I worked hard to pass language in the @USCG reauthorization bill to protect servicemembers seeking mental health care from discharge & I applaud USCG for announcing a mental health policy update. Nobody should fear discharge for seeking the care needed to fulfill their duties.

I'm a strong supporter of Alaska's aerospace sector & proudly secured $11 mil in the '22 NDAA to support AK's launch ops. Congrats to @Astra on Tuesday's successful launch from Kodiak's Pacific Spaceport Complex. The Last Frontier is leading the way into the Final Frontier! 🚀
