What was Mary Peltola accused of by former member of her staff?

In a September 2026 article, The New York Times reported on allegations that Mary Peltola had berated and abused her staff members, had a volatile temper and had used offensive and derogatory language. Her opponent in the race for the U.S. Senate, Republican incumbent Sen. Dan Sullivan said the revelations offered insight into Peltola’s true character. Peltola’s office said many of the allegations were false or exaggerated and date from 2023, the time shortly after the deaths of her mother and husband.
