Alaskans will vote for their at-large U.S. Representative during Tuesday's election. This year, longtime Republican Rep. Don Young is being challenged by a political newcomer, Forrest Dunbar.

Young didn't make himself available for an interview with KUCB this year. But Dunbar made a campaign stop in Unalaska in September.

The Democrat sat down with KUCB's Annie Ropeik to talk about how he’d advocate in Congress for fisheries and the Coast Guard in Unalaska -- and how he'd secure federal dollars for the energy and shipping opportunities that could be on the town's horizon.
