This is not government of the people, by the people, for the people – it is government of the hunters, by the hunters, for the hunters.
According to the Alaska Constitution, our wildlife belongs to all of us. Even in Alaska, hunters are a minority. While non-hunting family members and friends often partake of wild game harvested by hunters, I’d be surprised if most Alaskans eat game meat every year, and most households living along the state’s road and ferry corridors don’t rely on it.
But Dunleavy treats the Board of Game very differently. He hasn’t appointed anybody without hunting credentials. The State Medical Board has eight members appointed by the governor. Two members must “have no direct financial interest in the health care industry.” The Board of Governors of the Alaska Bar has 14 members, three of whom must be non-attorneys. The commission that Porcaro was appointed to has only two members, neither of which may have a vested economic interest in commercial fishing. I could go on, but you can see the pattern here.
Why can’t the Board of Game use that model? The board’s policy requires only that members have an “interest in public affairs, good judgment, knowledge, and ability in the field of action of the board.” Laughably, considering the roster of board appointments since statehood, the policy claims it ensures a “diversity of interest and points of view in the membership.”
