Our Statement:

From Ketchikan to Kotzebue, Alaskans are being priced out, pushed out, and left without options for housing in the communities where they want to live.

The individuals and organizations who sign our statement agree on a simple message: Alaska has a housing shortage, there’s more that our policymakers can do to solve it, and we want them to take action in 2027.

The housing shortage looks different in each community. It’s a complex challenge, but we know that there are policies and programs working across Alaska, and across the country, that show us what is possible. It’s up to our policymakers to coordinate and scale these opportunities.

Housing is the foundation upon which every other opportunity in Alaska is built. Together, we can build housing that sustains our unique way of life.
