Mary Peltola Returns to Washington

Rep. Mary Peltola (D-AK) “says she’s ready to return to Washington. She’s been in Alaska since learning that her husband, Eugene ‘Buzzy’ Peltola, died Sept. 12 following a plane crash,” Alaska Public Media reports.

Said Peltola: “The past few weeks have been some of the most difficult in my life. I am so thankful for the space that Alaskans have given me to celebrate Buzzy’s life with my family, and for all those who celebrated it with us.”
