What — Alaska Division of Elections AL GROSS KNOWS THAT WHEN AMERICA ASKS, RURAL ALASKANS HAVE ALWAYS ANSWERED THE CALL Alaska has paid more than its fair share in defending our country, and our veterans deserve everything that has been promised them. But when it comes to providing services, efforts have fallen short. Dr. Al Gross will go to the U.S. Senate and fight for veterans to ensure they are given what they are owed, whether they live in Anchorage or in remote villages. And today especially, as brave young men and women return from overseas deployments, we owe them not just our gratitude, but also the enhanced services needed to treat PTSD and to help them find employment through educational opportunities and vocational training when they return.
