Jamie del Fierro Allard (born 1971) is an American politician from Alaska serving as a member of the Alaska House of Representatives since 2023 representing District 23[1] which covers an area East of Anchorage.[2] Allard is a U.S. Army veteran and was a member of the Anchorage Assembly.[3]
Personal life
Allard has Chilean ancestry.[4] Her father, Jose del Fierro, was a resident of Santiago who emigrated to the United States in 1958.
Political Career
Municipality of Anchorage As a member of the Anchorage Assembly, Allard defended Nazi slogans on license plates, citing free speech, which sparked widespread backlash. This resulted in her removal from the Alaska Human Rights Commission by Governor Mike Dunleavy.[5]
Her opposition to COVID-19 measures, like mask mandates, further polarized public opinion. These actions led to a recall effort by Anchorage residents in 2021,[6] citing her controversial statements and perceived failure to represent constituents. The recall did not gather enough signatures to move forward.[7]
