100’s of Alaskans stood in the cold & demanded the legislature raise the Base Student Allocation! #akleg #raisetheakbsa - I was joined by colleagues from the House & Senate! With teachers leaving, class sizes increasing, & decreasing elective choices, it is Time to get this done!

Reflection on the legacy of MLK Jr. We are indebted to this great man who fought for our freedoms & paid the ultimate price. His fight for democracy & social justice serves as a foundation for our work this session. I will do my best to honor his legacy #akleg #MLKDay2024

Thanks to the 1000s of educators across Alaska who have worked tirelessly for months. I know firsthand how stressful your jobs are in the face of criticism from those who don’t understand the difficulties of your mission. You’re doing a great job. Alaskans appreciate you! #akleg

Head out to Ester and enjoy some great folk music under the 🌞 (tip: bring sun screen as the sun will be out the entire 11 hours!)

Our schools need permanent, predictable, and inflation adjusted funding. We owe it to our communities and our families. I will always be a champion for education and I will continue to fight for our students, our families, and our schools every chance I get! #akelect #akleg

Lowering energy costs is a top priority of mine. It is getting to be very tough for many families to even keep their homes warm in winter. I will continue to fight for an “all of the above” solution to bring reliable and affordable energy to Fairbanks. #akelect
