Mary Peltola announces run for Senate in recruiting win for Democrats

Former Democratic Alaska Rep. Mary Peltola is running for the U.S. Senate in her home state, launching a comeback bid to return to Washington just over a year after her loss to Rep. Nick Begich (R-AK).

Peltola announced her entry into the 2026 midterm election race on Monday morning, telling Alaskans she is running “to fight for fish, family, and freedom.”

“My agenda for Alaska will always be fish, family, and freedom, but our future also depends on fixing the rigged system in D.C. that’s shutting down Alaska, while politicians feather their own nest. D.C. people will be p***ed that I’m focusing on their self-dealing and sharing what I’ve seen firsthand,” Peltola said in her announcement video.

“They’re going to complain that I’m proposing term limits, but it’s time. Systemic change is the only way to bring down grocery costs, save our fisheries, lower energy prices, and build new housing Alaskans can afford,” Peltola said. “It’s about time Alaskans teach the rest of the country what Alaska first, and really America first, looks like.”

This is a breaking news story and will be updated.
