The four Alaska educators were among 215 teachers across the country recently to receive the Presidential Award for Excellence in Math & Science Teaching from the @NSF. This award is the highest honor bestowed by the U.S. government specifically for K-12 #STEM education! #PAEMST — PolitiTweet.org

I had the opportunity yesterday to recognize Joshua Hall & Jennifer Childress, teachers at Dimond High in Anchorage, Dawn Wilcox, a teacher at Campbell Elementary in Anchorage, & Angie Wright, a teacher at Auke Bay Elementary in Juneau, as our AKns of the Week! #AlaskanoftheWeek https://t.co/RZtsk3CgSR — PolitiTweet.org

@usairforce @GenDaveGoldfein We discussed many @usairforce and Alaska national defense priorities, including the F-35s coming to Alaska, missile defense, K-46 deployments in the Asia-Pacific, and the damage that the continuing filibuster of the defense appropriations bill is causing to military readiness. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

@usairforce @GenDaveGoldfein So I thought it appropriate to snap a photo with @GenDaveGoldfein and Billy Mitchell, whose portrait hangs right outside of the Chief of Staff’s office. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

I was honored to join @USAirForce CoS @GenDaveGoldfein and his team for breakfast at the Pentagon. Not surprisingly, the famous quote of Gen. Billy Mitchell, the father of the Air Force, about Alaska being the most strategic place in the world did factor into our discussion! https://t.co/XTIlvcfdYL — PolitiTweet.org

These young @WeAreEDYN leaders are securing the future of democracy in Europe, which means a more stable, safe and prosperous world for Americans and people all over the world. Glad @IRIglobal is supporting their development. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

Great job, Ashley! — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

Honored to present Ashley Perry, of Anchorage, with the prestigious #DailyPointofLight Award in recognition of her Blessing Boxes program, which brings food and basic goods to those who are struggling in our community. @pointsoflight https://t.co/kbbU4MFDk3 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

This week, the @IRIglobal team is in #Berlin helping to convene the @WeAreEDYN network of young European democracy defenders. Proud to chair IRI and support this important work. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

I had a good time last weekend meeting with Alaskans at the Eagle River Lions Club Gun Show. The clubhouse was filled with #2A advocates—great Alaskans who recognize the importance of this right to the 49th state and our way of life. https://t.co/38zMHS4QnV — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

The men and women in our military don't deserve this. It's clear supporting our troops and military readiness is not a priority for Senate Dems, and I think that’s shameful. I hope Americans let their senators know that filibustering critical troop funding is unacceptable. [3/3] https://t.co/otBF7OOr8y — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

Since I've been in the Senate, there's been no bill filibustered more by Senate Dems than the bill that would fund our military. My colleagues on the other side of the aisle have, time & again, leveraged funding of our troops to gain political concessions on other issues. [2/3] https://t.co/5ahn13myNH — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

Senate Democrats today filibustered the defense appropriations bill, legislation that includes critical funding for America’s troops serving overseas, which passed out of committee with unanimous bipartisan support. [1/3] https://t.co/Yu341DfEWC — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

@SenMarkey @NOAA @NSF Appreciate the coverage of our important bipartisan ocean acidification bill, the OCEAN Research Act, by the Massachusetts press. Alaska press? #AKGov #AKLeg? Bueller? https://t.co/uzFG1ggpdB — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

Important update for Alaskans on the #2020Census—from the @USCensusBureau Director himself! #EverybodyCounts #census 🇺🇸 https://t.co/4WDlwGrjxd — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

@SenMarkey @NOAA @NSF Our bill also authorizes significant grants for research partnerships btwn seafood industry & academic institutions. I thank @SenMarkey, who represents another major American seafood producer, for joining me in championing invaluable scientific research & the health of our oceans — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

@SenMarkey @NOAA @NSF Policymakers in Washington—and all stakeholders—must rely on the best, most up-to-date data in order to develop effective responses to the challenge, which is why this legislation is so important. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

@SenMarkey @NOAA @NSF Decreasing balance in ocean pH levels can threaten our fish species 🐟 and their food sources, and, by extension, the very livelihood of our world-class commercial fisheries and coastal communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

@SenMarkey @NOAA @NSF As America’s leading seafood producer and home to more coastline than the contiguous Lower 48 states combined, Alaska is particularly vulnerable to changes in ocean conditions. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

I recently introduced the OCEAN Research Act 🌊 with @SenMarkey of Massachusetts to reauthorize the Federal Ocean Acidification Research and Monitoring Act funding for @NOAA and @NSF, which lapsed in 2012. 👇 https://t.co/robZTQlPi8 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

@kpbsd They had good questions and insights, and I encouraged them to check out our internship program once they complete their high school studies. Thank you to the parents, teachers and chaperones who made this visit possible! https://t.co/5KdknkPyQS — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

I had a great time meeting with a BIG contingent of students from @KPBSD Skyview Middle School in #Soldotna, along with their state Senator Peter Micciche, on the steps of the Capitol. https://t.co/9MfQE89oFe — PolitiTweet.org

@washingtonpost @SenWhitehouse @PostOpinions @POTUS With the attention we’re getting back home and from national outlets, like the Post, I am optimistic that we will be able to achieve another significant win to improve the health of our oceans and forcefully address the marine debris crisis. #SaveOurSeas — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

@washingtonpost @SenWhitehouse @PostOpinions @POTUS Working with developing nations to better manage their waste is crucial to cutting off the source of so much of the trash entering our oceans—trash that often makes its way to Alaska’s waters and shorelines. #SaveOurSeas — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

@washingtonpost @SenWhitehouse @PostOpinions @POTUS Importantly, our bill has an entire section dedicated to engaging with the handful of nations in Southeast Asia responsible for more than half of the plastics in the ocean. #SaveOurSeas — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

@washingtonpost @SenWhitehouse @PostOpinions Last year, @POTUS signed our original #SaveOurSeas Act into law. Having formed a broad coalition and built much momentum, @SenWhitehouse and I decided to push on with new legislation to make even more progress on this entirely solvable crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

@washingtonpost @SenWhitehouse As @PostOpinions writes, the bill “would overhaul the country’s recycling infrastructure … create a fund to respond to ‘marine debris events’ – like a container ship accident … and finance research into repurposing used plastic into useful things.” #SaveOurSeas — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

#ICYMI, the @washingtonpost penned a great editorial on the marine debris crisis and our recently introduced #SaveOurSeas 2.0 Act, my legislation with @SenWhitehouse and @SenBobMenendez. 🌊 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

As the president said, our military is the very best in the world, and because of that, terrorists who threaten our country will never be able to sleep soundly at night. We owe a deep debt of gratitude to these brave men and women. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan

The daring mission last night, executed by our special forces, will no doubt make it more difficult for ISIS to regroup, threaten the U.S., our citizens, or our allies. — PolitiTweet.org
