Positions

LiberalConservative

Economy & Taxes

Supports asking high earners and profitable corporations to pay for public services and making corporations responsible for costs when they profit from public infrastructure. Favors policies that shift some tax burden toward wealthy individuals and corporations to fund government services and infrastructure improvements.

Healthcare

Supports creating a standard HMO option available to every American to make healthcare costs simpler and more affordable and seeks to identify Alaska providers to participate in community-health options to lower premiums.

Climate & Energy

Supports development of Alaska’s fossil fuel resources (oil, gas, LNG) and related infrastructure (pipeline, railroad) while also endorsing waste-to-energy and other local renewable/sustainability projects; favors responsible resource development rather than aggressive emissions-only restrictions.
