Alaska would be on the same time zone as Seattle for four months of the year, if a bill passed Monday by the Alaska Senate becomes law. The Senate voted 18-2 to pass Senate Bill 26, which would eliminate daylight saving time in Alaska and ask the federal government to put Alaska on Pacific Standard Time. “Senate Bill 26 is a compromise that addresses long-standing frustrations with Alaska’s timekeeping system,” said Sen. Kelly Merrick, R-Eagle River and the bill’s sponsor.

The Alaska House of Representatives has issued messages honoring high school sports teams, Olympic gold medalists, farmers, anniversaries, and even notable animals. In an unusual move on Friday, it declined to bestow honors on conservative political commentator Suzanne Downing. In a 21-17 vote, the House tabled a citation from Rep. Jamie Allard, R-Eagle River that praised Downing. Rep. Zack Fields, D-Anchorage, led the vote to turn down the citation.
