Sullivan Votes Against the Iditarod — Twice

As Alaskans gathered for the Iditarod, we celebrated a tradition that defines our state — one built on endurance, community, and deep ties to the land.

But while Alaskans showed up to honor the Last Great Race, Dan Sullivan voted against it.

Twice.

Sullivan opposed more than $8 million in funding to improve safety and maintenance along the Iditarod Trail — support that would benefit mushers, sled dogs, and communities along the route. Even members of his own party backed the funding.

Time and again, Sullivan has put his own agenda ahead of Alaska.

Alaskans deserve leaders who will stand up for our traditions — and the communities that keep them alive.

New Leadership Is Stepping Up Across Alaska

Alaska is at a turning point — and across the state, new leaders are stepping up to meet the moment.

Matt Schultz is part of a growing movement of candidates focused on listening to communities, strengthening local economies, and putting Alaskans first.

At the statewide level, Tom Begich, Matt Claman, and Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins are running for governor with a shared commitment to tackling the real challenges Alaskans face — from rising costs to underfunded schools and aging infrastructure.

Together, these campaigns reflect a broader shift. Voters are demanding leadership that’s grounded in Alaska’s reality — focused on opportunity, stability, and a future people can build here at home.

From local races to the governor’s office, this is a moment to build the leadership Alaska deserves.

Outmigration Is Reshaping Alaska’s Future

Alaska has now seen 13 straight years of net outmigration — and increasingly, it’s young people who are leaving.

They’re not leaving by choice. They’re leaving because they’re struggling to find opportunity, stability, and a future they can build here at home.

Too many young Alaskans feel like they have to leave to find good jobs, affordable housing, and strong schools for their future families.

That’s not inevitable — it’s the result of political choices.

If we want Alaska to thrive, we need to invest in what keeps people here: strong schools, reliable infrastructure, affordable health care, and an economy that works for working families.

Because Alaska should be a place where the next generation can stay, build, and succeed.
