Alaskans & Greenlanders have a lot of knowledge they can share about responsible energy & mineral development, fisheries mgmt, tourism, conservation, & much more, which helps improve collaboration & cooperation in addressing the challenges & opportunities we face in the #Arctic.
I recently had the opportunity to sit down with Denmark’s Ambassador Carla Sands (@USAmbDenmark) to discuss strengthening the ties between Alaska and Greenland so that we can do more to benefit of the inhabitants of the #Arctic. https://t.co/RUSm6t1Vxv
As an #Arctic nation, it’s important that we work collaboratively with other Arctic and near-Arctic nations to find balance in the stewardship and development of this emerging region.
On this #LawEnforcementAppreciationDay, I thank the brave men and women in blue for their selfless service in protecting our communities. #LEAD2020 https://t.co/JwwI1KaPF0

I’m proud of my efforts alongside my Alaskan colleagues @SenDanSullivan and @RepDonYoung to ensure that the final Appropriations measures for Fiscal Year 2020 included a two-year extension of the Secure Rural Schools (SRS) program. https://t.co/UAhfm9tjLH https://t.co/DPfBFn5nwv
The bill provides twelve weeks of paid parental leave as well as improves child care by working to address child care waiting list backlogs, supporting the construction of on-base facilities, and streamlining staff hiring for child development centers. https://t.co/EGG5TOIvKB
I’m proud that the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) not only supports America’s servicemembers, it cares for their families as well. Included in the bill is a 3.1% pay raise for military members, the largest pay raise for our military in over a decade. https://t.co/dhZ7WNyuwy
By also investing in military family housing and healthcare for our service members, we are truly giving our military the support they deserve.
This bipartisan bill aims to address the issue of fragmented case info & data systems regarding public safety in Indian Country to increase interagency coordination b/w federal, state, Tribal, & local law enforcement agencies, providing law enforcement w/ the resources they need.

This is truly exciting news, and a testament to not only the value of our resources, but the interest in them. With a strong investment environment we can refill TAPS, create Alaskan jobs, and get our state’s economy back on track. #EnergyIsGood https://t.co/PIYBWBuCgX
