AFP Action Releases Statement Following Sen. Sullivan’s Debate Victory

WASILLA, AK — Alaskans saw a clear choice at last night’s Senate debate: Senator Dan Sullivan touting his record of putting Alaska first in the Senate, versus an inexperienced Democratic opponent reading scripted responses from cue cards.

Sullivan proved he is the champion that Alaskans need in the Senate to drive investment in the Last Frontier and cut the red tape favored by Mary Peltola that’s holding the Alaskan economy hostage. He is fighting to end the Democrats’ “Last Frontier Lockup” of Alaska’s natural resources. 

From fisheries to health care and lowering the cost of living, Peltola’s only answer in the debate was more federal intervention in Alaskans’ everyday lives.

AFP Action Senior Advisor Kevin Greene gave the following statement: 

“Dan Sullivan is the only choice for Alaskans who want to supercharge our economy and put the Democrats’ disastrous high-tax, low-energy agenda behind us. 

“Peltola’s talking points can’t hide her past ineffectiveness in Congress and party-line voting record. When push comes to shove, Peltola will always put her radical party’s interests over the needs of hardworking Alaskans.” 

Kevin Greene emphasized to The Wall Street Journal this week that Alaskans are waking up to the negativities of not having Sen. Sullivan fighting for them in the Senate.

AFP Action’s Alaska team has canvassed non-stop since its endorsement in June and is on pace to reach tens of thousands more voters in the weeks remaining before Election Day.

The ads highlight Sullivan’s opponent Mary Peltola’s history of voting in lockstep with her party, at a time when Democrats are shifting toward dangerous socialist policies that threaten the Alaska way of life. Dan Sullivan will say no to Washington control of Alaska, keep cutting taxes, and unleash Alaskan energy. 

“Dan Sullivan has a vision of government that trusts free Alaskans to make choices for themselves,” AFP Action senior adviser Kevin Greene told The Post.

AFP Action Endorses Roger Marshall for U.S. Senate

TOPEKA, KS – Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) today endorsed U.S. Senator Roger Marshall for reelection.

Elizabeth Patton, AFP Action senior advisor, gave the following statement: 

“Roger Marshall is a fiscal hawk who voted to stop the largest tax increase in American history, ensuring that Kansas families kept more of their hard-earned money. 

“As the threat of socialism continues to rise in Kansas and across the nation, we cannot trust Adam Hamilton to protect our liberties and the Kansas way of life. Roger Marshall will be a bulwark against the dangerous, DSA-driven ideas infecting the Democratic Party.

“Throughout his tenure in the U.S. House and Senate, Marshall has been a consistent leader on key legislation to expand access to healthcare for Kansans, protect small businesses, and hold the administrative state accountable to the people. His vote on the historic Working Families Tax Cuts Act saved Kansas families thousands of dollars in taxes, helping to reignite the American Dream in the Sunflower State.”
