Happy #SummerSolstice, Alaska! To the lower 48ers who are curious: Yes, it is light almost all day in some communities at this time of year. This photo was taken today in Anchorage, a little after 10PM.☀️ There’s nothing quite like the Midnight Sun. https://t.co/TlBz0gpSwD

The folks here at ATA ensure that the lifelines of communication stay open for Alaskans—and in the process, ensure commerce, education, healthcare, and opportunity in the 21st century are possible for all Alaskans.

As each day passes, gas & energy prices are reaching all-time highs. President Biden and his Administration are stuck playing the blame game. It's time for the Administration to ACT.
While the 6,000 flags planted represent the number of diagnoses a year, it also is an important reminder of the lives we’re fighting for. https://t.co/7Qfr14vMX5
This #ALSAwarenessMonth, I’m thinking of the many advocates at @IamALS and the many individuals who are living with the horrible disease. I’m grateful for their efforts to raise awareness, shed light on the lives lost to ALS, and their commitment to finding a cure. https://t.co/xOolrL1Ms3
Right now, Alaska is facing a severe fentanyl crisis. Our state saw a 71 percent increase in drug overdose deaths between 2020 and 2021—impacting families and lives forever. It’s past due time we address this issue. #FentanylAwarenessDay https://t.co/PPUSBdlZ02
At the symposium we had representatives from nearly 40 federal & state agencies, as well as entities like @AlaskaMunicipal & @NativeFed, to walk Alaskans through how to pursue these opportunities. I look forward to seeing the bright future we will build for Alaska, together.
Over the next several years, the infrastructure law I helped write will allocate funding to over 350 distinct programs run by more than a dozen federal departments and agencies—providing historic investments in core physical infrastructure.
I loved connecting with so many Alaskans who made the trip to take part in my Infrastructure Grant Symposium, which I put on to provide Alaskans with a better understanding of the immense funding made possible by the bipartisan infrastructure law. https://t.co/8WQ5OlTLQE
Paying my respects alongside fellow Alaskans, and seeing Don enter and leave the Capitol one last time, is something I will always cherish. https://t.co/nFQyT2lIM5
Congressman Young joined the U.S. House of Representatives in 1973. In his first year in office, he helped authorize the Trans-Alaska Pipeline, which has been Alaska's economic backbone ever since. Not long after, his colleagues chose him as the Freshman Congressman of the Year.

But that doesn’t make his loss any less sudden or any less devastating. And it doesn’t change the fact that we are left with a hole the size of Alaska in our congressional delegation.
I thank Valerie Nurr’araaluk Davidson of the @ANTCHtoday for her support of the funding I secured for Alaska in the FY22 Omnibus bill. https://t.co/smutRrjb04
Alaskans grapple with some of the highest home heating costs in the US, and the price of fuel is soaring across the nation. To help offset those costs, I worked hard to ensure the omnibus appropriations bill increased funding for energy efficiency & renewable energy projects. https://t.co/gJ7P4JUF89
The Senate passed the omnibus government funding bill that includes the bipartisan #VAWA reauthorization, which is now heading to the President’s desk. I’m proud to have authored this legislation with @SenFeinstein, @SenJoniErnst, and @SenatorDurbin. https://t.co/k0u3gkOq6d https://t.co/4ImJA6Ow5D

Great to be in beautiful Fairbanks today by the Chena River to appreciate the Winter Solstice sunset at 2:39PM.
