State lawmakers don Alaska Native garments to honor culture

In this Friday, March 25, 2016 photo, Senate President Kevin Meyer, R-Anchorage, changes into his kuspuk before a floor session in Juneau, Alaska. Meyer and several other legislators and staff take part in a "Kuspuk Friday" tradition during which they wear the pullover garment traditional to Alaska Natives. For more than a decade, the tradition has grown to include lawmakers and their staff and even Senate pages who are fitted and gifted with a kuspuk to be worn in lieu of their distinctive blazers on Fridays.
