On April 10, Alaska enacted into law legislation that extended a moratorium on foreclosures, evictions, and repossessions, and also called for forbearance plans pertaining to specific state loans. The bill extended the governor’s March 11 executive order declaring a state of emergency and imposed temporary changes to state laws and regulations in response to the Covid-19 crisis. Legislative action was required to extend the governor’s executive order beyond 30 days.
