My name is Jim Arlington. I’ve lived in Eagle River with my wife, Kim, for more than 40 years. We raised our family here, and my children and grandchildren live here too. I am very active in my community, and my Eagle River roots are extensive and deep.

I am running to represent Eagle River in the Alaska Legislature. I believe that Alaska is at a crossroads, and we need to choose the path that leads to long-term fiscal stability, while ensuring that all Alaskans have rewarding jobs, affordable housing and great educations for our children.
