AS 39.52.180. Restrictions On Employment After Leaving State Service.

(a) A public officer who leaves state service may not, for two years after leaving state service, represent, advise, or assist a person for compensation regarding a matter that was under consideration by the administrative unit served by that public officer, and in which the officer participated personally and substantially through the exercise of official action. For the purposes of this subsection, "matter" includes a case, proceeding, application, contract, or determination, but does not include the proposal or consideration of legislative bills, resolutions and constitutional amendments, or other legislative measures; or the proposal, consideration, or adoption of administrative regulations.

(b) This section does not prohibit an agency from contracting with a former public officer to act on a matter on behalf of the state.

(c) The head of an agency may waive application of (a) of this section after determining that representation by a former public officer is not adverse to the public interest. The waiver must be in writing and a copy of the waiver must be provided to the attorney general for approval or disapproval.

(d) A former governor, lieutenant governor, or head of a principal department in the executive branch may not engage in activity as a lobbyist under AS 24.45 for a period of one year after leaving service as the governor, lieutenant governor, or department head, as appropriate. This subsection does not prohibit service as a volunteer lobbyist described in AS 24.45.161 (a)(1) or a representational lobbyist as defined under regulations of the Alaska Public Offices Commission.
