As Interior Approps Subcommittee Chairman I've worked to fund this program & expand it to more bases across the US. I’m proud the Interior FY20 bill provides funding for this program, allowing healing for our veterans as they transition into civilian life. #supportveterans — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
Through the Military Healing Arts program, a partnership between @NEAarts and @DeptofDefense, the arts are used as a creative form of therapy to support service members with traumatic brain injury, post-traumatic stress, and other health conditions. https://t.co/RMbM984l1h — PolitiTweet.org

Around 300 veterans in Alaska benefited from this program last year, making their rent more affordable & permanent housing more attainable. I’m proud to support these efforts to help veterans get the support they need to have a place to call home. #supportveterans — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
To help address housing needs for at-risk and homeless Native Veterans who live on tribal lands, the funding package for Fiscal Year 2020, which recently passed the Senate, provides $1 million to continue the Tribal HUD-VA Supportive Housing program. https://t.co/twzlSDjNwS — PolitiTweet.org

As Deputy Secretary, Dan has been a strong leader who supports an ‘all-of-the-above’ energy strategy. I am confident he will continue to build on the good work of the Department and excel in the new role of Secretary, and fully support his nomination. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
In our meeting, we discussed the Department’s focus on the Arctic, efforts to strengthen the Office of Indian Energy, energy innovation in remote and rural areas, and the important work of the @CCHRC_Alaska in Fairbanks. https://t.co/PJHWEadzR5 — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
This week I met with Deputy Secretary of @ENERGY Dan Brouillette, who is nominated to be the next Secretary. Dan has been a good partner over the years and has made trips to Alaska to see firsthand our energy challenges and opportunities. https://t.co/p00A28ZPHw — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
I worked hard to make sure the needs of Alaska’s fishermen were well-represented in the FY2020 Senate funding bills, which include funding for fisheries surveys and observers, support for the next generation of Alaska’s fishermen, and so much more. https://t.co/vskffTdrKe — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
But in addition to the hard work of our seafood harvesters, Alaska’s fisheries need investment, strong science, and management to ensure our fisheries are healthy and sustainable. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
The seafood industry in Alaska is the largest direct employer in our state, providing 60,000 jobs and generating over $5 billion for Alaska’s economy. It also provides for our nation, with catches in Alaska making up more than 60 percent of all seafood harvests in the U.S. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
A clear, text-based label is the high standard that American consumers deserve. We owe it to consumers to ensure that the standards put in place for labeling GE salmon are understandable. https://t.co/zmHmVT71D1 — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
Building on those efforts, I’m proud that I secured a provision in the recently passed funding bill pkg to prevent any food containing GE salmon from entering the U.S. market until a consumer study is completed to determine the effectiveness of USDA’s recent labeling guidelines. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
For years I’ve worked to ensure clear labeling rules are established to inform consumers that they are purchasing genetically engineered (GE) salmon. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
We have a responsibility to ensure that our employment and training services that are delivered by our tribes are done in the most efficient way possible. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
I also outlined the purpose of the program, noting the importance of continuing to reevaluate and incorporate improvements that are needed to make the mechanism as effective as possible. https://t.co/goHYduyU7X — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
The 477 program allows tribes to pool funding from federal agencies to support projects to tackle the unemployment conditions impacting Native communities. I voiced my concerns with the lack of Tribal consultation that took place in developing how to administer the 477 program. https://t.co/kQekw1agxu — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
This past week I joined my colleagues for a Senate Indian Affairs oversight hearing focused on the PL 477 program, an innovative and comprehensive Native employment and training program. https://t.co/Rkz5u1evd3 — PolitiTweet.org

In Palmer is the @Tier1VetMed, an incredible facility owned by Dr. Sean McPeck, DVM, who retired from the @USArmy in 2016. To Dr. McPeck, and all #veterans, thank you for your service. #NationalVeteransSmallBusinessWeek https://t.co/0t7I6tJZnM — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
Another Alaskan I'd like to highlight is Thaddeus “Ted” Ziemlak, a @USNavy veteran who came to Alaska in 1949 to homestead an 80 acre area of land. Ted co-owned InternationalBuilding Supplies, a local lumberyard, from 1957 to 1986. https://t.co/kRQoyg1MoL — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
.@USArmy veteran Timothy Thomas is another great example. His business in Fairbanks-- Restore Incorporated (Behavioral Health Rehabilitation Treatment Services)-- serves fellow veterans who struggle with addiction and trauma. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
One of these #veteran entrepreneurs is @usairforce veteran, Master Sgt. Sean "Kurdz" Kurdziolek, who served as an Operations Specialist for 10 years and is now the owner of Sean Kurdziolek Portraits & Gallery in North Pole, where he specializes in Aurora portraits. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
As #NationalVeteransSmallBusinessWeek comes to an end, we celebrate the dedicated men and women who have served in our military and now continue to serve their at home by contributing to their local economies. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
While the ultimate goal is to stop these crimes from happening, this funding will increase cold case work, background checks, equipment, & training to ensure that the families & communities that mourn the loss of women & children are able to have closure & find justice. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
When you think about the victims of these terrible crimes, you never forget their stories. Stories like those of Savanna LaFontaine-Greywind, Sophie Sergie, Ashley Johnson-Barr, and so many other women and girls who have fallen victim to this epidemic. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
I'm proud that my Interior-Environment Appropriations bill for FY2020 includes $6.5 million to help the Bureau of @USIndianAffairs take a more comprehensive look at addressing the epidemic of missing and murdered indigenous women and girls. — PolitiTweet.org
Alaska Public Media News @AKpublicnews
“That opens up funding to go … to investigate cold cases and just really put some energy behind this issue,” Murkow… https://t.co/ONEtsZAWZ6

This theater helps share traditions and stories so that others—successive generations—can better learn. Elmer and Mary Louise had a dedication and tremendous focus on promoting the arts and this theater is one more example of their significant generosity. https://t.co/ALXXmKqIet — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
The @SmithsonianNMAI is an extraordinary place for others to learn the history of our nation’s first people. I was honored to celebrate with fellow Alaskans last night as we commemorated the naming of the Elmer and Mary Louise Rasmuson Theater located in the museum. https://t.co/YJ23Izf42B — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
We build the infrastructure and provide the public services that are needed for responsible development, but we also bear the impacts. It is only right we also share in a greater opportunity for the benefit. https://t.co/rE4Ygv7lnl — PolitiTweet.org

When Congress laid the foundation for revenue sharing in 2006, Alaska was not included. The Act would do for Alaska what is does for other oil producing states, provide resources to support communities, protect our coasts, develop cleaner and more affordable energy, and more. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski
One of the legislative items—The COASTAL Act, sponsored by @SenBillCassidy—includes a title written by @SenDanSullivan & myself to establish a revenue sharing program specific to Alaska. More info here: https://t.co/2HfYOarGZ4 https://t.co/p9NFm6TH1N — PolitiTweet.org
