Lisa Murkowski

He doesn't have the burdens of leadership... And so he is doing what he feels is best.

That’s why today I once again introduced legislation that would officially keep this mountain’s quintessential name, 'Denali.'

This isn't a political issue – Alaskans from every walk of life have long been advocating for this mountain to be recognized by its true name.

In Alaska, it's Denali.

I continue to have concerns about Mr. Kennedy’s views on vaccines and his selective interpretation of scientific studies.

We are a nation of laws, and it is not necessarily for you or I to be the final arbiter here.

You then call into question the legitimacy of your courts ... That's not a recipe for good governance.

You're now having some in the executive branch saying, ‘We don't think the courts should be deciding this. We think that this is our authority.'

You got to claim it back.

So it requires us, in the legislative branch, to then assert our responsibility, which is to not cede the authority.

To have the executive basically come in and dismantle something that was legislatively created — that's outside the bounds of the executive.

I strongly disagree with the President's decision on Denali.

We had a meeting with our staff on the Indian Affairs Committee so — very concerned about some of the tribal programs.

Our nation's tallest mountain, which has been called Denali for thousands of years, must continue to be known by the rightful name bestowed by Alaska's Koyukon Athabascans, who have stewarded the land since time immemorial.

Greenland is not for sale.

I don't think I’ve made any secret of the fact that I'm more of a Ronald Reagan Republican than I am a Trump Republican.

Two Republicans, Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins expected to vote no.

As if in legislative session, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to the immediate consideration of the following bills en bloc: Calendar No. 128, S. 623; Calendar No. 626, S. 4451; Calendar No. 635, S. 4974; Calendar No. 298…

But then I guess it begs the question, is it just that one vaccine or kind of where is it coming from more broadly? So, those are the conversations that I think are important for me to have with him, because I do think that vaccines save…

We’ll see what the process bears.

I think it would be helpful. Everybody's talking about it. It apparently was just about done.

I think they are surviving, and even thriving now. But to me, the long-term trajectory... I am quite worried about that.

I think that overlays over so much of what we are discussing when we are talking about the threats to gaming.

I am confident that Ms. Kunesh will bring the same strong leadership and ethics to the position as she does in her role as ANA commissioner.
