What does Alaska Department of Fish and Game do?

The State of Alaska is the governing body of the U.S. state of Alaska, organized into three branches: executive, legislative, and judicial. This structure ensures a system of checks and balances, as outlined in the Alaska Constitution. The government employs around 15,000 people, primarily within the executive branch, which is led by the elected Governor and Lieutenant Governor. The executive branch includes 15 major departments that provide essential services such as education, public safety, health, and infrastructure. The Alaska Legislature is responsible for enacting laws and appropriating funds. It consists of a bicameral system with a House of Representatives and a Senate, each representing distinct districts. The judicial branch interprets laws through the Alaska Court System, which includes the Supreme Court and various lower courts. Local governments manage additional municipal services under the oversight of the state government.
