Samuel Alito: We won't overturn Obergefell because it's engendered reliance interests.

Jan Crawford: Well, many people had organized their lives around Roe v. Wade.

Alito: No, they didn't. Women merely had an "abstract" interest in "ideas about the kind of society that they were going to live in."

Susan Collins cannot be trusted with voting on our next Supreme Court Justice.

She voted for the three justices that overturned Roe v. Wade. And she's going to do the same damn thing if Alito retires unless we win this election.

Dan Sullivan's votes for tariffs didn't help Alaska, but they sure helped his brother's chemical company, where he owns up to $5 million in stock.

This is the exact kind of corruption that Alaskans are sick and tired of.
