Last season of Game Changer, we did a cool activation with LinkedIn in which they helped us give Jacob a prize of $100,000.
This season, I have a similar opportunity for the right brand willing to give us $50,000+ worth of their product.
Hit me up ASAP if you're interested!
@lisamurkowski you scummy wretch. You sold us out and I hope your career tanks and you’re doomed forever to have an itchy fucking vagina. The people of Alaska deserve better than you
This was one of the hardest votes I have taken during my time in the Senate.
My goal throughout the reconciliation process has been to make a bad bill better for Alaska, and in many ways, we have done that. In addition to extending pro-growth tax cuts, a larger child tax credit, and no tax on tips or overtime, we made a historic investment and modernization of the Coast Guard; enhanced our border security and national defense; funded aviation safety, including AWOS/VWOS systems that will save lives; and provided tax-exempt status for the Community Development Quota Program to help western Alaska communities establish a sustainable economy, among other provisions.
We have advanced new opportunities for resource development in the NPR-A, the Coastal Plain, and Cook Inlet that will help us create jobs and increase the share of revenues our state receives. I also co-led the Senate effort to restore a slightly longer phase-out for wind and solar tax credits while deleting a punitive excise tax targeting them.
Those provisions will benefit our economy, but it is the people of Alaska that I worry about the most, especially when it comes to the potential loss of social safety net programs—Medicaid coverage and SNAP benefits—that our most vulnerable populations rely on.
To address the bill’s shortcomings, we have helped our communities through a $50 billion rural health fund. This will mean hundreds of millions of dollars for Alaska hospitals, community health centers, and other providers. We secured commitments from the CMS Administrator to continue to address longstanding priorities which will directly help Bartlett, Fairbanks Memorial, Central Peninsula, and other hospitals in Alaska.
In the SNAP program, we have added tribal exemptions for work requirements, delayed cost-share penalties to help Alaska get benefits to the people who need them, and included work requirement waivers that align with our Medicaid policies. We also secured commitments from the Secretary of Agriculture to provide additional flexibilities to Alaska for SNAP.
But, let’s not kid ourselves. This has been an awful process—a frantic rush to meet an artificial deadline that has tested every limit of this institution. While we have worked to improve the present bill for Alaska, it is not good enough for the rest of our nation—and we all know it.
My sincere hope is that this is not the final product. This bill needs more work across chambers and is not ready for the President’s desk. We need to work together to get this right.

@SenWhitehouse your insipid monologue during the RFK hearing makes me fucking ashamed to be called a Rhode Islander alongside you. Do something fucking useful with my tax dollars that pay your salary and keep your anti-vaccine college friend out of our government
It’s funny to me that a man who doesn’t want our government to legally recognize trans and enby folks is probably gonna throw a tantrum in the coming days because the rest of the world keeps dead naming a body of water when he signed a paper changing its name.

I’m so fucking thrilled Yellowstone is over. Now we don’t have to sit through anymore seasons of John or Beth failing to take accountability for how their actions and abuses turned Jamie into their enemy. And Kayce’s apathy towards it all.
