Tim has been there

I urge my fellow commercial fishing families to vote for Tim Grussendorf for state House. Tim has been a commercial fisherman for 23 years and has lived through the tough fishing seasons. Tim knows what needs to be done to save our lifestyle.

I've fished around Tim on the grounds. He has the dedication, commitment, hard-work ethic, and intuition to change how he did business to adapt to changing market demands to enable him to continue being a commercial fisherman. These are the same qualities that we need in our elected officials.

Only a commercial fisherman who has lived the lifestyle and gone through the tough fishing seasons understands what it takes to be in this line of work.

Let's join the United Fisherman of Alaska in supporting Tim.

We need a representative in the Legislature to look out for our interests. We need Tim Grussendorf to be our state representative.
