FAILURE TO DISCLOSE BUSINESS INTERESTS FOR YEARS

A citizen activist has filed a detailed complaint with the Alaska Public Offices Commission alleging that former Attorney General Treg Taylor, who is now a candidate for governor, failed for years to disclose required business interests on his Public Official Financial Disclosure (POFD) statements.

The complaint, submitted by Wasilla resident Tyler Vose, asserts that Taylor repeatedly omitted two limited liability companies connected to him and his wife: Beluga Point Investments LLC and Beluga Point Holdings LLC. Both are registered at the couple’s listed address on Jarvi Drive in Anchorage.

Taylor served as Alaska’s Attorney General from January 2021 until stepping down in August 2025 to run for governor. Before that, he was Assistant Attorney General. As a cabinet-level official, he was required to file annual POFD reports under oath, attesting to their completeness.

According to the complaint:

Beluga Point Investments LLC

  • Created July 26, 2018

  • Owned 50/50 by Taylor and his wife

  • Never disclosed on Taylor’s POFDs filed in 2019, 2020, 2021, or 2022

  • First reported on March 14, 2023—more than four years after its creation

The complaint argues that Taylor may also have failed to report income from Beluga Point Investments, if any was generated.

Beluga Point Holdings LLC

  • Created November 3, 2020

  • Solely owned by Taylor’s wife

  • Never reported on any POFD filing

  • Administratively dissolved in 2024

The complaint says this omission covers just under four years of required filings.

The filing cites Alaska Statute 39.50.030(b)(2), which requires disclosure of every business entity in which the official, spouse, or dependent child holds any ownership, membership, or managerial role.

It also cites AS 39.50.030(a), requiring that each disclosure “accurately represent the financial affairs of the official and each family member to the extent ascertainable.”

The POFD form instructions specifically mandate disclosure of all LLCs, even if they produce no income.

The sharpest portion of the complaint is its argument that the omissions were not accidental but potentially deliberate. In the section titled “Knowing and Willful Conduct,” Vose writes:

“Mr. Taylor is an experienced Alaska public official and an annual POFD filer. As Deputy Attorney General and later Attorney General from January 2021 through August 2025, Mr. Taylor possessed unique expertise and direct responsibility for understanding and enforcing Alaska’s disclosure laws. By certifying each POFD report under oath, Taylor affirmed the completeness and accuracy of his financial disclosures.”

“The ownership interests in Beluga Point Investments LLC and Beluga Point Holdings LLC were clear, readily verifiable in state DCCED filings, and personally significant… easily ascertainable by any diligent filer—and especially by someone with Mr. Taylor’s professional background, access to legal resources, and statutory authority.”

“Mr. Taylor’s repeated failure over multiple annual filings to disclose his and his wife’s direct business interests cannot reasonably be described as inadvertent… These facts establish what can reasonably be viewed as a deliberate withholding of material information… The pattern and duration of nondisclosure indicate knowing and willful conduct, potentially constituting a violation of AS 39.50.060, including fines, public sanction, and possible criminal prosecution.”

The complaint stresses that Taylor, as Alaska’s chief legal officer for more than four years, had a heightened responsibility to understand and follow disclosure laws.

Vose is asking APOC to open an investigation into the omissions and require a correction to the records and a determination of the full amount that was unreported. He also suggests referring the matter for criminal prosecution, if warranted, and appropriate fines and penalties.

Taylor recently used a state jacket associated with his work in the Attorney General’s Office as he posed for a campaign photo, a possible violation of Alaska ethics laws.

  1. As AG, Treg Taylor didn’t accomplish much for Alaskans as pertains to public advocacy and criminal justice reform. The Alaska Supreme Court corruption is at the forefront of my complaint
    Taylor simply and always has advanced his political career.
