Representative Young,  I agree you have accomplished many positives for Alaska over your 40+ years in Washington.

I disagree with your accomplishments for Alaska while Chairman of the House Transportation Committee.  Alaska is basically without roads or rails connecting the vast majority of the state and this lack of transportation infrastructure impacts the outrageous cost of living in rural Alaska.  It impacts our state revenues from resource development.  It increases the cost in providing state and federal government services in rural Alaska.

The last major road project in Alaska was the Parks and I think that was from your predecessor. 

If we truly have the most powerful congressional delegation in the country, then why do we lack infrastructure?

Why do we lack basic sewer and water services in many of our rural communities?

I hear the great things our politicians accomplish from these same politicians but never why they cannot connect us to the 21st century. 

Call me soon.
