AKVMA's legislative team is your exclusive advocate at the state level serving as the voice of the veterinary community in Alaska. With the guidance and direction of the AKVMA board of directors, the legislative team monitors, supports and opposes legislation that impacts Alaska's veterinary community and profession. AKVMA is also proactive to respond to proposed regulations and regulatory changes that affect veterinarians.
There are several ways to make your concerns known to your legislators; testify at the legislature, or talk to your legislators.
The American Veterinary Medical Association represents the interests of veterinarians through strategically targeted advocacy in Congress, with regulatory agencies, and before the courts. The AVMA works as a trusted partner to complement the advocacy of the AKVMA.
All bills are listed on the Alaska State Legislature website in the bills and laws section.
The testimony opportunities are updated and listed here.
