33 years ago today, the Exxon Valdez oil spill impacted not only the lives of thousands of Alaskans, but also thousands of miles of our coastline around Prince William Sound and beyond. — PolitiTweet.org

He was tough, gruff, and feisty. But he was also warm, engaging, even charming. He was passionate about Alaska, and Alaskans, to his very core. And he was loyal and devoted—to his family, friends, and staff, and to the state and the people he loved so dearly. — PolitiTweet.org

For those who didn’t have the privilege of knowing Congressman Young, as so many Alaskans did, he was all of the things that have been written and said about him over the past several days—and more. He was larger than life, as colorful as they come. https://t.co/uMmEBlSsOi — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Don Young gave Alaska his all. As a true man of his people, he was the perfect Alaskan to serve in the people’s chamber. Tonight, @SenDanSullivan & I spoke in honor of the life & legacy of the late Don Young, the Congressman for All Alaska. https://t.co/n7aFuJeOwt — PolitiTweet.org

Our reality is that for the first time in 49 years, Alaska does not have a Congressman in the House of Representatives. For the first time in 49 years, Alaska does not have Don Young there to defend, advocate, and legislate on our behalf. — PolitiTweet.org

Being a Congressman for Alaska requires every last bit of you. It requires tremendous sacrifice, from you and your family. But from his first day through his last, Don Young gave it his all. He did the job better than anyone. — PolitiTweet.org

The record shows that Congressman Young was one of the best legislators of our time. Despite being just one of 435 voting members of the House, and the only one there to represent Alaska, he was repeatedly named one of his chamber’s most effective members. — PolitiTweet.org

If you thought Senator Stevens was legendary and tenacious in his pursuit of federal dollars to help build Alaska—just know that Congressman Young was right there with him, every step of the way, making sure Alaska received what we would call our fair share. — PolitiTweet.org

He passed legislation to open a small part of the non-wilderness 1002 Area, in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, a dozen times before we steered it into law in 2017. He never gave up, and his commitment to our energy security should be more appreciated than ever. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Young joined the U.S. House of Representatives in 1973. In his first year in office, he helped authorize the Trans-Alaska Pipeline, which has been Alaska's economic backbone ever since. Not long after, his colleagues chose him as the Freshman Congressman of the Year. — PolitiTweet.org

But that doesn’t make his loss any less sudden or any less devastating. And it doesn’t change the fact that we are left with a hole the size of Alaska in our congressional delegation. — PolitiTweet.org

Congressman Don Young dedicated his life to his state and country—& we are all better for it. For many Alaskans, he was a representative for their entire life. The only thing as powerful as his stature and personality was his love for his family and state. — PolitiTweet.org
