Gov. Dunleavy withdraws plan to split Alaska Department of Health and Social Services

Print article
JUNEAU — Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy is withdrawing a plan to split the state Department of Health and Social Services into two agencies, citing “technical issues” with the executive order that set out the plan.
Legislative hearings over the past week have exposed potential legal problems with the governor’s proposal, and lawmakers have grown increasingly wary of the idea.
“I think that (order) had in concept broad support, but we’ve found a few action items that need addressing over the next several months, maybe over the summer,” said Sen. Click Bishop, R-Fairbanks, during a Thursday afternoon hearing about the proposal.
