Borough Mayor Rodney Dial wrote the resolution, which was co-sponsored by Assembly Member Jeremy Bynum.
Dial said in a phone interview Friday that the resolution was motivated by actions that President Joe Biden announced on April 8 aimed at reducing gun violence.
More than a dozen members of the public submitted written comment ahead of Monday s meeting, most supportive of the resolution. Among those who wrote in support were former Ketchikan City Council Member Dick Coose, Ketchikan Mayor Bob Sivertsen and former Ketchikan School Board member and 2020 Alaska House District 36 candidate Leslie Becker.
Eight citizens spoke at the meeting in person, most of whom voiced their support for the resolution, including City Council Member Riley Gass. City Council Member Janalee Gage delivered a lengthy set of remarks to the Assembly, urging it not to take up the resolution.
The Ketchikan Gateway Borough Assembly on Monday will consider a resolution opposing unconstitutional infringement of the rights of borough citizens under the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution, and urging the Governor and Legislature of the State of Alaska to oppose broad restrictions on the rights of citizens to bear arms.
Borough Mayor Rodney Dial wrote the resolution, which was co-sponsored by Assembly Member Jeremy Bynum.
Borough Attorney Glenn Brown reviewed the resolution before it was put on the agenda, though Dial and Brown both emphasized that he was not involved in drafting the resolution.
Motivation
Dial said the resolution was prompted by a series of recent actions taken by President Joe Biden to address gun violence that may infringe upon the rights of law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms, he wrote in the sponsor statement for the resolution.
