Episode 3 Mead Treadwell

Alaska Energy Dudes and Divas

Thank you for tuning into the Alaska Energy Dudes and Divas podcast. This episode I visited with Mead Treadwell who is running for Governor. Mead shares his vision for Alaska, and a fascinating, and unknown story about Alaska’s economy crash of 1986. http://www.treadwellalaska.com/ Mead arrived to Alaska to work for Wally Hickel as an intern. He later went on to work in the Hickel Administration when Governor Wally Hickel was elected Governor. Mead is the former Chair of the U.S. Arctic Research Commission serving from 2006 to 2010. He was elected Lt. Governor of the GREAT state of Alaska in 2010 where he worked for policies to move Alaska forward. Alaska is a crossroad, and our next Governor will be making big decisions, and filling up the Trans Alaska Pipeline (TAPS) must be a top priority. Mead shares his plans on filling up TAPS, keeping our promises, and cutting state spending.
