Lisa Murkowski: “Thank you, Madam Chair.”

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

I would expect this from terrorists and dictators, but not here in America.

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.

Congress needs to save ourselves.
