East Anchorage Matters with Rep. Andrew Gray
Alaska State Representative Andrew Gray offers a weekly broadcast aimed at his constituents in the UMED district of Anchorage. The goal is to share important news from the Capitol, but also to offer frank conversations with Alaskans of interest, including many who work in the legislature.
East Anchorage Matters with Rep. Andrew Gray
State Rep. Will Stapp (R - Fairbanks): on war and loss
Republican Will Stapp was born and raised in a suburb of Seattle; he decided at an early age that he wanted to serve in the military and joined the Army right after high school. He was first stationed at Fort Wainwright but deployed almost immediately to Iraq, and as you will hear, was in the midst of bloody battles from the moment he landed in Falluja, where he received a Purple Heart. We will discuss how he earned that award as well as his decision to make his permanent home in Fairbanks with his wife and their two young daughters.
And the update for Monday, March 6, 2023: my first meet-&-greet, the Anchorage delegation's town hall, and what's been happening on judiciary committee.
