Thanks to everyone, including members of my staff, who joined me in taking part in Anchorage’s citywide cleanup. It’s a great excuse to get outside and keep Alaska beautiful. Every little bit helps! https://t.co/0W3hh4cgbG — PolitiTweet.org

Proud to represent our #Arctic nation by serving as Vice Chair on the Standing Committee of the Parliamentarians of the Arctic Region (SCPAR). The SCPAR has updated its website with information on new leadership and goals for the Arctic region. https://t.co/C0eZLDp7kc — PolitiTweet.org

On the 13th annual Alaska Mining Day, we celebrate the individuals and organizations that have played an integral role in responsible resource development in the Alaska Frontier, and who continue to contribute to our state’s economic prosperity. https://t.co/VRv0tJyOHA — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I recently penned an Op-Ed raising the importance of diplomacy in the #Arctic and the importance of maintaining peace in the region. The Arctic can continue to be a place of peace if we only try. https://t.co/cR1htuUMM8 — PolitiTweet.org

Happy Mother’s Day to moms everywhere. Raising two boys has been one of my life’s greatest joys. I am blessed to have an amazing mother who has shown me unconditional love and support throughout my life. https://t.co/DWX44COpH8 — PolitiTweet.org

Operations will be able to expand year round, making summer exploration more viable and a smaller footprint means no gravel pads or ice roads. https://t.co/DClK7JmOpz — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

The feet can sit directly on the tundra and will not transfer heat so there are no permafrost thaw problems to deal with. The rig is modified from a mining rig design but in the O&G industry, can be used to drill test and exploration wells up to 8000 feet. https://t.co/y94eA8xnud — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I was excited to see the Alaska Drilling & Completions new, low footprint drilling rig, called the DeLorean Rig, which can be used for exploration and testing. This innovative design is installed entirely by helicopter and will not require ice roads for operations. https://t.co/iqo4NalzYs — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

The prospect of this new facility was made possible through the hard work of Hatcher Mountain Xperience and the support of their fellow Alaskans, which makes it an even more special addition to surrounding communities. https://t.co/WlXmBv2JFY — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Just finishing up its inaugural ski season, Hatcher Alpine Xperience is making significant improvements and additions to the Skeetawk ski area, including a second ski lift, new lighting, snowmaking capabilities, and even a lodge. https://t.co/xFmmknzjvF — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I was glad to join some of the folks from the Hatcher Alpine Xperience to see the new recreational outdoor facility at Skeetawk in Hatcher Pass. https://t.co/wIQN1hm1Lm — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I appreciated the opportunity to not only to give an update from D.C. but also to hear directly about some of their priorities and challenges they face. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

This week I joined the Mayors and Managers of Palmer, Wasilla, and the Mat-Su Borough where we discussed infrastructure, tourism, and resource development—including my legislation that would help ramp up the domestic supply chain of critical minerals. https://t.co/m5VJ2MHwF8 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

While in Anchorage, I attended the @APaideia 2021 graduation ceremony where 16 of this year’s 50 graduates received their diplomas. Congratulations to each of the young Alaskans who completed their high school career and to their families who supported them along the way. https://t.co/uHjZpb1iuX — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

@APaideia Cooperative school—a statewide homeschool program offered through the Anchorage School District—offers students many of the benefits of learning at a larger district while still experiencing the homeschool approach of personalized learning. https://t.co/UCxSv13bkl — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I also talked through challenges we’re facing due to President Biden’s overreaching actions to close down Alaska’s economy. I was glad to share some of the work taking place, but also to speak to a group of Alaskans directly after so many months of separation due to COVID. https://t.co/nbCQ23O4rq — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I joined a meeting of the Palmer Rotary Club to give an update on some of the things happening in DC. I talked through a number of policy initiatives that have been signed into law, including #COVID19 relief, the Great American Outdoors Act, and my bipartisan Energy Act. https://t.co/bAUj5FbIbs — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Thanks to Kenai Mayor Brian Gabriel, City Manager Paul Ostrander, and their team, for bringing me up to speed on Kenai’s infrastructure needs—from addressing bluff erosion to physical structures and roads in need of repair. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Right now, the U.S. Senate is keenly focused on developing an infrastructure package, so I’ve been spending this week in Alaska, maximizing my time with Alaskans to get a better sense of our state’s unique infrastructure needs. https://t.co/vJo8pxR73l — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

We have a lot of work to do, but thank you to the Kenai and Soldotna Chambers for what you are doing in our communities to keep people safe while also helping to reopen our economy. https://t.co/3P8MAcWNAF — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I’ve also been pressing the Biden administration on allowing certain projects to resume so we can continue with our responsible resource development that Alaska does better than anyone else in the world. https://t.co/XHHZ433QCf — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I was honored to give an update to the Kenai-Soldotna Joint Chamber. I’ve been working to restore the struggling tourism industry, standing up for Alaska’s infrastructure projects, & ensuring there are enough visas available for our fishing industry to have the workers it needs. https://t.co/G9NuPJkYJm — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

This group represents a broad spectrum of the entire peninsula and were able to share with me a number of their priorities for the region, including infrastructure projects, and how I can come alongside them at the federal level. https://t.co/IfqdEMEodZ — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

To date, Kenai hasn’t reported a single business closure as a result of the pandemic, and much of that can be attributed to the success of that collaboration. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I appreciated the discussion I had in Kenai with members of the Kenai Peninsula Economic Development District #KPEDD about their work and partnership with the local businesses, local government, state, and nonprofits, to utilize the federal COVID relief money for maximum benefit. https://t.co/WshnlINd0l — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

It’s important to raise awareness, but it’s also about action. I’ve been heartened to see so many join us—from the federal, tribal, state, and local levels—in an all-hands-on-deck approach to bringing justice to individuals and families. https://t.co/aRlcODOkWw — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I was proud to be with members of the Kenaitze Indian Tribe in Kenai today, where we held a prayer and candlelight vigil to remember and honor these women and girls who have fallen victim to such a horrible reality. https://t.co/0GoY5Wg7H1 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

Today on #NationalDayofAwareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls #MMIWG, we recognize the devastation that so many families have endured. https://t.co/w2VU27UL3v — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

I look forward to continuing to work with Mr. Steinbrunner and the Alaska @DeptVetAffairs to ensure the men and women who served and sacrificed for our nation receive the best care possible. https://t.co/AaPvBHu0MH — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski

While in Anchorage I had my first meeting with Tom Steinbrunner since he was appointed as the Executive Director of the Alaska VA Healthcare System. He gave me an update on the rollout of TriWest’s Community Care Network (CCN)—the next generation of healthcare for the VA. https://t.co/TGQTL5wmWZ — PolitiTweet.org
