The Anchorage Assembly has chosen Eagle River resident Robin Dern to replace Jamie Allard. Dern said she was motivated to apply for the seat when she saw that all of the other candidates were men.
Eagle River resident Robin Dern was chosen by the Anchorage Assembly to fill the vacant seat on the body left by Jamie Allard on Jan 19, 2023. Allard was sworn in to the Alaska Legislature earlier in the week.
“While I felt the bench was deep with experience, I noticed that there were no women, and I really did want to represent that voice,” Dern said. “There were many women in Eagle River who were mentors to me, who really set an example for me in terms of public policy.” “I look to take the lead of the fellow Assembly members and to gauge the situation based upon the work they’ve been doing up until now,” she said.Anchorage city employees accuse Mayor Bronson’s office of monitoring security footage to see who’s talking to ombudsman
