Nick Begich and Mary Peltola are both running for Alaska’s seat in the U.S. House of Representatives.
Republican Begich said he is running because Alaska needs a new generation of leadership. “I think that my experience and my background will help complement the people that we have in that national portfolio of ambassadors, the governor, our two senators, and the house member. I think it’s helpful if one of those folks comes from a substantial private sector background,” he said.
He said Alaska has always offered the potential for generational wealth. “That’s part of the mystique of Alaska. What’s possible? Our state motto ‘North to the Future’, right? That’s our future. It’s our shared future, and as we think about the future of the state, I think it’s really important that we look to the resources that we offer, both in the traditional energy economy and sort of the new energy economy that’s emerging over the next several decades.
Peltola said she would champion women’s reproductive rights, and wants to be part of a Congress that will bring balance to the Supreme Court. “I believe it’s a much more conservative court than we’ve seen in past years, and I think it’s important that we do have balance among the branches of our government.
