    Assembly Chair Savannah Fletcher

    Between my day job, serving on the Fairbanks North Star Borough Assembly, and raising a toddler — I don’t have a lot of patience for partisan fighting. Especially because our schools are overcrowded, salmon runs are disappearing, and energy costs keep rising.

    As an Assembly Member, I’ve worked with Republicans, Democrats, and Independents to add teachers to overcrowded kindergarten classrooms, fix our roads, and rebuild our workforce.

    Senator Matt Claman

    Matt Claman began representing West Anchorage in the Alaska State Senate in 2023 following the November 2022 election. Prior to service in the Senate, Matt served West Anchorage in the State House of Representatives from 2015 through 2022. During these challenging times, Matt is effectively representing the interests of our community.
