Governor Mike Dunleavy has issued a proclamation for a 30-day special session to begin Saturday, August 2, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. in Juneau. The call will be limited to two items, education reform and an executive order creating the new Alaska Department of Agriculture.
“Enacting a few necessary reforms to our public education system can elevate those children struggling in Alaska’s school system,” said Governor Dunleavy. “As elected officials we must do all we can to put the next generation on the path to a successful and prosperous future, and that starts with a solid public education. Splitting the Division of Agriculture away from DNR into a department will elevate food security and support our hard-working farmers while growing the agricultural sector.”
The agriculture department EO and the education reform bill will be available on the first day of the special session. Click here for a copy of the special session proclamation.
