“Les has consistently been a staunch supporter of our schools”
School Advocate and Great Alaska Schools Coordinator, Mary Hakala

I've enjoyed working for you in the Legislature, and want to thank you for all your support as we've worked together for a better community. I'd appreciate your help as I work for re-election to my seat in the Alaska State House of Representatives. With your help and support, we can work together to expand opportunity for all Alaskans, regardless of whether they are lucky enough to be born with privilege or into a stable family.

Today too few Alaskans attend college. Alaska's second worst in the nation college aid plan for those who cannot afford a higher education or job training needs to be changed. Income should never be a barrier to someone's success.

And we need to enhance our economy with expanded, smart renewable energy production in urban and rural Alaska, and expand Alaska's natural gas production so the most energy-rich state in the nation doesn't face an energy shortage. I succeeded in co-sponsoring efforts to require that future state buildings and schools be built to cost effective energy efficiency standards, and succeeded in pushing for an additional $50 million to Alaska's Renewable Energy Fund during the 2008 Special Session. I've fought hard for a natural gas policy that will lead to a gas pipeline and more natural gas production.

With your help, I'll keep working for fairness and opportunity for all, and for a vibrant future for this and the next generation.

Thanks,

Gara
