Alaskans who live in the Tongass want what most Americans take for granted—the opportunity to live, work, and raise their families in the communities they grew up in.

There’s nothing quite like a crisp fall morning in Alaska. Here are some shots from across the state, courtesy of my staff, highlighting the beauty of the Last Frontier. https://t.co/IadvoVDsIa

This past weekend @SenDanSullivan & I sat down with @SecArmy McCarthy in Anchorage – an opportunity to discuss #Arctic strategy, Alaska’s geostrategic role in our nation’s defense, and efforts to support the morale and well-being of our men and women in uniform. https://t.co/ZsGezC7dbl

With most of Alaska’s schools ending their first quarter this past Friday, I wanted to give my thanks to all those working to ensure Alaska’s students are able to continue to receive the education they need and deserve. https://t.co/IQKIMPd5tq

I’m glad that those who participate in Alaska’s fisheries have an opportunity to provide feedback, and I thank ADFG for their work to develop this plan. For more information on the spending plan, or to submit written comments, follow the link below. https://t.co/gG48CeVuT8

With passage of the continuing resolution, and winter weather quickly approaching, I joined @SenatorCollins and @SenJackReed in a letter urging the @HHSGov to release LIHEAP funds as quickly and at the highest level as possible.

As the @EPA has outlined, this change will reduce economic burdens on industries nationwide, from agriculture to water treatment, reduce government spending, and provide a safer and more sustainable domestic source of chitosan to support its many industry applications.

The recent proposed regulation by the @EPA of chitosan as a minimum risk pesticide will benefit both the environment and domestic businesses, and offers a unique opportunity to American seafood producers to increase full-utilization of their catch, while reducing waste streams.

The permit allows A2A to lay track across the border between Alaska and Canada and eventually connect freight rail into the existing Alaska Railroad system. https://t.co/0nIiOH6G4Z

The President’s border-crossing permit for the A2A Railway Development Corp is a big boost for efforts to connect Alaska’s rich resources to a global market via freight rail through Canada. https://t.co/5cJ4m9SX7W

While #COVID19 has impacted my travels in Alaska the past year, I had the chance to visit w/ many strong & resilient Alaska small business owners who are working hard to navigate the financial & health impacts of the pandemic - businesses that need our support now more than ever. https://t.co/hZUInGwE2P

Over 50% of Alaska’s workforce are employed by small businesses, and they're the true backbone of our state and national economy. I encourage Alaskans to #shopsmall and support small businesses and entrepreneurs as we continue to navigate this pandemic. #SmallBusinessWeek https://t.co/KI1kxvkLAU

Both bills, which now head to the President’s desk to be signed into law, aim to combat the #MMIP epidemic by improving the federal government’s response through increased coordination, development of best practices, and creation of commission on reducing violent crime.

After taking the torch on this effort from Senator Heitkamp, I committed to her that we would continue to build on her good work for all those who have been victims of these heinous crimes & whose families are also victims in their own way. Now, we follow through on that promise.

Yesterday, we made significant strides in our efforts to address the crisis of missing, murdered, or trafficked Indigenous people. My two bills, #SavannasAct & #NotInvisibleAct, passed the Senate in March & last night they unanimously passed the House. https://t.co/IEWzPmjSES

The subsistence way of life not only provides food for entire communities, it is also a corner stone of their Alaska Native culture.

I applaud the administration for making this issue a priority and the many tribal advocates who urged action to make this a reality. I look forward to seeing the justice and healing this new facility will bring to families across Alaska.

•This week marks the first day of school for many districts across Alaska, with more right around the corner. The start of a school year is always exciting but this year brings a level of anxiety as we face the continuing unknowns brought by #COVID19. https://t.co/UyrZhLmCGI

We also discussed my efforts in Congress to support health care workers on the frontline of the pandemic. I cannot thank all of Alaska’s health workers enough— at Providence and throughout the state— for their ongoing efforts to combat #COVID19. https://t.co/S9xnpSvJWl

It was a great opportunity to view their ER wing, pediatric ER wing, and new Service Operations Center – an innovative, data-driven facility designed to optimize real-time hospital flow of data. https://t.co/ASEND7jJVw

In Alaska, OIE is a critical partner for Native communities by providing valuable assistance to many of our state’s rural villages who are seeking to move from reliance on expensive diesel fuel to more localized, diverse, renewable resources like wind, hydropower, & even solar.
