✅AK’s First People getting free admission doesn’t mean there’s “less” museum for others. It’s not a pie. ✅There’s an entire floor dedicated to Native art & artifacts, a huge contribution to the collection. ✅More people accessing the museum always=a good thing. #akleg #akgov

For Anchorage mayor, our choice could not by more clear: a competent nonpartisan executive, like Suzanne LaFrance, or a fire breathing radical who never met a culture war he didn’t love. @mayor_bronson claims his opponent is too “woke” & that he’s “normal” #akleg #ancgov 1/

Always remember the way @GovDunleavy punishes strong, competent women for doing their jobs well, but covers up for and protects abusive and incompetent men who are his cronies. #akleg #akgov #akelect

Kyle Hopkins: You released Rodell's personnel file but refuse to release Kevin Clarkson's? Dunleavy says the laws say they can, suggesting anyone who doesn't know that is underhanded. Hopkins tries a follow up. Dunleavy: How many questions is he gonna get? They cut him off.

@MayorBronson ⁩ took homeless (incl children & disabled) to this campground & abandoned them. Now—bear attacks, thefts, injuries, & deaths are resulting. Mayor, enough excuses. Grow up & help solve the problem. You wanted the job? Do the job. #akleg

@MustReadAlaska provides a platform to stoke hate and rhetoric that *most* Alaskans find unacceptable. @GovDunleavy & others can whisper to a hate-fueled crowd while presenting a "normal" face to most Alaskans. #akleg 7/16

Make no mistake @GovDunleavy has the power to make a difference here—the @adndotcom has had a story up for 18 hours. From the #akgov Comms shop? Crickets and campaign stunts. Why isn’t he putting out information and resources? Why are Alaskans forced to follow this via SM? #akleg

Some will have the impulse to say “but, but…” and reference some other policy difference they have with them—but for just a moment can we enjoy as Alaskans that we have two leaders like @repdonyoung and @lisamurkowski with the courage to put truth before party? #akleg #akelect

Alaska’s @repdonyoung also weighs in against GOP’s characterization of Jan. 6 “violence and “destruction” as “legitimate protest.”

How about when we create policy, we think about the next generation, instead of the next election? If we just do that, then all of these intractable problems—PFD, education funding, ferries, infrastructure, taxes, healthcare costs—can actually be solved. #akleg #akgov #akelect

You’re only empowering parents who agree with you—but taking away options from all others. Here’s a policy idea for you: Try to put *at least* as much energy into feeding & educating Alaskans as you all do obsessing about which bathroom kids use & what clothes they wear. #akleg

Why you were and are terrible at policy. You think statute empowering parents to exercise inherent rights is government overreach.

The date of March 31 for #TransgenderDayofVisibility was selected years ago. This year it just happens to fall on Easter. (Sometimes the World Series falls on Yom Kippur!) You can be religiously observant & also support the rights of marginalized people. I hope this helps!🌈

#FathersDay generates complicated emotions for me. The fact that my “father” utterly failed in that role is increasingly outweighed by the incredible joy I get from being Dad to this wonderful family. Sending hope to those still searching for the balance I’ve found. ⁦

Everything you need to know about @GovDunleavy ‘s ethics: 1) illegally demanded 100s of dedicated, nonpartisan state employees resign & swear a loyalty oath; 2) but defended & retained an AG for months after he harassed a woman who worked inside the Gov’s office. #akleg #akgov

Can #akleg spend MORE time working on: —stopping outmigration; —lowering energy costs; —making housing affordable; and —actually funding education? …and LESS time worrying about what pronouns people are using?

@WildAKGirl TL;DR I want LGBTQ Alaskans (especially LGBTQ kids) to live, not contemplate suicide. I want them to thrive & be free from harassment. These fake legislative debates hurt them, & the public should demand better from elected officials. There are plenty of real problems. #akleg
