Gubernatorial Candidate Bill Walker will be on KSRM’s Soundoff at 10:00 am and the Tall Dark and Handsome Show at 4:00 pm Thursday, June 12.
Walker expressed disappointment last month with the governor’s signing of Senate Bill 138, the next legislative step for the Alaska LNG pipeline. Walker has also been widely recognized for his opposition to the Governor’s new oil taxes. We asked if he would have thrown his name in the hat if SB21 hadn’t been signed into law…
Walker: “You know, I think I would. I’m not a single issue person. I’m just tired of Alaska not playing offense. We play a whole lot of defense, but don’t play much offense on our resource development. We rely upon other people to do something, we let other people determine what size or what kind of development we do and I’m just not a defense person. I think there’s an appropriate time, but if you don’t play some offense on the field you’re never going to move the ball forward.”
