Happy Father’s Day to all our Fathers and Father-figures. I’ve been blessed with an extraordinary father and am fortunate enough to have a wonderful father for our sons in my husband Verne. I hope we all take this weekend to recognize & celebrate the great dads out there. https://t.co/ULmQK1FmSl — PolitiTweet.org

As we continue to combat #COVID19, unfortunately we do not have an intern program this summer. But I have enjoyed thinking back on the amazing young Alaskans I’ve had in D.C. over the past 17 years, & I look forward to hosting more in the future & watching them learn & grow. — PolitiTweet.org

Since I first came to the U.S. Senate, every summer I have been able to invite high school graduates from Alaska to come and spend a month in our nation’s capital to work in my office as part of my summer intern program. https://t.co/vwgclahopb — PolitiTweet.org

I’m proud to be co-leading the Keeping Girls Safe from the Start Act which is a bipartisan, bicameral bill focused on combating gender-based violence in conflict settings, including refugee camps. Together, we can help ensure the safety & prosperity of refugees around the globe. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Today, on #WorldRefugeeDay, we come together to honor the strength and resilience of refugees in Alaska and around the globe. We must work to support and protect these vulnerable populations wherever they are. https://t.co/JKqwzkss0e — PolitiTweet.org

This week and beyond, I’m asking all Alaskans to be aware, to look for evidence of invasive species, and to report anything you find to the Alaska Invasive Species Hotline at 1-877-INV-ASIV (or 1-877-468-2748). — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

During Alaska Invasive Species Awareness Week, I urge all Alaskans to stay educated on invasive species and the steps we can take to prevent them from entering our habitats in order to protect the wild Alaska that we know and love. https://t.co/suHgbWq9VD — PolitiTweet.org

Special thanks organizations such as @iamALS for your tireless efforts in the fight against ALS. As a member of the Senate #ALS Caucus, I’m proud to support you in your efforts to #EndALS — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I welcome the @NIH's announcement to invest $25M over 5 yrs in a new program to spur innovative #ALS research. Together—alongside agencies such as the NIH, advocacy groups, healthcare professionals & families of those living with ALS—we can make real & lasting change. — PolitiTweet.org

I recently sent a letter urging @NOAA officials to prioritize improvements to tsunami-monitoring in Prince William Sound & throughout Alaska, & to ensure that the U.S. Tsunami Warning System can rapidly notify potentially at-risk communities like Whittier. https://t.co/9nXXOGwnaF — PolitiTweet.org

An opportunity to update and modernize our energy policies in a way that benefits us all is something that I hope we can all agree to. Let’s get this bill moving. #AEIA https://t.co/nLwf0u6t5R https://t.co/JuB8sXftag — PolitiTweet.org

It doesn’t make any difference if you are Republican or Democrat, if you come from an urban area or a rural area, when it comes to the strength of our nation’s economy, the foundational interest here, the foundations rest so solidly on energy. https://t.co/nGwY8hUT9M — PolitiTweet.org

#AEIA will help our economy, boost our international competitiveness, and protect human health and the global environment. https://t.co/fEnFf4Xeb5 — PolitiTweet.org

The bipartisan American #EnergyInnovation Act (#AEIA) will ensure the U.S. remains a global energy leader, while strengthening our national security, investing in clean energy technologies, and securing our nation’s supply chain. https://t.co/1ff4nMy5Sd — PolitiTweet.org

Today is #Juneteenth, the nation’s oldest & most celebrated recognition of the ending of slavery in the U.S. It's a day for celebration, and a reminder to us that we have much work to do ahead of us to realize our nation's foundational principles of equality & justice for all. https://t.co/nv2vW5knFv — PolitiTweet.org

As the Senate prepares to consider police reform, today I spoke on the Senate Floor about the urgent need for Congress to put politics aside, come together, and debate honestly about where we are when it comes to addressing the injustices we face as a nation. https://t.co/t3IGSD2yE6 — PolitiTweet.org

Unfortunately, emerging data suggests that one unintended consequence of the #COVID19 stay at home orders has been an increase in incidents of domestic violence & abuse, particularly against women & girls. This legislation works to better prevent and address GBV from the start. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

The Keeping Women and Girls Safe from the Start Authorization Act, legislation I introduced w/ @SenatorMenendez, @SenatorShaheen, @SenatorCardin, & @SenBlumenthal, will bolster current U.S. & international efforts to address gender-based violence (GBV). https://t.co/z4uWsS2o7h https://t.co/IRQpeiPCNx — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to see that the @PBSKIDS program @MollyofDenali has been awarded the prestigious Peabody Award. Molly of Denali is a uniquely Alaskan show that helps explain Alaska’s unique, diverse cultures and other serious issues to children across the U.S. — PolitiTweet.org

Witness Dr. Rheuban responded by describing Alaska as a leader in telehealth, and explained that balance will be found thorough the gathering of information from specialty groups, organized medicine groups, nurses, and others in the medical field. https://t.co/eo1EktXXGm — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I also questioned witnesses on how we can take lessons learned from the pandemic regarding telehealth and use that information to expand access to telehealth. https://t.co/FbMbSfZmrU — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

During the hearing, I spoke to the extraordinary benefits telehealth has provided to Alaskan communities, particularly in remote regions, and the challenges communities face regarding telehealth services, such as reimbursement of telehealth costs. https://t.co/i5Iq9fbQSi — PolitiTweet.org

While I wish we could have amended #GAOA to incorporate additional priorities for Alaska, this is a strong and important conservation measure, and one that I support. https://t.co/KqwRgqu0zx — PolitiTweet.org
