Told I’m the first candidate to visit Kotzebue? Not sure. But Quyanaqpuk to the new Mayor, Council members, City Manager, School Superintendent, NANA & Maniilaq leadership for taking time with me! https://t.co/lbzDqmuxcb

School closures are latest chapter in the worst education crisis in state history. Dunleavy’s approach? 1. Push $1/4 billion in school cuts. 2. Block a 2 year funding increase. 3. Let schools fall over $120 million behind inflation. #NotAPlan https://t.co/ZNnud1fDZU… 1/2

2/2 4. His vetos of school bond reimbursement. A real plan would be to support students & teachers, keep funding up with costs, and return the pension teachers (and police and others) can get in every other state. #akelect https://t.co/HU8wpjlZyw

School closures. Latest chapter in Wk the worst education crisis in state history. Dunleavy’s approach? 1. Push $1/4 billion in school cuts. 2. Block a 2 year funding increase. 3. Let schools fall over $120 million behind inflation. #NotAPlan https://t.co/OgfOpCRSla 1/2

#Akgov has it backwards. We’re in the worst #education crisis in state history. That cheats the next generation. So the state can give $1.2 billion in unjustified subsidies to the wealthiest corporations in the world. Jess & I are running to fix this. https://t.co/HU8wpjlZyw

“Gara, who said Dunleavy has missed more than 10 debates or forums… said the governor doesn’t want to talk about policies that include creating the “worst education & mental health crisis in Alaska history.” https://t.co/UWZfnudzT5

@ak_elections People just want to know if the state will count their votes. Maybe you intended to be clear. But this both says that ballots will be delivered & that the division has not yet committed to count ballots with insufficient postage. This was the State’s Mistake 1/2 QT @ak_elections: Attn: USPS will still deliver absentee ballots to the division with insufficient postage. The division of election… https://t.co/8dP6NLjUeN)

2/2 Maybe DOE intended to say this. But the state should pay the additional postage & count people’s votes. The ballot envelope says only a 1st class stamp is needed. Then DOE says more is needed. Pls confirm @ak_elections will pay 4 short postage & ballots will count. Thank you.

Reasons why #Akgov skipped the Chamber debate. 1. Tried cutting over $1/4 billion from public schools. 2. Created worst education & mental health crisis in Alaska history. 3. Lied about the PFD. Voted to sustain 2016s PFD veto. Averaged a $1230 PFD B4 the Russian war #akelect

Accurate. I’d add, #Dunleavy’s never believed in the #PFD except in election years. -Voted to block a veto override of the $1000 PFD in 2016. -PFD was $1230 in 2019-2021. 3. Never offered how to pay for his false promises. #FakePromises QT @AKVOTES2022: @Gara_4_Governor https://t.co/Vq5N0cWv40)

Great morning talking with foster youth at @FFCAlaska’s retreat. And some of the people there to help make sure they have their equal right to succeed in life. And the moose everyone decided was more exciting than my talk. Help at https://t.co/bjFWeWk8Qx! https://t.co/cjN2RTSle2

Tonight. #Homer governors forum. At least with the candidates who have ideas worth sharing. The Gov announced this summer that he also planned skipping this one. #alelect

A month ago #akgov said he’d also duck today’s Juneau debate. I think the honest thing is to show up, listen & share plans for better schools, and a state with good jobs. And why the #RightToChoose & clean #Renewable energy matter. #ThankYou Juneau! https://t.co/KRCx44S51A
