Our President is entitled to fill out his appointments. We’ve seen over the past 2 yrs a deliberate effort to prevent @POTUS from having his team in place. Noncontroversial noms have been forced to wait for months, even yrs only to be confirmed w/ few or zero votes in opposition. https://t.co/AOKFzospY3

In Alaska this weekend, I met with the League of Women Voters of the Tanana Valley, a nonpartisan organization encourages Alaskans to take an active, informed role in our government. https://t.co/tLGHigEEmH

There are very real opportunities for commerce in the Arctic region. I think Santa figured out that the shortest way to get around the globe was over the pole. He understood the geo-strategic position of the Arctic. #ArcticOpportunities

Alongside my team, ‘The Men (and Women) in Black’, I took part in @SpecialOlymAK's Polar Plunge in honor Jim’s legacy, in support of Special Olympics, & in appreciation of all who dedicate their time & efforts to support this amazing cause.

Alaskans’ response to the recent 7.0 earthquake & almost 4,000 aftershocks is a testament to our resilience and grit, but we also know there is still more that can be done, which is why the enactment of this legislation could not be more timely. https://t.co/aztjjIBTYt

I spent the day yesterday in Anchorage and the Mat-Su Valley w/ @SenDanSullivan to see firsthand the impacts from the recent 7.0 magnitude earthquake. I was thankful for the opportunity to receive updates on disaster response efforts--- from the local, state, and federal levels. https://t.co/0Y3BQe5H97

The 2018 Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson Air Force Ball marked the Air Force's 71st birthday. The event included music, dancing & the time-honored tradition of the youngest & longest standing airmen cutting the cake together. I appreciate the 673rd Air Base Wing for hosting.

Global oil demand is rising, not falling. Our best course is to continue with our efforts to produce more oil here at home. As we produce more, we are creating #jobs, generating revenues, and bringing a degree of #stability and confidence to global markets.

There is simply no substitute for U.S. production, for as long as we need it, even as we seek to diversify away from oil. That’s why I believe it was the right move to open the Coastal Plain of ANWR to responsible development. #EnergySecurity is #NationalSecurity

This year has been marked by greater volatility in global oil prices, which has shown up in the prices being paid at the pump by nearly every American family and business. Today I led an ENR hearing to receive testimony on why this is and what lies ahead. https://t.co/pZCKTWdxP0
