"I am pleased to work with Senator Lisa Murkowski on this effort to support Alaska's men and women serving to protect the safety and freedom of Americans," said Governor Frank H. Murkowski. "The Fish and Game license purchase refund is a small thank you for the tremendous sacrifices and efforts they are making on our behalf." Senator Murkowski said, "I was pleased to make a request to the state that they mitigate the expense of a purchased hunting or fishing license for those Alaskans who have been deployed overseas. This is one way to thank these men and women for their sacrifices and the considerable disruption to their and their families' lives resulting from their activation.
