I’m proud to join @smithsonian @amhistorymuseum’s efforts to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment. #SenatorsOnSuffrage https://t.co/jSXP1AVjcE — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Today marks the 100th anniversary of the #19thAmendment being ratified, giving women the right to vote. Today we honor the many women who fought for women’s equality & recognize that as we look to honor the past, we must continue their efforts in the fight for equality. https://t.co/kFNeZVZ0P9 — PolitiTweet.org

When you find you are able to give back & help your neighbors, help your state, help your country– that’s a pretty satisfying initiative. I encourage everyone to stay involved & engaged within your communities as we work to support one another throughout this pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

As part of the project @astartingpoint, creators @ChrisEvans & @MarkKassen asked me what inspired me to get into politics. It's always been about being involved and engaged in what’s happening around me— whether it is at school or in my community. https://t.co/5QSWIQQiJV — PolitiTweet.org

New opportunity in the 1002 Area is needed both now, as Alaskans navigate incredibly challenging times, and well into the future as we seek a lasting economic foundation for our state. — PolitiTweet.org

Today BLM released its Record of Decision for an oil and gas program in the non-wilderness Coastal Plain of ANWR. Through this program, we will build on our already-strong record of an increasingly minimal footprint for responsible resource development. https://t.co/X6UfZxjJEF https://t.co/s4346bFSPU — PolitiTweet.org

#COVID19 has had a devastating impact on the Alaska cruise season, but this project, geared towards growth and expansion is a hopeful reminder that we will recover and come back stronger than ever. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I love that the new facility is truly Alaska-made, utilizing rehabilitated old Ketchikan Pulp Company buildings, historic railroad infrastructure, & living-plant architecture featuring local Alaskan fauna to give visitors the feel of the @TongassNF right off the boat. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

During my recent visit to Ketchikan, I viewed the construction of a new 2-berth cruise ship dock being built collaboratively by Ward Cove Dock Group and Godspeed, Inc. who are partnering with Norwegian Cruise Lines for the project. https://t.co/owG7VjAvkT — PolitiTweet.org

As we continue to work to overcome the implications of #COVID19, we must look at all ways to improve investment & development opportunities. Ultimately, more economic development by and for Indian tribes & Alaska Native corporations means more economic success for all Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Alongside @SenDanSullivan & @RepDonYoung, I've introduced legislation to make TED Bonds more accessible for the economic development projects of American Indians and Alaska Natives by adjusting the existing tax code and increasing the national volume cap. https://t.co/szHfvVGnhG — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Unfortunately, the limitations currently in place regarding the use of TED bonds hinder a number of opportunities for development in Alaska and across the nation. This must change. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

The original intent of Tribal Economic Development Bonds (TED Bonds) was to allow Indian Tribal Governments to finance projects critical to community development. This includes projects such as solid-waste and water treatment facilities, certain residential projects, and more. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

The LOCAL Infrastructure Act, a bipartisan bill I cosponsored, implements changes to the federal tax code to restore advance refunding for tax exempt municipal bonds, providing local and state governments the financial flexibility necessary to invest in critical infrastructure. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Many communities such as Shishmaref, Diomede, and Stebbins still lack basic water and sanitation infrastructure, were already facing budget challenges prior to #COVID19. Those challenges have only become more difficult. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

The #COVID19 pandemic has put enormous strain on local and state government budgets, with many communities and boroughs facing severe financial problems stemming from lost revenue, business closings, and expanded public service demands. https://t.co/sgLaerdimz https://t.co/IXkR1TcZsD — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Great piece by @GovDunleavy on how telehealth is transforming health care in Alaska & the urgent need at every level of govt to support these technologies. Telehealth services are more than cost-effective & convenient- they’re essential to providing access to safe, quality care. — PolitiTweet.org

The Safe Authorization for Vaccines during Emergencies (SAVE) Act, my bill w/ @SenatorBraun & @SenatorHassan works to ensure that the vaccine approval process is clear & transparent, giving Americans the confidence they need in making decisions once we have a successful vaccine. https://t.co/G8mX9QmDRw — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Equally important to finding a safe, effective #COVID19 vaccine is ensuring Americans have the confidence to take it. The SAVE Act, my legislation with @SenatorHassan & @SenatorBraun, ensures transparency in the approval process as well as rigorous scientific review. — PolitiTweet.org
