- Today’s ruling is exactly what I, alongside countless Alaskans, have been fighting for throughout my time in Congress. A blocked merger means protecting produce on our shelves, good-paying jobs in our communities, and preservation of our way of life.
- All the way from our Tongass National Forest, this year's Capitol Christmas Tree has made it to DC! Join us for the lighting tonight at 5 pm to see our Alaska-grown tree and all its glory.
