ANCHORAGE - In this week's installment of Alaska's View from the Hill, Senator Mark Begich sat down with CBS 11's Sean Doogan in the KTVA studio.

Topics included the still-proposed move of F-16s from Eielson Air Force Base in Fairbanks to Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, and what the economic effects may be; why the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has its own police corps; new Federal Communications Commission rules about posting financial information online; whether Senator Begich would support SuperPACs supporting him in an election; and why Begich is working to ease restrictions on travel visas from certain countries.
