We are working hard to ensure Fairbanks gets fair access to affordable gas in our community at the same cost as south central.
Senate Resources has heard about tax breaks for the AKLNG at more than 20 meetings. The House Resources Committee chaired by @RepMaxineDibert has had a similar number of meetings. Fairbanks may benefit greatly-but only if a 45-mile line is also part of the project! #akleg

At the AMA Summer kick-off BBQ. Responsible mining is a key part of our economy in the Interior. My grandfather first emigrated from Sweden to be a miner long before Alaska was a state. Mining employs Alaskans & will provide economic returns for our state for generations. #akleg

Thanks to the 1000s of educators across Alaska who have worked tirelessly for months. I know firsthand how stressful your jobs are in the face of criticism from those who don’t understand the difficulties of your mission. You’re doing a great job. Alaskans appreciate you! #akleg

AK Legislature has adjourned sine die!
Care to read about the FY25 budget & what transpired over the last days? Check out Maxine’s Message at:
bit.ly/4aniUbh sine die literally means to adjourn “without a day.” For lawmakers, it signifies "time to go home." #akleg

36 hrs until adjournment time! I will focus on advocating for my top priorities including substantially increasing education funding, lowering the cost of energy for Alaskans, and improving efforts at recruiting/retaining our public safety & education workforce. Buckle up! #akleg

Yesterday I successfully amended HB147, my retired teacher lifetime certificate bill into Representative Himschoot’s bill, HB 230. It then passed by the House as a package, passing by a vote of 39-1. I am hopeful that the Senate can move and pass the bill quickly.

My bill is designed to incentivize retired teachers to obtain their lifetime teacher certificates. Schools face an understaffing crisis. often schools cannot find substitute teachers. The bill helps our skilled retired teachers bring experience back to the classroom. #akleg

Back in Fairbanks on an amazing day! Got to run the first 5k of the season! The Fairbanks Symphony Orchestra Beat Beethoven race is in the books. I was able to finish the 5k race before the end of Beethoven’s 5th Symphony! Looking forward to a great summer of running! #akleg

I had an amazing visit with former UAF Chancellor, Marshall Lind. He served as chancellor at UAF from 1999 to 2005. Before that he served 12 years in charge of University of Alaska Southeast!! This amazing Alaskan also served as Alaska’s Education Commissioner 1972-1983. #akleg

I was proud to support 2 key amendments to the operating budget today. One providing an increase of $480,000 for free and reduced lunches support for our children who need it & more than $8.9 million in bonus funding for our k-3 students for reading instructional support #akleg
Alaska House adds funding for school meals and marketing as budget amendments continue, reports James Brooks (@AK_OK) of the @AlaskaBeacon: alaskabeacon.com/briefs/alas… #akleg
