Hey, Alaska Senate! Where\u2019s my $38 million? The governor reprogrammed $38 million from the dead-end Juneau Access Road project to cover other transportation infrastructure needs and capital projects in Southeast, but it seems you re-reprogrammed it to sit in a bank account instead of doing something with it.<\/p>\n
