Anchorage Unitarian Universalist Fellowship Forum Podcasts
The Speaker's Forum is held each Sunday morning from 9:00 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. Forum topics often address and spur dialogue about a current local community, statewide, national or international issue. Some forums feature a local author and the topic of the author's new book, or a representative of a local non-governmental organization (NGO) describing the organization’s work, programs, and accomplishments.

New Revenue for a New Alaska - AK State Rep. Alyse Galvin (with slides)
Alyse Galvin represents House District 14—Spenard, Rogers Park, and Midtown—in the 33rd Alaska Legislature, where she serves on the House Finance Committee. Alyse was elected to the state House of Representatives as an independent. Also, she was an independent candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in 2018 and 2020, running with the endorsement of the Alaska Democratic Party against Rep. Don Young in his final two races. Alyse is a third-generation Alaskan who grew up in a family that battled addiction, mental illness, and abuse, but she broke that cycle. She served Alaska under Republican and Independent governors. She led a non-partisan grassroots movement to restore education funding and improve our public schools, helping grow that organization from 40 to 4,000 strong. She has owned two small businesses and was a manager of a major hotel in Anchorage. Alyse is a graduate of the University of California San Diego. She and her husband Pat are proud parents of four.
