Today’s shooting in Minnesota where federal agents killed a civilian is disgusting, as has been ICE’s conduct for months.
We need an independent investigation free of federal interference and we need to stop funding these murders with our taxpayer money.
We stand with Minneapolis.

The same thing is true everywhere I go in Alaska: COSTS ARE TOO HIGH.
Housing. Healthcare. Fuel. Groceries.
Families are being stretched thin.
As Governor, I’ll focus on affordability and common-sense fiscal solutions that keep more of your hard-earned dollars in your pocket.
