The Alaska State Legislature has passed a resolution to extend the governor's declaration of a disaster emergency, initially made on October 9, 2025, in response to the severe impacts of the 2025 West Coast Storm. This declaration has been previously extended multiple times, and with the current expiration set for March 8, 2026, the legislature recognizes the ongoing need for emergency actions and infrastructure support due to the storm's lasting effects.

Under Alaska Statute AS 26.23.020(c), the legislature is required to extend the disaster emergency through a concurrent resolution if it is to remain in effect beyond 30 days. The resolution extends the emergency declaration until April 7, 2026, and is made retroactive to March 8, 2026, allowing state agencies to continue their emergency response efforts effectively.
