Alaska Statutes Title 24. Legislature and Lobbying § 24.10.130. Moving expenses and per diem allowance

(a) A member of the legislature may be entitled to reimbursement for the expenses of moving between the member's place of residence and the capital city for the purpose of attending a regular session of the legislature.

(b) Legislators and officers and employees of the legislative branch of government may be entitled to a per diem allowance; however, if a bill that fully funds an operating budget has not, within the first 121 consecutive days of a regular legislative session, including the day the legislature first convenes in that regular session, been passed by the legislature, a member of the legislature is not entitled to a daily per diem allowance for a day the legislature is in session after that 121-day period until the first day after a bill that fully funds an operating budget is passed by the legislature or the first day of the next regular legislative session, whichever occurs earlier. In this subsection, “passed by the legislature” has the meaning given in AS 01.10.070.

(c) The Alaska Legislative Council shall adopt a policy in accordance with (b) of this section and AS 39.23.540(d) regarding reimbursement for moving expenses and payment of a per diem allowance. The policy must set conditions for the reimbursement for moving expenses and payment of per diem and prescribe the amounts of reimbursement adapted to the special needs of the legislative branch as determined by the council.
