This is what Trump and the Republican party wants One hundred forty-five elders in Alaska died by suicide between 2020 and 2024. And over the most recent two years, suicide deaths among Alaskans over 75 increased by almost 50%. https://alaskapublic.org/news/health/2026-09-18/elder-alaskans-increasingly-vulnerable-to-dying-by-suicide-according-to-data?fbclid=IwZnRzaAUgnjlwZG9mBWZkaWQWUO-Ts7LjPFTtUpKybC5fZXe-CgIHnmV4dG4DYWVtAjExAHNydGMGYXBwX2lkCjY2Mjg1NjgzNzkAAR7_S-H8-8rJQmdRo4mvhUihAgzYlSj9sNWsD5nHiqyfVnTlWsrVHG2i0HqDew_aem_88sgB8SN_5Can5A_7uHPNg

The breakdown

We couldn't find research to back or challenge the Alaska elder suicide numbers in this post.

Our databases returned no supporting or contradicting studies for either claim about Alaska elder suicide. That means we couldn't confirm or challenge the specific figures in the post. It's not proof that no research exists—just that our search didn't turn up any studies. So these claims sit outside what we can evaluate with the evidence we have.

Bottom line

Basically, we couldn't find studies to check those numbers, so there's not much more we can say about whether they're accurate.
