Campaign themes

2012

Bergh's campaign website listed the following issues:[1]

  • A Short-Term Energy Plan Now
Excerpt: "There are numerous options on the table that have been studied, discussed, and hashed over for the past 40+ years. We need to choose a short-term plan that will lower energy costs immediately. "
  • Solutions For Small Business Owners
Excerpt: "Too many small business owners are struggling to keep their businesses afloat during this critical energy crisis. As each business closes in the Interior, more of our neighbors will lose their jobs. North Pole and surrounding areas will become economically and financially depressed."
  • Addressing Seniors' Needs
Excerpt: "There are many senior issues that need to be resolved. Transportation, quality of life, and security of health and welfare. We need to acknowledge these issues and address them through legislation."
  • Keeping Eielson Open
Excerpt: "The military has been an active participant in supporting businesses throughout North Pole and the borough. We need to work hard to make sure that Eielson stays here. If they leave, the value of our homes will decrease and the economy will suffer."
