OPINION

MATTHEWS, Justice.

This appeal and cross-appeal arise out of the termination of Sharman Haley from her position as a legislative researcher for the Legislative Affairs Agency. The dismissal followed a television interview in which Haley expressed her views on multinational corporations in Alaska. She alleges that the dismissal violated her right of free expression and gave rise to remedies against the responsible state officials and the State.
