The Bush Caucus consists of bipartisan members of the Alaska Legislature who represent rural interests. The caucus typically consists of the members of the Alaska House from Districts 37-40 and the Alaska Senate from districts S and T, which cover the Alaskan Bush.

The group is bipartisan with most members being Democrats or Independents. Mary Peltola is a past chair of the caucus. In the late 1990s, she rebuilt the caucus.
