.@MAPTSUA, established through the @UA_System , provides hands-on training for the mining & the oil & gas industry.

As we increase our overall engagement in the Arctic, we must work collaboratively and cooperatively to advance our priorities in the region that will address our strategic challenges but also benefit those who live, work, and raise their families in the Far North. https://t.co/eTCe3o4inh — PolitiTweet.org

We have so much to focus on in the region, whether it’s building out #arctic infrastructure including ports and icebreakers, increasing support for our maritime opportunities in the region, and sharpening our tools of economic statecraft. https://t.co/o32fRvTzMp — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I joined AK Native leaders, the military, & energy leaders to discuss addressing the new realities in the #Arctic at @NativeFed’s roundtable on Northernmost Border Security. These discussions are critical to facilitating the strong relationships needed to succeed in the Arctic. https://t.co/NqhYPJIZay — PolitiTweet.org

It's clear that changing conditions in the #Arctic has opened a window for strategic & economic opportunities, as well as tough challenges to address. Alaska’s operations are different & somewhat isolated which makes it imperative to link together presenting a strong united front — PolitiTweet.org

Alaska is full of pioneers who are blazing trails in everything from creating hybrid microgrids to the ways we use geothermal, tidal, & home energy efficiency technologies. So we’ll keep doing what Alaskans always have: setting the standard not only for the U.S., but the world. https://t.co/DOrAWHfY8B — PolitiTweet.org

We have tremendous renewable energy opportunities here in Alaska. I spoke at the @REAlaska 15th Anniversary celebration on how we can best take care of the place we are lucky enough to live in, particularly when it comes to Alaska’s abundant & untapped renewable energy resources. https://t.co/qungKwTAmB — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

The heart of the issue is the self determination of our AK Native communities & how we can best provide quality healthcare. These conversations are critical to finding sensible solutions for the broader community & are very informative as we go into another Appropriations cycle. https://t.co/tfMaTy0xGT — PolitiTweet.org

I recently joined a very productive meeting with leaders of regional health organizations, tribal leaders, and the @IHSgov for a constructive discussion on their perspectives on the structure of the Alaska Tribal Health System. https://t.co/MmdmUHBNGE — PolitiTweet.org

As the Swan Lake fire continues to impact Alaskans, it’s been heartening to hear so many stories of Alaskans pitching in to help those in need. This story goes to show you the lengths Alaskans take to help out others---or in this case, a sea otter pup. — PolitiTweet.org

My National Volcano Early Warning and Monitoring System Act to modernize, improve & expand our nation’s volcano-related capabilities was signed into law this year, and visits like these are valuable to see how policy will make a difference to keep communities and travelers safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

This week, @EnergyDepSec & I visited an @alaska_avo monitoring station on 1 of the highest-threat volcanoes in the nation, Mount Spurr. We heard about the good work AVO is doing to keep an eye on the 52 high-threat Alaskan volcanoes and efforts to improve warning capabilities. https://t.co/S72QX9G1wX — PolitiTweet.org

From wind turbines to electric thermal storage stoves and battery energy storage systems- it’s exciting to see the implementation of cleaner, more efficient & more affordable energy systems for Alaskan communities. https://t.co/9TImM2y40D — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Thanks to @EnergyDepSec for coming to Alaska to see firsthand out energy opportunities as well as challenges. We had the opportunity to visit Kwigillingok and Kongiganak, both rural villages working on innovative solutions to transition off diesel to more sustainable energy. https://t.co/sulRVi1zUe — PolitiTweet.org

Happy 65th anniversary to my amazing parents! Their commitment to each other and to Alaska is an incredible example to us all. Love you mom and dad! https://t.co/sVujeUN20V — PolitiTweet.org

The opportunity to share with students and to hear directly from them is so important. If we don’t actively work to include them in the conversations & decisions we’re making in the state, across nation, & around the globe—we can’t be surprised when they don’t want to be engaged. https://t.co/cdfiMY7Hju — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

The students asked me questions on everything from what my role is as a U.S. Senator & the differences between federal & state legislatures to opportunities to increase funding for fire assistance and relief and even who I think is a better ball player-- LeBron or Michael Jordan. https://t.co/THDU9c1HJT — PolitiTweet.org

Recently, I spoke to the students of Houston High School during an assembly about Alaska’s leadership role in innovation across a variety of sectors, including energy, healthcare, education, and even agriculture. https://t.co/XVLXkhTv9h — PolitiTweet.org

Whether you’re a local business, performer, or simply an Alaskan enjoying the fair— it’s the perfect way to celebrate summer and all that Alaska has to offer. https://t.co/khYGu5948B — PolitiTweet.org

I loved being able to spend some time at the @AlaskaStateFair. Visiting with so many Alaskans, checking out the Alaska-grown produce, and of course, brushing up on my hula-hooping skills, made for a great day. https://t.co/RGvDzRxjYf — PolitiTweet.org

To the 16 crews currently fighting the McKinley fire flames: Thank you for risking your safety for the sake of others. I am deeply grateful. https://t.co/XDrhrb0wHE — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I was briefed by Deputy Incident Commander Tom Kirk, the AK Incident Management Team, Mayor Vern Halter & local, state & national firefighters. We discussed their past & future efforts & what I can do at a federal level to help support fire mitigation and prevention efforts. https://t.co/8gx9b7VuuM — PolitiTweet.org

The McKinley Fire near Willow has been raging for over ten days now, having burned over 3,300 acres in the area. I paid a visit to the Incident Command Center in Willow which is serving as the headquarters for fire management efforts for this disaster. https://t.co/WxPnb5VwXX — PolitiTweet.org

I thank @BetsyDeVosED for visiting & appreciate the American Charter Academy for their dedication to ensuring every student has access to a quality education. Their school is a great example of the diverse options that we offer within our public school system in Alaska. https://t.co/evZ4BSvDAf — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

We also took part in a roundtable made up completely of students, who shared that while the school was “doing the best they could with what they had”-- a new location for the school (currently located in a strip mall) would make a huge difference in their educational experience. https://t.co/u3RHeQY8C8 — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday U.S. Secretary of Education @BetsyDeVosED & I visited the American Charter Academy, a public charter school with a strong focus on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math), digital literacy, cultural literacy and civics. https://t.co/33J6aAyKSW — PolitiTweet.org
