The Alaska Democrat Party just released their new platform.
Does Democrat Mary Peltola agree with her party’s positions and “shared values… that are the foundation” of the Alaska Democrats?
Locking Down Alaska’s Economy and Energy Production
- “The State of Alaska must make…transitioning away from fossil fuels, top priorities when allocating resources…”
- “We support an orderly transition away from fossil fuels, with a transition to renewable energy sources for in-state use as soon as possible”
- “[M]aking the commitment to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050…pausing all pending export permits for liquified natural gas (LNG)…”
- “Oppose oil and gas exploration, leasing, and development…”
- “We support carbon pricing…The price must steadily increase to the point that demand for fossil fuels is strongly suppressed.”
Anti-Voter ID
- “We oppose… Federal mandates requiring states to demand documentary proof of citizenship—such as passports or birth certificates—from every voter at registration or before casting a ballot…”
- “We oppose…Nationwide requirements that voters present strict government-issued photo ID every time they vote in person or by mail, or submit copies of ID with absentee ballot applications and envelopes..”
Soft-on-Crime Agenda — Including Eliminating Cash Bail
- “…[B]ail schedules should not be so onerous as to coerce guilty pleas or extend jail time for defendants who do not have the ability to pay.”
- “Legislation that would remove current bars to voting for incarcerated citizens.”
Allowing Men in Women’s Sports and Children Receiving Permanent Genital Mutilation Surgeries
- “We support the right of transgender youth to fully participate in all school sports and other activities.”
- “Access to evidence-based, gender-affirming care for transgender and nonbinary people, including youth, in accordance with professional standards of care, without political interference.”
Amnesty for Illegals
- “Comprehensive federal immigration reform that provides an achievable, humane pathway to citizenship for undocumented people, keeps families together, and improves and modernizes legal immigration systems.”
“Mary Peltola is a Democrat and Alaska Last. Endorsing her own party’s anti-Alaska manifesto shouldn’t be hard,” said NRSC Regional Press Secretary Nick Puglia.
