Lisa Murkowski: “Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Just to follow up on the comments from the Senator from New Mexico and what you have mentioned…”

I join Alaskans in offering condolences as we learn of the plane crash in Cape Newenham.

Alaska is a cornerstone of American defense; investments like this from the Coast Guard are critical as we work to improve infrastructure on bases across the state to maintain our national security.

Alaska is praying for those on board, their loved ones, and the team at Security Aviation.
