Last night I had the opportunity to attend the opening of the @LibraryofCongress’s exhibition on women’s suffrage titled, “Shall Not Be Denied: Women Fight for the Vote” to explore the people who have played important roles in ensuring gender equality in the U.S. https://t.co/BmTERuP2Vl — PolitiTweet.org

I thank the @LibraryofCongress for their efforts commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the #19thAmendment by reminding us of the difficult and arduous process that led to women gaining the right to vote, and to remind us of the work we have ahead of us regarding women’s rights. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

It is so important that in the present we recognize those women among us and those who came before us that blazed the trails and made it possible for women to not only have a seat at the table, but to be active participants in the in the progress of our nation. — PolitiTweet.org

I encourage all Americans to remember the men & women who made it possible, & to honor them by recognizing that the right to vote—to be heard & valued—is a precious right that did not come easily, has not always been implemented fairly, & which must always be guarded & defended. https://t.co/zJVH9OJEei — PolitiTweet.org

Since 1919, women are able to enter any profession for which they are qualified, keep their own wages, start and run corporations, inherit their own property, lead scientific and medical advances, and fly into space. Woman can, and have, done anything we’ve set our minds to. https://t.co/51ST6Gy0m8 — PolitiTweet.org

Today I joined some of my colleagues in commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the Congressional Passage of the 19th Amendment. The right to vote gave women the power to change their lives and to impact our nation in so many positive and profound ways. #womensvote100 — PolitiTweet.org

Today we recognize the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th amendment, allowing women not only the right to vote but the chance to be heard. Thanks to the @womensvote100 for supplying yellow roses, a symbol of the women’s suffrage movement. https://t.co/jwqZCzvv1N — PolitiTweet.org

We've seen how effective energy storage can be improving our energy output while reducing emissions in Alaska, such as the town of Cordova, which is pairing a battery w/ hydropower to lower their energy costs in their small fishing village & reduce their reliance on diesel fuel. https://t.co/xniTojBBOM — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I chaired an Energy Cmte hearing examining opportunities for expanded deployment of grid-scale energy storage. Energy storage, the process of capturing grid electricity grid & storing it for future use, presents an opportunity for a cleaner, more resilient & more affordable grid. https://t.co/KdTwNjhukx — PolitiTweet.org

My recent trip to Bethel and Napaskiak with U.S. Attorney General Barr was a good opportunity to examine these issues first hand—a significant step towards addressing our lack of law enforcement and the epidemic of missing and murdered indigenous women across the state. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Unfortunately, many rural communities in Alaska are hundreds of miles away from the next community w/ access to a Village Public Safety Officers (VPSO) or other law enforcement, & if emergencies do occur in these communities, many do not have access to a “9-1-1” emergency system. — PolitiTweet.org

Through collaboration and sharing technologies and best practices, there is so much we can learn from the #Arctic and other remote areas across the globe. Click here to learn why: https://t.co/k6iUmyX1fJ — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

The #Arctic is a part of the world that is as dynamic & evolving as almost any other place on earth. I recently returned from an Arctic-focused trip w/ my Senate colleagues to develop a better understanding of the region & learn more on energy technologies & climate research. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

We also viewed the police department’s holding cells, used to detain criminals & also intoxicated individuals until they are able to be safely released. It was a sobering & significant experience to hear the many challenges these young law enforcement officers face. https://t.co/qktP4xMeZM — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

While visiting the Napaskiak Police Station, U.S. Attorney General Barr & I met with local law enforcement to discuss the pressing issue of public safety. We spoke with two new Tribal Police officers—one with one month of training and the other with two—both under the age of 21. https://t.co/epN7vdYGNW — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

We also heard from youth leaders & watched a group of Napaskiak youth perform traditional songs and dances. I was thankful to each community member that spoke & look forward to working Attorney General Barr to help correct this public safety disparity. https://t.co/5gCkGFPlu7 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Maxie explained the severity of the public safety issues in Napaskiak— emphasizing that the loss of Alaska Natives happens far too often. He noted that the situation, due to the lack of adequately trained law enforcement presence, should be considered a national emergency. https://t.co/rIwGb557Pr — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

In the remote village of Napaskiak, U.S. Attorney General Barr & I heard compelling testimony from Steven Maxie Jr, Napaskiak tribal chief, about the challenges of living in a truly remote community, served only by boat in the summer or ice road in the winter. https://t.co/evE5kNN6BT — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

@AVCPAlaska also presented a proposal for how to best counteract those issues, outlining a practical way to create more secure communities across the state. Wherever you live, public safety is a basic human right—I’m committed to ensuring that all Alaskans are provided just that. https://t.co/LcfeuWF2SM — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Many of the AVCP board members shared their personal struggles as well as some of the unimaginable experiences that have occurred in their communities due to the lack of law enforcement. https://t.co/9VBDXm6xqB — PolitiTweet.org
