Dear Friend,
I hope this message finds you well. Last month, I reached out on behalf of Build Alaska’s Future Action Fund (BAF Action), a nonprofit committed to promoting democracy, transparency, and balanced politics. Today, I’m following up with an urgent and time-sensitive request.
We have just 52 days before the election, and early voting starts soon. Mary Peltola, the first Alaska Native member of Congress, is facing Nick Begich III a Trump-aligned opponent in what will be a tough re-election. Securing her seat is critical—not only for Alaska but for the entire country. With Mary in Congress, we’re one seat closer to a Democratic majority, building a blue firewall to protect America from Project 2025, an extremist far-right agenda that could reshape our nation in dangerous ways.
Project 2025 would:
- Use an 1870s law to limit abortion access nationwide
-
Eliminate the Department of Education
- Force federal agencies to enforce a ‘biblically based’ definition of marriage and family
- Introduce a new national sales tax, costing the average family $2,500 per year
-
Slash critical programs like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
This agenda would be disastrous for Alaska and the country as a whole. To combat it, Build Alaska’s Future Action Fund is dedicated to transparency, education, and protecting Alaska’s legacy of bipartisanship. Mary Peltola stands for the same values, working across party lines for solutions that benefit all Alaskans.
We need your immediate support to raise funds for a hyper-targeted digital ad campaign that will get Mary’s message out to voters. Every dollar counts. Can we count on you to donate today?
Your contribution is essential in making sure we have the resources to fight back against extremist agendas like Project 2025 and to support leaders like Mary, who put Alaska first.
Every donation, no matter the amount, brings us one step closer to securing a better future for Alaska and America. Please don’t wait—we need your support now to ensure Mary has the resources she needs to win.
I know you are being asked to contribute to many important races, and if you are like me, you may be over your campaign budget for the year. But consider this: more than any other race in Alaska this year, Mary’s is an opportunity for Alaska to make a significant positive contribution to a productive Congress and protect our nation against an extremist takeover in DC.
Thank you for your continued commitment to Alaska’s future. Let’s make sure Mary stays in Congress to fight for our state and against extremism.
Sincerely,
Fran Ulmer
Former Lt. Governor of Alaska
Steering Committee Member of Build Alaska’s Future Action Fund
