We’ve heard from many communities about the economic impact of no cruise ships. During a Senate Committee on Indian Affairs hearing, the CEO of the Huna Totem Corporation shared that 80% of their local tax base comes from tourism. No passengers coming in means no tax revenue. https://t.co/0A5yGiF2Bk — PolitiTweet.org

Cruising is truly essential to Alaska’s economy. We had 1.3 million visitors to Alaska in 2019 via cruise ships, but in 2020 that number dropped to 48 people via cruises. https://t.co/fBcOyiuqgX — PolitiTweet.org

This is not a fix for the cruise companies. This is help for communities around Alaska for whom opening some semblance of a cruise season this summer is literally going to determine their future. To simply tell people "hold on until 2022" is just not possible. https://t.co/iq9XMRgLVb — PolitiTweet.org
