Meet J.T.

J.T. McComas-Roe is not your typical candidate. He’s a licensed master plumber, a small business owner, and a hands-on problem solver who’s spent over a decade building his life in Fairbanks. Married and settled with two energetic Scottish Terriers—Hamilton and Hilda—J.T. is stepping into the political arena for the first time, bringing with him years of real-world experience and public service.
