Something to think about when Voting. USPS changed postmark rules. Mail may now be postmarked days after you drop it off, based on when it’s processed at a sorting facility not when mailed. This can affect deadlines. Mail early or ask for a hand postmark, certified mail, or proof of mailing.

Interesting: Associated General Contractors is running an ad campaign (I saw an ad on Reddit) to urge Alaskans to ask their legislators to fund the construction match that Dunleavy vetoed last year — www.agcak.org/meetthematch/ #akleg #Alaska

For friends who are fed up and want change: this is how it happens. We speak up. We email and call our elected officials because silence changes nothing. Our political system feels like it’s jumping the shark that’s exactly why using your voice matters now more than ever.

Worried about our young people being sent to war without reason. Oil and minerals aren’t worth risking lives. Leaders must prioritize diplomacy and protect service members.

Bluesky Friends: Only 2 working days left! ACA premium tax credits are about to expire. Premiums could double, especially in rural areas, forcing many to go uninsured. Call Sen. Murkowski (202-224-6665) & Sen. Sullivan (202-224-3004) NOW!

The ACA tax credits help Alaskans actually afford their health insurance. They’re set to expire in just 21 days with no real replacement plan. Cutting people off this fast is irresponsible. If you feel led, please contact our Congressional delegation and urge them to extend the credits. #akleg

First I’ve heard of this, is this something on #akleg is aware of? reclaimthenet.org/alaska-plans...

I watch international news, and our American press have lost credibility because of the news they aren’t reporting. If they are afraid for their jobs why are we watching?

The new Nat’l Security Strategy is alarming for Alaska Native communities. Increased drilling & resource development could threaten our subsistence, lands, and way of life. Our leaders must speak up now this is the moment to protect our people and our future. #akleg

When open for service in fall 2027, the two cables will provide high-speed internet to small communities in Prince William Sound and northern Southeast Alaska. (From @alaskabeacon.com)

The land would come with a caveat, according to the proposed plan. The trail through the park would remain open to public use. (From KHNS - Haines)

#akleg ... Non-compliance has doubled since pre-Dunleavy. Looking forward to something different and hoping Alaskans will reject the many Dunleavy 2.0 candidates.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Do one good deed today and stay kind.

We don’t elect leaders to protect the powerful we elect them to protect the future. And that future belongs to every one of us, not just the ones with money or influence.

War isn’t about glory it’s about staying alive. I don’t want today’s youth to ever know that reality. We owe them a world where diplomacy comes first, where we strengthen relationships with our global neighbors instead of destroying them.

The Power of Voting – Our Voice, Our Future As an Alaskan, I can’t think of a more important moment than now to recognize just how powerful our vote truly is. Voting is not just a civic duty – it is our voice, our representation, and our protection against decisions being made about us without us.

In the richest country, every hungry person regardless of circumstances should get SNAP benefits. Protect SNAP benefits now and in the future.

I want education for all children. Restore Department of Education!

I often reflect on the impact social media has had on our society. It seems to have become all too acceptable to confront people online and say things we might never say to their faces.

I am not shopping from Corporations, which isn’t as easy as it sounds. Any websites that advertise for small business?

Having West Wing moment, why can’t we have people with better ethics and dedication to American people.

How is a vanity Ballroom go to reduce the debt or add value or reduce the cost of living for American citizens.

What can we do to help? Call our delegation.

🌤️ After attending the rally today, I couldn’t help but notice the expressions on my neighbors' faces concern, commitment, unity. Everyone there was driven not by hate, but by a profound love for our country and genuine worry about its direction.

This is a time for American hero’s.

Only the best attended.

Juneau now

Juneau now!

We don’t know [if this affected the forecast], but it seems likely that that had some effect on the model performance." The Trump admin cut Kipnuk resilience grants and hobble agencies like FEMA that help respond, but their cuts to the Weather Service also may have limited advanced warning #akleg

"A week earlier, [Halong] had been a powerful typhoon east of Japan. The jet stream picked it up and carried it to the northeast, which is pretty common, and weather models did a pretty good job in forecasting its track... But as the storm approached Alaska, everything went sideways."

Villages generator is down Who represents this area? #akleg #alaskasky

It’s worth thinking about these almost 50 people who lost their homes last month in an Anchorage fire. Most can’t find housing. What are all the people from Western Alaska going to do? Alaska has a housing crisis. #akleg #akgov

Folks have been focused on the developing disaster in southwest Alaska, but America's farthest-west community is suffering, too: Adak has been without power for two weeks because of problems with the local generator. www.kucb.org/regional/202...

Ah no! www.cnbc.com/amp/2025/10/...

Alaskan people represent approximately 20% of the statewide population if all Alaskan natives voted during the normal turnout this year the Alaska native vote has the ability to influence the direction of our state. We must make this happen!! #akleg

Did anyone else finally receive an email from Congressman Begich? I just got one asking me to sign up for the 2025 app challenge. Kind of funny considering it's been decades since I was in high school or college!

Before catastrophic floods swept through the Alaska Native village of Kipnuk on Sunday, the EPA canceled a $20 million grant intended to protect the community from extreme flooding. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/14/c...

Examples of requested items for the villages: Rechargeable battery packs Generators Medication Water Any food Bedding Mattress Sleeping Bags Pillows Winter clothing General clothing Sanitary products Toiletries Coolers Baby items (diapers/formula)

Our kids with special needs deserve better. 💔 Laying off Dept. of Education staff means fewer supports, fewer opportunities, and more barriers for children who rely on special education. This isn’t saving money it’s hurting lives. #ProtectSpecialEd #OurKidsMatter

Anyone else exhausted but can’t give up. Time for action, please speak up. Please Contact our Alaska delegation and ask them to please act to protect education for children with disabilities.

Prayers for one of my personal hero’s.

Grim flood forecast in Kotzebue right now from the @nws.noaa.gov: forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.ph... It's looking to be worse than last October's flood, which was the worst in living memory for Kotz. #akleg #Alaska

Hey I’m watching Majority Rules. Check it out now on Prime Video!

I’ve learned a lot about living one day at a time since that fateful first flood. I’ve learned that while I can’t control everything, I do have a voice. I’ve learned that even in all the chaos of life, knowledge brings strength, neighbors become friends, and hope keeps us moving forward.

Change happens by listening and then starting a dialogue with the people who are doing something you don't believe is right. -Jane Goodall

What are our hero’s, this movie needs a heroic transition? The nightmare is going on much too long.

If all our military leaders are in VA, who’s leading our troops? Looks kind of suspicious. Right?

Power of the people!!
