AK HJR40

Clarifies existing constitutional provisions preventing legislators from holding other offices of profit during their term and for one year after, with exceptions for governor, secretary of state, and member of Congress.

Adds new disqualification provision barring legislators from running for the legislature for four years after their term ends if the legislature fails to pass an appropriations bill covering state government expenses within 120 consecutive calendar days of a regular session start.

Applies the new disqualification amendment only to legislators serving in sessions that convene after January 1, 2019.

Requires the proposed constitutional amendments to be placed before voters at the next general election following standard procedures under Alaska constitutional law.
