The version of the bill on the Alaska government's website appears to have at least one typo, but the part I was able to decipher is utter nonsense:
Quote:
...(a) A state or municipal agency may not use or authorize the use of an asset to implement or aid in the implementation of a requirement of
(1) an order of the President of the United States, a federal regulation, or a law enacted by the United States Congress that is applied to (A) infringe on a person's right, under the Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, to keep and bear arms;
(B) deny a person a right to due process, or a protection of due process, that would otherwise be available to the person under the Constitution of the State of Alaska or the Constitution of the United States; or ...

Bill Text 28th Legislature
Well, no ****, Sherlock. The geniuses in Alaska just passed a law that says that no state money can be used to violate federal law.

If they think they can establish by state statute what constitutes federal constitutional law, they need to read Article VI, Article 2 of the U.S. Constitution and the opinion written by the great Virginian, Chief Justice John Marshall, in Marbury v. Madison .

They are a bunch of grandstanding nincompoops.
