I like to say if you’ve been to one village, you’ve been to one village. We have more than 220 villages across Alaska, and every one of them deserves a voice in this campaign. Grateful for the warm welcome up here in the North Slope!

Grocery prices in Alaska have gone from bad to apocalyptic. Living at the end of the supply chain has always meant paying more. But Alaska families have never struggled this hard just to put food on the table. We need a fighter in DC working day and night to bring costs down.

‘A treat is $3 fun, not $8′: Alaskans look for ways to cut grocery costs
As Alaskans face soaring costs for housing, food and energy, financing the Alaska dream faces so many hurdles.

Alaskans deserve a senator who has a plan to tackle the rising cost of living, not one who dodges the question. Dan should be embarrassed.

Grocery store prices in rural Alaska right now. Most goods here come by barge or plane, so life here has always cost more. But this? This is as bad as it's ever been. This is what the price-hiking war in Iran is costing Alaskans. Dan Sullivan has now voted for it 14 times.

When Barrow High started playing football 20 years ago, plenty of people doubted it would last. The Barrow Whalers and the Utqiaġvik families cheering them on have proved them all wrong – five Division III title games in 10 years 👏 Go Whalers!

High school football in the Arctic was a bold idea 20 years ago. Now, Utqiagvik’s team is proving it’s more than a curiosity.
The Barrow High School Whalers have been to the Division III title game five times in 10 years. That’s just one way the team is having an impact, coaches and community members say.

The corporate greed crushing hardworking Americans has a face in Alaska – and it’s the out-of-state factory trawling industry. I'm fighting to stop them from destroying our fisheries and our economy. Dan Sullivan has taken hundreds of thousands of dollars from them.

Dan Sullivan is a part of the rigged system that’s stealing from hardworking Alaska families to give tax breaks to millionaires and billionaires. It’s like reverse Robin Hood.

Our roads, pipelines, and schools in Alaska were built by union labor. Our workers have always shown up for Alaska, and I'll always show up for them by fighting for fair wages, safe workplaces, and the freedom to organize. Grateful for the support of labor leaders like Heidi.

Found this one in the family album. That's me, growing up in Western Alaska. Some of my earliest memories are of summers at fish camp and a community that always looked out for one another. That Alaska is worth fighting for. I'm running for Senate to protect it for the next generation.

When Alaskans elect someone to represent us in DC, we expect them to put Alaska first. No exceptions. Dan Sullivan has been putting himself and his donors before Alaska, whether it’s the Lower 48 factory trawling fleet, his billionaire backers, or the Epstein Class.

Alaskans use 4x more diesel per person than the rest of the nation. Alaskans can’t afford a senator who has voted for the Iran war that’s sent diesel prices soaring over 10 times.

Families in Dillingham are worried if they can heat their homes this winter. Meanwhile, Dan Sullivan continues to vote for the war that’s jacking up the price of diesel. Alaskans deserve better than Dan Sullivan.

Alaskans have always rejected Lower 48 partisanship to put Alaska first. Whether you're a Democrat, an Independent, or a Republican, I'll always stand with Alaskans. Proud to have the support of Republican voters across Alaska who are ready for change.

Across Alaska, hardworking families are being pushed past the breaking point, unable to cover the bills and forced to choose between food and fuel. The Last Frontier needs a leader fighting to lower costs, not one voting for the war that's raising them.

Fighting for Alaska means working around the clock to make life here more affordable. Dan Sullivan is too busy fighting for his own stock portfolio, voting for tariffs that grow his personal wealth and a war that's driving up your costs.

Today I'm in King Cove on the Aleutian Chain, talking with Alaska fishermen whose livelihoods are being wiped out by industrial factory trawlers and corporate greed in DC. They can't afford to wait, and neither can our fisheries. I'm fighting to make DC work for all of Alaska.

Dan Sullivan's votes for tariffs didn't help Alaska, but they sure helped his brother's chemical company, where he owns up to $5 million in stock. This is the exact kind of corruption that Alaskans are sick and tired of.

In Yup'ik, the word for fish is the same as the word for food: neqa. For Alaskans, fish has always been the heart of who we are and the fabric that ties our communities together.

This week, Alaskans statewide started receiving their PFD checks. But with DC price hikes and the war in Iran driving costs through the roof, this year's check won't go as far as it used to. It's time for a leader who treats our affordability crisis like the emergency it is.

Rising costs are one thing when you're talking about the Lower 48. In Alaska, it's a whole different ballgame – we're facing the highest costs in the nation. We need leaders fighting to bring costs down, not leaders who voted for the price-hiking Iran war more than 10 times.

Strong fisheries and healthy salmon runs are the lifeblood of Alaska’s economy, communities, and people. I’m in this race to restore abundance, reduce bycatch, and take on the Lower 48 factory trawlers that are hurting our Alaska way of life.
