JUNEAU, Alaska — House and Senate negotiators worked toward resolution Tuesday on an education package that sent the legislative session into overtime, nibbling away at points of possible agreement. While some lawmakers are eager to wrap things up, a key lawmaker said the process would not be rushed.

“It will come together really as quickly as we can find consensus in the building over either today, tomorrow or throughout the coming week,” said Rep. Mike Hawker, R-Anchorage, who is chairman of the bill’s conference committee. Hawker promised an open process that would allow the public and other lawmakers — several of whom sat in on the proceedings throughout the day — to follow the committee’s process in drafting a compromise bill.
