Yesterday in Bethel, I had the privilege of meeting with leaders like Ana Hoffman, Valerie Davidson, and Stosh Hoffman. We talked openly about food access, hunting and fishing, education and ANSEP, climate resilience, and the need for safe, reliable housing and infrastructure.

Thank you for your support Senator Kawasaki!
“I know Tom will be a great Governor, because he knows how to get the job done. As Minority Leader he took the lead in fighting for Alaskans, and for us. Working across the aisle, he locked in our priorities and delivered for Alaskans.” - Scott Kawasaki

As Native American Heritage Month ends, I’m reflecting on what I heard in Southeast: too many barriers and outside rules, and too little respect for local knowledge. Food sovereignty, safety, and self-determination are basic rights. It should be easier for communities to take care of their own.

This Thanksgiving, I'm reminded that too many Alaskan families still struggle to put food on the table while programs like SNAP are politicized. Let's uphold our values and ensure no one goes hungry. If you're able, please support your local food bank or the Food Bank of Alaska: fba.givecloud.co

Thank you for your hospitality, Gustavus! I appreciate you letting me stop by and share my vision for a Southeast with more trade schools and economic opportunity, more tourism and more much-needed housing. Let’s build a future that works for all of us!

Hard work, grit, and local expertise. That’s how we build things in Alaska, and the craftsmen at Small Town Custom Guitars in Gustavus are no different. Homegrown businesses are the lifeblood of the Alaskan economy, and as governor I’ll be a champion for them.

In Kake, I saw first-hand the impact of my work on the Reads Act. With their Pre-K grant, Kake is building high-quality early education programs that will be rolled into our school funding formula. From Pre-K to UA, I’m committed to building the education system Alaska deserves.

What a joy to spend time in Haines and Klukwan with everyone who came out to our listening tour! Thank you for showing up and speaking out! Together, we can strengthen the ferry system, increase tourism and make sure young Alaskans can afford to stay in the communities they love.

Thanks to Ketchikan and Saxman for kicking off my Southeast tour with me! You spoke up about what matters: Better schools, affordable housing, reliable ferries and opportunities that keep our young people in Alaska. Change starts by listening, and that’s exactly what we're here to do.

Spoke at the No Kings Rally today. Defending democracy is the job of every Governor. It’s not being a Democrat or a Republican. It’s about being an Alaskan.

On the eve of the 59th annual AFN Convention, I’m excited to announce the endorsement of Chuck Degnan. A proud Alaska Native, Degnan served our state admirably as a state rep and as the Bering Strait Coastal Resource Service Manager. Proud to have you on the team, Chuck!

Mine and Sarah’s thoughts are with all our friends in Western and Northwest Alaska today. So glad Governor Dunleavy declared a state of emergency. All Alaskans need to stand together today.

“As Minority Leader in the Senate, Tom knew how to listen, he knew how to lead, and he knew how to get things done.
Those are the skills we need now to secure our future. He’ll fight for a fair share of our resources, better schools, and a fair shake for regular Alaskans. That’s just who he is.”

Multi-week power outages, annual rate increases in excess of 10% or more, and a grid less reliable than 2/3rds of the country. Alaska deserves a reliable, affordable energy plan that works for all of us, whether you live in the Railbelt or our most rural communities (1/3).
