“Our Alaska, Our Future”
I'm running because Alaska needs leadership that brings people together.
-
I have spent more than 20 years building a reputation as someone who works with everyone.
-
I'm a consensus builder, not a divider.
-
I listen before I make decisions because good ideas can come from anyone.
-
I want an administration that solves problems instead of creating political fights.
-
The most important job of a governor is building a team of experienced people who know how to get things done.
-
Above all, I want to restore hope that Alaska's best days are ahead of us.

ENERGY
The Problem
Alaskans are paying some of the highest energy costs in America.
-
Families are paying hundreds of dollars every month just to keep the lights on.
-
In Interior Alaska, many families spend around $1,000 or more every month on electricity and heating.
-
That's money they can't spend on groceries, their kids, or saving for the future.
My Plan
I want to cut energy bills in half. To do that, we will:
-
Complete the Railbelt transmission upgrades.
-
Build large-scale renewable hydroelectric power.
-
Maximize the value of Alaska's natural gas.
-
Put Alaska on a long-term path to affordable, reliable energy.
Why It Matters
Affordable energy means:
-
More money in your pocket every month.
-
Lower costs for businesses.
-
More jobs.
-
A stronger economy.
-
Young families can afford to stay in Alaska.
EDUCATION
The Problem
Parents, teachers, and students need certainty—not annual funding battles.
Schools shouldn't have to choose between fixing a leaking roof and educating kids.
My Plan
-
Provide stable, predictable education funding.
-
Improve student outcomes.
-
Invest more in Career & Technical Education, apprenticeships, and workforce training.
-
Support early learning.
-
Listen to teachers, parents, and students.
Why It Matters
Not every student follows the same path.
Some will attend college.
Many will pursue apprenticeships, trades, or technical careers.
Every student deserves an opportunity to succeed.
My wife, Darlene, spent her career as a kindergarten teacher. Education isn't just policy in our family—it's personal.
ECONOMY
The Problem
High energy costs are holding Alaska back.
Businesses pay too much to operate, making it harder to grow, hire, and compete.
My Plan
The key to growing Alaska's economy is affordable energy.
If businesses pay less for power:
-
They hire more workers.
-
They expand.
-
New businesses move here.
-
More careers are created for young Alaskans.
Why It Matters
I want our young people to graduate and find careers here, not feel like they have to leave Alaska to build a future.
FISHERIES
The Goal
I want to see fish in every net and fish on every family's table.
My Approach
-
Invest more in fisheries science.
-
Respect both scientific data and traditional knowledge.
-
Listen to every user group.
-
Bring people together instead of picking winners and losers.
-
Ensure fisheries decisions are balanced, transparent, and sustainable.
I also support separating Fish & Game into two cabinet-level commissioners so each resource gets the attention it deserves.
Why It Matters
Fishing isn't just an industry. It's our culture, our economy, our food security, and our way of life. People trust me because I've lived these issues—from subsistence to commercial fishing—and I'll make decisions by listening first.
Alaska Needs Leadership Now
Alaska needs to change its direction. Statewide, we see families leaving due to rising energy costs, limited opportunities, and uncertainty about the future.

To change course from the current outmigration trend, Alaska must ensure our kids and grandkids have reasons to stay—strong schools, good jobs, and wages to support their families.
