I’m Savannah Fletcher, and I'm running for State Senate.

I am running because I am qualified for the job and passionate about the work. I am a mother, a civil rights attorney, a wife, a friend, and a hard worker. I am Presiding Officer of the Fairbanks North Star Borough Assembly, and I plan to couple that experience in Fairbanks with my experience serving all of Interior Alaska as an attorney for our families and Tribes. I am a pragmatic problem-solver and will put what is best for our community over any political agendas.

My goals in the Senate

1) Support a strong education system.

2) Push for affordable and reliable energy.

3) Support strong fisheries and our community's subsistence lifestyle.

4) Work with a bipartisan majority to solve problems.

Notice a theme? None of this is partisan. It's essential.

My track record while on the Assembly:

• Funded education for Kindergarten aides for the 2022-23 school year.

• Created a program to fund millions of dollars of road service area capital improvements.

• Created a program for 16 and 17 year-olds to serve as poll workers in our local elections.

• Sponsored the ordinance creating a tax exemption for farm buildings.

• Re-imagined our animal control code pertaining to dangerous dogs and created a more nuanced, effective system for handling dangerous or nuisance dogs.

• Funded the scoping of a new recycling facility.

• Passed a bonus for Borough staff to assist in recruitment and retention.

• Funded new positions so the animal shelter will be open over the weekends.

• Worked with FAST Planning to bring a crosswalk to the Tanana Valley Farmers’ Market.
