Governor Palin:
This is to ask for the second year in a row if you will please appoint
me as a Public Member, Alaska Bar Association Board of Governors. I
believe I am correct that the term of Mr. Joseph Faulhaber, 345 Pay
Streak Drive, Fairbanks, Alaska 99712 (907)457-2010 joe@acsalaska.net
expires on March 1, 2008. Mr. Faulhaber has bragged that he has been a
Public Member, Alaska Bar Association Board of Governors, under four
Governors including you. If you appoint me, I will make you proud of my
efforts. It is time for fair Alaska law licensure.
Best of luck in all of your endeavors.
Sincerely yours,
Theresa
