Bill > SJR30

This joint resolution expresses gratitude for the United States military and supports increased defense readiness through infrastructure development and public-military partnerships. It acknowledges Alaska's vital role in national defense due to its strategic location and significant military presence, including numerous bases and a large veteran population. The resolution highlights the need for expanded military infrastructure, such as new aircraft squadrons, icebreakers, and missile defense systems, which will require additional civilian support infrastructure like housing and services for military families. It also emphasizes the importance of public-military partnerships, including "enhanced-use leases" (where private entities develop housing on underutilized military land) and "dual-use infrastructure" (facilities that serve both military and civilian needs), to address housing shortages, improve resilience, and ensure military installations remain desirable assignments.
