Matt’s Infrastructure Plan

Energy

Alaska Marine Highway System

Imagine an Alaska where every family enjoys real prosperity: high-paying jobs, thriving communities, and a future so strong our children stay to build it instead of leaving to find opportunity elsewhere.

That Alaska is within reach. The proven path rests on two pillars: abundant and affordable energy, which is the fertile soil from which all great economies grow. Energy powers homes, fuels factories, and ignites industries. Without it, prosperity withers. Alaska possesses an unmatched abundance including our vast oil and gas reserves, world-class geothermal and hydroelectric potential, critical minerals, and emerging technologies. We hold the resources to become an energy powerhouse and our job is to harness them fully.

Modern infrastructure is the essential building block that turns energy into lasting wealth. Efficient roads, rails, bridges, tunnels, waterway shipping, and pipelines connects resources to markets, people to opportunity, and raw potential to real paychecks. History shows thriving economies radiate outward from strong transportation networks. In Alaska, these links are not optional, they are the vital arteries our state has long needed.

Our goal is to deliver both cheap, reliable energy and the infrastructure to move everything else, propelling Alaska to top-tier prosperity within 7-10 years, resulting in booming wages, vibrant towns, and a secure future for the next generation. This is not wishful thinking. It is the exact roadmap every successful economy has followed. It requires discipline, determination, and unwavering focus.

In my administration, energy and infrastructure will be ‘priority number one’, free from distractions and delays. We will lead with complete transparency and straight talk, keeping every Alaskan informed, engaged, and united behind this vision. The road is clear. Let’s build Alaska’s brightest days together.

I’m Matt Heilala, candidate for Governor.
