I just have to say...not sure how many silversmiths and train conductors we actually have in AK but I donated to the @marypeltola.com campaign and I guess would qualify as a fisherman! #akleg
Mary Peltola raked in $1.5 million in the first 24 hours of her bid to unseat GOP Sen. Dan Sullivan in Alaska.

Her sizeable day-one haul was fueled by small-dollar donors from across Alaska, including fisherman, silversmiths and train conductors, per information her campaign shared first with us.

One of my heroes when I first got elected to the State House was Mary Peltola. She was a young, bold fighter from Western Alaska! She will be a strong leader in the Senate and a check against the current President. #akleg @marypeltola.com

What could possibly go wrong with an advertising campaign through a 'wartime recruitment' strategy directed to certain emboldened Americans? #akleg #defiance
Exclusive: ICE officials plan to spend $100 million to recruit gun-rights supporters and military enthusiasts through online influencers and a geo-targeted ad campaign, part of what the agency called a “wartime recruitment” strategy to hire thousands of officers, according to an internal document.

Fred Meyer in Fairbanks has a small 'free' produce section specifically for kids and people in need. Why should offering those in need be a government decision? #akleg
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Getting trolled by the AK Republican Party Chair! Finger pointing while a fire is burning down the house is unhelpful. Instead let us work together and pick up a water bucket and put the fire out! #winning #akleg 🔥

The U.S. Coast Guard sent an icebreaker to shadow two Chinese icebreakers in a part of the Arctic Ocean claimed by the United States, but those American claims aren't recognized by the rest of the world.
