Mary Peltola

Democratic Party (D)
U.S. Senator · Alaska, United States of America · 2026
PurposeMary Peltola, the former U.S. Representative for Alaska, is challenging Republican incumbent Dan Sullivan for the Senate seat on a platform of affordability, fisheries protection, and congressional ethics reform.

Economy
On the economy, Peltola's campaign says "Alaskans are being crushed by skyrocketing costs," and proposes a federal income-tax cut for residents earning under roughly $92,000 a year, financed by higher taxes on top earners, alongside a ban on price gouging and restrictions on out-of-state corporate purchases of Alaska housing.

Agriculture/Food
On fisheries, she blames out-of-state factory trawlers for depleting stocks and squeezing subsistence and commercial fishing communities, framing the fight as defending "our Alaska way of life," and calls for a ban on factory bottom-trawling, fully funded stock assessments, and guaranteed tribal seats on fishery management councils.

Infrastructure
On energy, she supports refining more Alaska oil in-state to lower fuel costs and create local jobs, paired with federal permitting reform and restored tax credits for wind, solar, and hydropower projects.

Governance
She backs a 12-year congressional term limit, a ban on members trading stocks, mandatory blind trusts, and a constitutional amendment to reverse Citizens United, arguing federal officials "should be held to the highest ethical standards."
