Juneau Empire: Senate candidate thinks a public health option will attract jobs

The ongoing pandemic has exposed how dependent Alaska is on the resource industry and tourism, U.S. Senate candidate Dr. Al Gross told the Empire in an interview recently, and he hopes his leadership could diversify the economy.

“I have a vision for Alaska’s future, an economic plan, a vision to bring jobs and opportunity,” Gross said. “We need to level the playing field and find a way to invite other businesses.”
