Alaskans by choice or birth, had 75 days to study and write a constitutional document for the civil authority of a new state, “Alaska.” The hour arrived, the Colors presented, and the gathering united in prayer as they took on this new task – crafting a document that Alaskans would have to approve by vote. It began with tedium amidst our excitement to get on to the larger issues. We had to adapt meeting times to bus schedules; agree on rules governing the Convention and acquire a gavel – all interesting tidbits of the beginnings of history. These minor concerns were soon forgotten in the wake of arguments for unicameralism and for bicameralism; whether judges should be elected and how to ensure the wise use of our resources. Tis document is the product of Alaska pioneers, a spirit of independence and self-government. It is your guarantee that the Individual will always be in charge. Surely one is moved by the simplicity and power of this document. As delegates to the 1955-56 Constitutional Convention, we each sought to create a document that was powerful and personal. Please read it and understand its continuing dedication to you as the governor, not the governed.


John B. “Jack” Coghill Convention Delegate, former Senator and Lieutenant Governor

Congratulations! You're now booked up on Article 0 of the Alaska Constitution!

This material might help you recover from the damages that lawbreaking judges/lawyers/agencies/organizations have inflicted upon you [and/or the public] (see this example of a Florida judge who outright committed perjury).

Perhaps it'll [even] help you navigate through your state's administrative gauntlet. A gauntlet which might include – but not be limited to:

Nevertheless – and as always – please get the justice you deserve.

Sincerely,
