Rep. Dan Ortiz , I- Ketchikan , sits at the Senate Finance Committee table in the Alaska State Capitol during a conference committee meeting on May 14, 2024.
Alaska House District 1 covers Ketchikan, Metlakatla, Saxman, Wrangell, Hyder, and part of northern Prince of Wales Island. Ortiz is a former Ketchikan High School teacher and coach, and has represented the district since 2015. He filed for reelection in July of last year. “I could continue to run and I can continue to serve.
