STATEMENT:Hi, I’m Julie Coulombe. I’ve lived in Alaska for 38 years and raised my family in South Anchorage. It’s been an honor to represent District 11. In my two years in office I fought for more funding for safer school crossings and routes, fire mitigation funding for the Hillside, local parks and stood strong for a commonsense fiscal plan. Here is what I stand for: Limited government & a strong Alaskan economy: My vision is a robust, thriving private sector in Alaska, with individuals creating their own personal wealth and investing in their communities without the burden of complicated government regulations. Responsibly reduced government spending lightens the tax burden and provides more opportunity for the private sector to rise and fill those needs. Responsible Development: I supported responsible resource development and those policies that support growing business in Alaska. A robust resource industry will help provide jobs and create much-needed infrastructure. Education: A quality education offers opportunity, freedom, and choices. It is essential that Alaska provide our youth with the tools they need to be successful adults and responsible citizens. I will work hard for stable funding, parental rights, supporting school choice, vocational education, and educators. Veterans/Military: We are a military family. My husband is a retired Army officer and I have two sons in the Air Force. I strongly support our veterans and service members and believe they should receive the benefits and care they have earned.
