Good for LeDoux to bring belt tightening to a gut level. 

To Sen. Kim Jun Meyer:  The new lounge prices are still cheaper than at local restaurants. Your lobby/oil buddies will pick up the extra 50 cents in the potato chip vending machine. 

As for the crab: Our legislators should have the opportunity to eat Alaska seafood as often as possible so they will appreciate it more.  Crab from Dutch could be served in other ways besides pricey leg clusters. 

Many people in Alaska do not have access to locally caught seafood. If you're from the Interior, your life isn't wrapped around fish. We in coastal Alaska forget that. 

I hope LeDoux will push for seafoods caught by fellow Alaskans to always be available in the legislative lounge. Tell what kind of fish it is, where it comes from  and other details at a glance. Maybe a featured Fish on Friday.  It would be a great way to raise the profile of our fishing industry.
