ANCHORAGE, AK – It’s official: Minnesota Congressman Pete Stauber, the leading voice for American energy independence in Congress, has endorsed Lt. Governor Nancy Dahlstrom for Congress.
Stauber endorsed Dahlstrom all the way from Minnesota because he knows that she will stand up to the out-of-touch anti-jobs activists trying to kneecap America’s energy production. Stauber understands that Alaska’s current congresswoman, Mary Peltola, is a rubber-stamp Democrat who has supported the Biden-Harris administration’s radical anti-American energy agenda.
Mary Peltola stood by and supported Joe Biden as he signed over 60 executive orders targeting Alaska’s energy exploration and production. In May, Stauber stepped in to lead the Alaska’s Right to Produce Act, after Mary Peltola abandoned her own legislation and encouraged fellow Democrats to vote against the pro-Alaska energy bill.
“Alaska and Minnesota have faced an onslaught of anti-mining and anti-energy policies that have done nothing but destroy domestic energy production and drive prices up,” Rep. Pete Stauber said. “It is my honor to stand up for Alaska’s–and America’s–energy future and that’s why I’m joining President Trump and supporting Alaska’s Lt. Governor, Nancy Dahlstrom, to be their sole congressional representative.”
In response to the endorsement, Lt. Governor Nancy Dahlstrom, who was also endorsed by President Donald J. Trump, said:
“I am proud to have Congressman Stauber’s endorsement in this critical race. Congressman Stauber stepped up for Alaska when our own Congresswoman turned her back on our state. I look forward to working with Rep. Stauber and President Trump in Washington to unleash Alaska’s resources and fight for our great state.”
