The @USDA’s decision is beneficial in terms of food-security, but it’s also good news for fishermen & coastal communities across our state who are feeling the negative impacts of Chinese tariffs on our seafood products. This is truly a win-win. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I commend @USDA’s approval of a Sec. 32 purchase of up to $41M of surplus Alaska Pollock Products to be dispensed to food nutrition assistance programs- great for coastal communities & fishermen in AK who are feeling the negative impacts of Chinese tariffs on our seafood products — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Alaska Pollock is one of the most valuable fisheries in the nation. Its products are a significant component of Alaska’s seafood industry, providing various health benefits for consumers and adding significant value to our state and national economy. https://t.co/2tJ4LoQQ8b — PolitiTweet.org

Congrats to Joycelyn Katcheak from Stebbins, Alaska, on earning a full scholarship for wrestling to the University of Jamestown, ND- an impressive young Alaskan who worked hard to overcome many life obstacles to achieve her dreams. Keep up the hard work, Joycelyn! — PolitiTweet.org

RT @knom: This August, Joy will begin her college wrestling career at the University of Jamestown in North Dakota. https://t.co/WxpVWLKL8S — PolitiTweet.org

Proud the Senate passed a bill I cosponsored that authorizes permanent funding for the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund of 2001 & the World Trade Center Health Program, to support those who are suffering in the aftermath of 9/11. #Renew911VCF More info here: https://t.co/VXatNGMEhN — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

9/11 first responders are American heroes who put their lives on the line to save strangers & loved ones alike. The unyielding courage & patriotism they demonstrated on that day has left us all w/ the strength & determination to rebuild & renew our nation as a symbol of freedom. https://t.co/88E8VJGe5V — PolitiTweet.org

My statement on the budget deal reached by administration negotiators and congressional leadership: https://t.co/dUiFsJvLEB — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

We need to focus on what a post-financial assistance world could look like, realizing the increasing tension with China in the region. And it’s fair to say that if the U.S. isn’t there with the assistance the FAS hoped for, they’re going to potentially be looking elsewhere. https://t.co/3MFZDRmbN8 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

The expiration of U.S. financial assistance in the Marshall Islands and Federated States of Micronesia at the end of FY 2023, and then in Palau at the end of FY 2024 could create a leadership void that other nations might seek to fill. https://t.co/7F7shglqLx — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Today I chaired a Senate Energy Committee hearing on the relationships the U.S. has with the Freely Associated States (FAS), which include the Republic of the Marshall Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia, and the Republic of Palau. They are truly our friends and allies. https://t.co/LfBzvzaDER — PolitiTweet.org

With over 220 active fires burning in Alaska, I’m thankful to all those that are joining forces to keep AK safe, including a unique, all-women fire crew from the @BLMNational. Whether you’re first-responder from Alaska or from the Lower 48- we’re grateful for your support. — PolitiTweet.org

As the group celebrates its 30th anniversary, I appreciate this group's dedication to working across the aisle to ensure we find the best solutions for all Alaskans. https://t.co/MdHtiQV8pE — PolitiTweet.org

Speaking at the Commonwealth North Luncheon, I gave updates on energy policies I’ve been working on such as my bipartisan lands package, which contained 124 different bills related to economic development, recreation, water mgmt & conservation, which was recently signed into law. https://t.co/qH5X7DlX4s — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

In 1979, Governor Bill Egan and Walter Hickel joined together to create Commonwealth North, a nonpartisan organization founded to find bipartisan solutions to address the challenges and opportunities that Alaskans are dealing with. — PolitiTweet.org

Each summer the brown bears gather at Brooks Falls in @KatmaiNPS to hunt salmon. Tourist & nature enthusiasts alike come to see Alaska’s wildlife up close. For those that can't see it in person—you can still see it live! https://t.co/VWZ81yURZu — PolitiTweet.org

#OnThisDay 50 yrs ago America made history with #Apollo11 landing on the moon. Now, decades later, I still remember distinctly the moment that I watched the first person to ever step foot on the moon as I watched history being made & the realization of what it meant for mankind. https://t.co/LCU9sSBUwL — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I’ve long been an advocate of placing a greater emphasis on the #Arctic, including developing reasonable policies to take advantage of emerging opportunities and challenges, to make certain that America is a leader in the region. https://t.co/qqDgjowuH5 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I was happy to attend the Arctic Reception hosted by the @TheWilsonCenter - a good opportunity to talk with global Arctic leaders on finding a balance between natural resource development and environmental conservation, all while ensuring international cooperation in the #Arctic. https://t.co/Vk7mtCLlxz — PolitiTweet.org

Fab Labs are research centers equipped w/ digitally-controlled tools that allow individuals to create & innovate new products. Proud to introduce the National Fab Lab Network Act w/ Sen. @ChrisVanHollen to increase the number of Fab Labs across the U.S. https://t.co/BFHnY4QnHP — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Fabrication laboratories (Fab Labs) are challenging young Alaskans to pursue STEM education and developing a new generation of problem-solvers to tackle some of our most challenging issues- a place where students’ big, innovative ideas can become reality. https://t.co/kBlDSs8LWP — PolitiTweet.org

By protecting and repatriating tribal cultural heritage, we are preserving the cultural identity and history of our Native populations. Returning stolen items back to their rightful owners in our Native communities aids in the process of healing from cultural oppression. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

The Safeguard Tribal Objects of Patrimony Act, a bill I cosponsored w/ Sen. @MartinHeinrich, simply works to right a wrong. Through this legislation, we can ensure that items of such cultural importance remain with or are returned to their rightful owners. https://t.co/ylv04Pltp4 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Thank you @SecWilkie for visiting Alaska -- specifically the Mat-Su Valley today. Your presence and commitment to working with us to address Alaska's VA healthcare issues is greatly appreciated. https://t.co/vFIA7eDQ6F — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Enjoyed the Congressional Staff Night at the @NMNH w/ my interns. A fan-favorite: the 52-foot-long model of an extinct shark known as the megalodon & an exhibit that included connections to Alaska--models of palm fronds from 50M yrs ago located around Petersburg. https://t.co/YeR8Yoa1xb — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

It’s no surprise, we’re seeing increased activity in the region, so it’s imperative that we are appropriately resourcing the research needed to understand what's happening, building out the necessary infrastructure, and incorporating local knowledge into policy decisions. #IDA8 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I spoke at a symposium on the “Impacts of an Ice-Diminishing Arctic on Naval and Maritime Operations”, hosted by the @polarinstitute, @TheWilsonCenter, @usnatice, & @US_ARC about challenges we face in the #Arctic & how we can engage effectively in the global conservation. #IDA8 https://t.co/GbcyAvm6QG — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Our ability to operate these technologies in the Arctic, is not only a testament to their potential in harsh conditions and to their resiliency, but also to innovative spirit of so many Alaskans that helped make this project a reality. https://t.co/xATmt9EEIg — PolitiTweet.org
