Kincaid for Congress – Washington’s 1st District

In parts of Alaska a gallon of milk costs over $10. A dozen eggs can cost $15. No American should live like this. Alaska Has Been Left Behind Imagine paying twice sometimes three times what the rest of the country pays for the most basic essentials. A gallon of milk for $10. A loaf of bread for $8. Heating fuel that costs a family their entire paycheck. This is not some distant foreign hardship. This is daily life for hundreds of thousands of American citizens living in Alaska. The reason is simple and fixable. Alaska is cut off. No road, no rail, no affordable freight corridor connects it to the rest of the nation. Everything that arrives in Alaska food, medicine, building supplies, clothing and fuel. Must be flown or shipped across thousands of miles of ocean.

Trade Policy · Affordability · Consumer Rights May 30, 2026 Congress wants to ban Chinese cars from American roads. The proposed Protecting America from Chinese Cars Act would make it official.

They bought a Swedish car that happens to be owned by a Chinese company. The world did not end. National security was not compromised. Life went on. Just days ago  Volvo had to go to the Trump administration and negotiate a special exemption just to...

By Kincaid  ·  Kincaid for Congress, Washington's 1st District There is a saying that is often attributed to Albert Einstein,   "In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity." America is currently facing three converging crises  a housing crisis, a climate and energy crisis, and an emerging electricity demand crisis that most Americans have not yet fully grasped. Washington D.C. has been treating each one as a separate problem, throwing money at symptoms rather than addressing root causes. This campaign believes these three crises are connected  and that solving one intelligently can help solve the others. That requires a different kind of thinking. Not the kind Washington D.C. has been doing. Crisis One: Housing America does not have enough housing. What housing exists is too expensive, too slow to build, and as anyone who has watched a neighborhood burn in California or flood in Florida knows  not durable enough to withstand what the fu...
