Plain English Breakdown

The official text uses bracketed numbers (e.g., '2032 [2024]') to show changes, which implies the previous date was June 30, 2024, but this is inferred from formatting rather than explicit narrative confirmation.

Extending the End Dates for Four State Boards

This law extends the scheduled end dates for four specific state boards in Alaska and makes these changes apply starting from July 1, 2024.

  • Changes the termination date of the Board of Massage Therapists to June 30, 2030.
  • Changes the termination date of the Alaska Commission on Aging to June 30, 2032.
  • Changes the termination date of the Marijuana Control Board to June 30, 2027.
  • Makes this law apply retroactively starting from July 1, 2024.

Terms To Know
