JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) â The Alaska House reached in dramatic fashion Monday an agreement that Gov. Mike Dunleavy said would avert a government shutdown.
House Speaker Louise Stutes indicated the outcome was not assured when she called the House to order, and House Minority Leader Cathy Tilton, who had been negotiating with Stutes, said things were âabsolutely, completely closeâ to unraveling.

As he tunes his acoustic guitar, the audience grows impatient and boos. “You see, my electric guitar
