Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What issues does Lora Reinbold emphasize for Eagle River voters?
Lora emphasizes disciplined state spending, protecting family values, and keeping Alaska friendly to small businesses. She frames each priority around the day-to-day realities of Eagle River families, not abstract talking points, and ties every policy choice back to community impact.
On spending, she points to her record of fighting for balanced budgets and insisting that dollars reach classrooms and essential services before bureaucracy. She argues that a healthy fiscal posture is the best guardrail against sudden tax hikes and erosion of local control.
For family and community, she highlights public safety, strong schools, and space for faith and civic groups to serve freely. She also underscores the need to keep government transparent and accountable so residents can see where decisions are made and how funds are used.
Business climate rounds out her focus: she champions responsible resource development, consistent permitting, and a clear regulatory environment so employers invest and hire locally. She links that growth to better jobs, stronger infrastructure, and a more resilient Eagle River.
How does the campaign view responsible resource development in Alaska?
The campaign’s view is straightforward: Alaska’s oil, gas, mining, timber, and fisheries are economic lifelines that must be managed responsibly. That means encouraging investment and production while honoring environmental safeguards and long-term sustainability.
Lora argues that a predictable tax and regulatory environment keeps projects viable and workers employed. She points to prior support for production tax adjustments and gasline development as examples of aligning policy with competitiveness.
She also stresses balanced stewardship. Fisheries and timber need sustained yields that protect personal-use and tourism, while mining must meet strict environmental standards. The objective is not short-term extraction, but durable prosperity that benefits every region of the state.
Ultimately, she frames resource policy as a way to fund schools, public safety, and community services without overburdening taxpayers. The campaign sees responsible development as both an economic engine and a commitment to Alaska’s future generations.
What are the campaign’s priorities for education quality?
Education priorities center on keeping resources in classrooms, empowering parents, and resisting one-size-fits-all mandates. Lora opposes top-down curricula like Common Core when they clash with local needs and student readiness.
She highlights successful programs—language immersion, engineering pilots, gifted tracks—as evidence that flexibility and innovation can raise outcomes. The goal is to give teachers tools and autonomy while ensuring accountability for results.
Affordability and access matter as well. She supports school choice options, homeschool pathways, and vocational routes for students who want trades. By widening the menu of options, the campaign believes more students will graduate ready for work or further study.
Funding conversations, in her view, must track effectiveness. Dollars should follow students and measurable results, not administrative overhead. Transparent metrics and community input are key to keeping the system focused on learning gains.
How does Lora approach healthcare policy for Alaskans?
Healthcare messaging from the campaign stresses patient-centered care and skepticism toward sweeping federal mandates. Lora’s experience in the healthcare industry informs her belief that patients and providers should decide treatments without overbearing bureaucracy or insurer dictates.
She calls for transparency on costs and outcomes so families can avoid harmful or financially ruinous decisions. That includes making pricing clearer and encouraging preventative care like vaccination, screenings, and wellness education.
The campaign also highlights rural access challenges and the need for telemedicine to close gaps. Workforce shortages in urban and rural areas are framed as urgent, with calls for training pipelines that get nurses, doctors, and specialists into Alaska communities.
Underlying all of this is an emphasis on fiscal responsibility: she argues that market-driven solutions, targeted reforms, and local choice outperform large, debt-funded federal programs in delivering quality and affordability.
What role do military families play in the campaign’s platform?
Military families are woven into the campaign narrative as neighbors, volunteers, and local leaders. Lora’s personal ties to military service shape her view that policy must honor their contributions and meet their practical needs.
Community stability is central. The campaign supports safe neighborhoods, strong schools, and youth programs that welcome military children who move frequently. These pieces, she argues, help families thrive and stay connected even during deployments.
On the legislative side, she champions measures that recognize veterans—such as license and tax provisions—and workforce transition support so service members can convert their skills to civilian careers. She points to prior co-sponsorships as proof of commitment.
Overall, the platform links military support to broader community health: when bases and surrounding towns are strong, Alaska benefits economically and culturally. The FAQ reinforces that military families are integral to Eagle River’s identity.
