Thank you for your hospitality, Gustavus! I appreciate you letting me stop by and share my vision for a Southeast with more trade schools and economic opportunity, more tourism and more much-needed housing. Let’s build a future that works for all of us!

Hard work, grit, and local expertise. That’s how we build things in Alaska, and the craftsmen at Small Town Custom Guitars in Gustavus are no different. Homegrown businesses are the lifeblood of the Alaskan economy, and as governor I’ll be a champion for them.

In Kake, I saw first-hand the impact of my work on the Reads Act. With their Pre-K grant, Kake is building high-quality early education programs that will be rolled into our school funding formula. From Pre-K to UA, I’m committed to building the education system Alaska deserves.

What a joy to spend time in Haines and Klukwan with everyone who came out to our listening tour! Thank you for showing up and speaking out! Together, we can strengthen the ferry system, increase tourism and make sure young Alaskans can afford to stay in the communities they love.

Thanks to Ketchikan and Saxman for kicking off my Southeast tour with me! You spoke up about what matters: Better schools, affordable housing, reliable ferries and opportunities that keep our young people in Alaska. Change starts by listening, and that’s exactly what we're here to do.

I’m grateful to have the support of so many great friends as I begin my campaign to be Alaska's next governor. Thank you especially to @chairericcroft.bsky.social of @thealaskadems.bsky.social for generously hosting our first fundraiser as we embark on this campaign for a better future for Alaska!

Spoke at the No Kings Rally today. Defending democracy is the job of every Governor. It’s not being a Democrat or a Republican. It’s about being an Alaskan.

Today we observe Alaska Day - celebrating the resiliency and promise of statehood. Reflecting on our past as we plan for our future!

So glad to have run into my dear friend Emil Notti at AFN today. 92 young and still going strong!
I'll be back tomorrow and look forward to seeing many more friends and colleagues.

In town for AFN? Join us at The Kobuk this Thursday, Friday, and Saturday to have your voice heard by Gubernatorial candidate, Tom Begich. We will have hot chocolate and goodies for you as well as a collection point for dry goods for the hard hit areas of Western Alaska.

Please join us in donating dry goods for Western Alaska disaster relief. If you can't get to Lynden's location, please feel free to get it to my campaign (we can easily be found at AFN Thursday, Friday, and Saturday) or to Click Bishop for Governor.

On the eve of the 59th annual AFN Convention, I’m excited to announce the endorsement of Chuck Degnan. A proud Alaska Native, Degnan served our state admirably as a state rep and as the Bering Strait Coastal Resource Service Manager. Proud to have you on the team, Chuck!

Mine and Sarah’s thoughts are with all our friends in Western and Northwest Alaska today. So glad Governor Dunleavy declared a state of emergency. All Alaskans need to stand together today.

“As Minority Leader in the Senate, Tom knew how to listen, he knew how to lead, and he knew how to get things done.

Those are the skills we need now to secure our future. He’ll fight for a fair share of our resources, better schools, and a fair shake for regular Alaskans. That’s just who he is.”

“I’m excited to support Tom Begich for Governor because he has the vision and determination to pursue new, viable opportunities that strengthen our economy, and the skill and temperament to bring people together to find and implement solutions to our challenges.”
-Thank you Kay!

Multi-week power outages, annual rate increases in excess of 10% or more, and a grid less reliable than 2/3rds of the country. Alaska deserves a reliable, affordable energy plan that works for all of us, whether you live in the Railbelt or our most rural communities (1/3).

“Alaska’s governance is now polarized and broken. Tom Begich is the only one I know who can fix it. Let’s give him the chance to do so, for us all."
- Rick Steiner, Anchorage

Thank you for your support Rick!

As #SuicidePreventionMonth ends, my thoughts are with our veterans, LGBTQ+ youth, and Alaska Native community. The deaths your communities endure are appalling, and I grieve your losses with you. Alaska is facing an epidemic of suicide, it’s time we acted like it.

Thank you for your support Pat!

Let us remember those who lost their lives that day and after, the first responders and heroes who struggled to save others. And let us come together again in a spirit of resolve and resiliency that will build a better world, not tear this one down.

As the Grandson of a UMW leader on Minnesota’s Iron Range and the child of educators who fought for better working conditions for teachers through the AFT and the NEA, I was raised with union values. The American worker made this country great - not any one person. Let’s honor that today!

Honored to have shared the evening with Keynote Egan Dinner speaker, President of the AFL-CIO Joelle Hall. She talked about the importance of a living wage and bipartisan coalitions to the future of Alaska. I emphasized the importance of education, of getting involved, and building a future together

Building Alaska’s Future by Putting Education First. Education is the foundation of a thriving economy. As Governor, I will build on my record of successfully working across party lines and continue bringing people together to put education first, because Alaskans deserve it https://bit.ly/tombegich
