The least we can do [Sign your name]

Hi friends, Last Monday, I sat in a drill hall at Anchorage’s Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in commemoration of Veterans Day. During the Fallen Soldier Ceremony, I reflected on the countless Alaskans who gave their lives in defense of our country and of the families that they lef…

November 15th

Hi friends, In the past few months, our movement has had tremendous success, outraising Don Young and turning this race into a dead heat. That kind of success attracts attention when going against a 47 year incumbent. We need to keep up the pace to show them just how serious this …

What’s up Wednesday results

Hi all, A few weeks ago we sent around a What’s Up Wednesday survey (please fill it out if you haven’t), and we wanted to follow up to share the results with you. Your most popular answers were climate change, healthcare, and education. That’s no surprise. These are the issues …

"Don Young head-butted a camera to avoid answering a question about Trump"

This headline says it all, really: Don Young head-butted a camera to avoid answering a question about Trump -Washington Post Yes, that really happened. Alaska needs leadership, not someone who gets attention for “head-butting.” We’re confident th…

Let’s do this together

Hi friends, When Alyse first brought me here over 25 years ago, she taught me that in Alaska folks know that working together gets better results than working alone, and that it’s about what you do for others not what you do for yourself that counts. And we know that at the end of…

Donald Trump tweeted what??

Hi friends, Donald Trump tweeted his support for his buddy Gov. Dunleavy today, saying that Alaskans are treating him “unfairly.” This is bogus, and everyone in Alaska knows it. Alyse wasn’t afraid to set the record straight: Meanwhile, in Washington Don Young has been silent…

Let’s give Washington something to talk about

Hi friends, As you’ve probably heard, Alyse outraised Don Young and this race is now a dead heat. That’s all because of the support you’ve shown our campaign. But when someone like Alyse outraises an incumbent who has been in Congress for 47 years, it tends to attract some attent…

Healthcare for kids should be bigger than partisan politics. Add your name.

Friends, The Children’s Health Insurance Program, or CHIP, is a program that gives nine million American children access to healthcare every year. Half of Alaska’s children have access to healthcare because of CHIP. CHIP has had bipartisan support since it was passed in 1997. Yet,…
