Alaska voters are perfectly capable of vetoing any bad legislation- lest the House or Senate forget who is really in charge.  The power of referendum is a Constitutionally recognized liberty just like free speech or freedom of religion.

Legislators from both sides of the aisle have failed us, with their wasteful spending on themselves (House and Senate), their massive corporate welfare (Senate), income taxes that will make the Alaska recession worse (House), the failure to get a fair return on billions of dollars of our oil (Senate).

What is lost in this lack of leadership is the need to place the health of the Alaska economy over that of the budget deficit.  It is very clear the legislature just does not have a coherent vision.
