Alaska is home to more than 40 percent of the nation's tribes, and indigenous peoples make up about 20 percent of our state's total population. Beyond just statistics and more importantly, they represent our friends, neighbors, family, and communities. Happy #IndigenousPeoplesDay

I thank the President for listening to @SenDanSullivan, @Rep_Peltola, @GovDunleavy, and me, and approving our request for a 100% waiver of the State’s cost share for federal assistance associated with recovery efforts from the Western Alaska disaster.

I am glad to see that the Biden Administration has honored our request to waive 100% of the State’s cost share for additional disaster assistance. Alaska’s Congressional Delegation and I know the waiver will go a long way in helping repair the damage to these communities.
