Feeling hopeful about the opportunity to increase access to childcare in Anchorage and repurpose some valuable space in a way that continues to benefit the community.

Get out and #vote in your local elections! Change is possible at the local level, IF we all show up to the polls.

Opinion | We Ran the C.D.C.: Kennedy Is Endangering Every American’s Health

“… in 1946, the average life expectancy in the United States was around 66 years. Today, it is more than 78 years… it is public health that has played the biggest role in improving both the length and quality of life in our nation.”

Dunleavy’s Administrative Order 360: A Regulatory Free for All - Inletkeeper Administrative Order 360 directs numerous Alaska state departments to include a “provision for automatic approval if deadlines are not met” in all permits. In plain language: merit, expertise, and pub...

Administrative Order 360 opens a dangerous loophole: if agencies miss deadlines, permits get approved automatically.

That means harmful projects could slip through without review—putting Alaskans, salmon & wildlife at risk. 🌊🐟

-Overall life expectancy was 70 years; it’s about 77 years now.

Many of you know this, but RFK Jr. doesn’t actually care about your health. He simply despises people who are overweight, poor, sick, or living with disabilities. He views it as weakness. End of.

RFK Jr. likes to wax nostalgic about how “healthy” America was in the 1960’s. He bases this on one datapoint, the prevalence of obesity.

But let’s dip our toes into reality. In 1965:

-42% of American adults smoked; it’s 11% now.

-The infant morality rate was 24.7/1000; it’s 5.6/1000 now

Thought experiment: Could one hide from ICE by dressing and masking like them? And could we all provide additional confusion by dressing like ICE? Or would it increase danger for those already in peril?
