2020 AK Senatorial race: on Jobs


Al Gross: Raise the minimum wage; defend collective bargaining rights

I'll be an advocate for our students and labor force and for creating good-paying jobs here in Alaska. That starts by raising the minimum wage and defending collective bargaining rights for our workers and unions.

Al Gross: First political campaign in Alaska to unionize

A handful of campaigns are unionizing with a promise of better pay and insurance for campaign workers. That trend landed in Alaska on Labor Day when Al Gross announced that his campaign would also be unionizing. Gross says his campaign will be the first unionized campaign in Alaska when it unionizes with the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades. "As we grow our economy into the future, Alaska must treat its workers with fairness and respect all along the way," he said.
