It prohibits legislators and legislative employees from soliciting campaign contributions in Anchorage during regular sessions and restricts candidates for governor or lieutenant governor from doing so in Anchorage during any legislative session. The bill allows special sessions to be held anywhere in the state, with the governor or presiding officers designating the location. Additionally, it updates lobbying registration requirements and provides travel expense reimbursement for legislators attending regular sessions in Anchorage.
