@AlexisforAK When you have hundreds of people in front of you- on the streets, putting out a press release about a solution for less than 10% of the people is a stunt. Or ignorant of the suffering of the majority. Real policy and planning addresses everyone. Stop pandering.

🗣️Plane tickets are not a solution to homelessness.

Mayor Dave Bronson said Anchorage will not use Sullivan Arena as a homeless shelter this winter. To prevent people from freezing to death outside, his administration wants to purchase plane tickets for people who want to travel elsewhere. adn.com/alaska-news/an…

@IvySpohnholz Alaska has such high use of guardians- there’s an underlying problem. When people need help with living in the community so often they get their rights limited by an overused giluardianship program instead of basic quality services and housing.
English

In a letter to the Courts, the Office of Public Advocacy says it can no longer take new guardianship appointments regardless of need. OPA has reached a crisis point with guardian caseloads of 97-100 per person. This is both a humanitarian crisis and a safety issue. #akleg

Y’ALL! @portugaltheman, @LandsickMedia, @ShortellLaw, and I made this video for #HB99 😭
I am so honored to carry this legislation for the nearly 10% of Alaskans who identify as LGBTQ+.
You are loved and we are fighting for you. 🏳️🌈

@MayorBronson tonight praised an ordinance to provide PARENTAL leave - a resource enacted by the prior admin that he scrapped in the first days of his admin, now saying how important PATERNAL leave is for the MOA.

@MaryPeltola And block-granting Medicaid. Bad ideas that somehow continue to be surfaced.

@Climatologist49 My mother needed to hear this. She would be outraged.

@jgruberak @AKroadweed @mayor_bronson There’s rules about meeting with more than 2 assembly members at a time. It’s a good strategy to move things forward to meet with the people who will vote on it ahead of the actual vote. But this dog won’t hunt. They don’t have time to move this priority.

Since the Golden🦁 won't be ready in time for winter shelter, is @mayor_bronson being proactive about turning it into the Alaska Center for Treatment, which it was purchased for?
Now would be the time to put out an RFP. We could have treatment& possibly a Nav center by next fall.

@julia_omalley I pulled over to see this! Gorgeous! This is my favorite winter thing- late risers get to see the sunrise every day!

@KayeSteinsapir You should definitely do a Ted Talk on boobs! This was so insightful- thank you for sharing your experience.
English

Thanks for coming to my #TedTalk about boobs. Although I have pain from the surgery, I already feel 10 times better without the implants. I do think drs need to slow their rolls and ask BC patients to seriously consider the option of staying flat temporarily (or permanently!).

An update! I’m still in lots of pain - like worse than post childbirth. Going home with 4 drains in my sides. But I am going home! I have a medical bed and walker.
There’s a common misconception that you finish breast cancer treatment and are “done.” Nope. A #BreastCancer 🧵.

@TheAmberPicota Oof. Been there! I’m not sure I would change course now. But maybe I would have edited a little more.
