purchased alaska from russia. within the agreement there was acknowledgment of the alaska native peoples and their lands but still almost 100 years after the purchase from russia, even following statehood for alaska, the claims settlement that the native people had to their own lands was still in limbo. it got a kick and a turbo charge when oil was discovered on alaska's north slope during worldwide shortage, which created new urgecy to develop -- urgency to develop alaska and to do so by settling the land claims. there were allies in the government that were helpful, but it was truly the alaska people and their determination to themselves and their future generations and their resiliency and brilliance which led to ansca which became the most innovative land settlement certainly in u.s. history and, mr. president, it's no exaggeration to say, probably in the world. 44 million acres of land going to the native people of my state. it brought tremendous occasional, social, political, economic, cultural achievements

so here's the bottom line, here's their view -- shut down alaska, hurt working families in alaska, supposedly to help america's climate goals, but then quietly say drill, baby, drill, in new mexico, with more permits by far than any other state in the country. almost 2,300. if that's not rank hypocrisy, i don't know what is. so i'm going to start asking questions, madam president, about this, and by the way, so should the press. i sure hope our friends in the press think that, hmm, there's something a little strange going on here. clearly there's hypocrisy happening. that happens here occasionally. maybe more than occasionally. is there anything else going on? i hope the press in new mexico ask their senior senator why are you so darn focused on hurting the good people of alaska? because i wouldn't do that. to new mexican oil and gas workers, or new mexican native communities. and finally, madam president, i'm going to ask questions in another area. the biden administration is clearly trying to shut down my state. it's there for everybody to see. everybody back home knows it. but here's the t

alaska is normally _ temperatures? alaska is normally very _ temperatures?mally very cold so for example, in fairbanks, they recorded their third wettest day on record but it was all below freezing so even though they were about 18 c above normal, it was not frozen but precipitation and that has created tremendous hardship. power outages, roof collapses, snow depth, it has really been unprecedented. you snow depth, it has really been unprecedented.— snow depth, it has really been unprecedented. you have record lows and record _ unprecedented. you have record lows and record highs _ unprecedented. you have record lows and record highs within - lows and record highs within alaska at the same time? cheer alaska at the same time? over into the south-eastern - alaska at the same time? over into the south-eastern part - alaska at the same time? 02 into the south—eastern part of the state, they hit about —18 c for the first time in the month of december in over 40 years so a real reversal for what we normally expect. that is the warmest location in the state. they

but as the years progressed, she stayed in alaska, she fell in love with alaska, and her ambitions as a sportswriter changed. but in some ways they got even bigger. she discovered that in her words, quote, the real reward, the real challenge is to find stories that resonate with everyone. and you don't have to be at the superbowl to do that. in fact, beth said she found more interesting, more unique stories to cover in alaska than probably anywhere else. now, we don't have big-time professional sports teams in the great state of alaska, but we do have sports, loads of sports. and just like so much about alaska, we've expanded the meaning of what it means to partake in sports. let's take one very famous sport in alaska, the iditarod, the famous 800-mile sled dog race as one big example. there's also halla skiing, ice climbing, curling, snowboarding. didn't get its start in alaska, but it reached its apex in valdez, for those who participate in that incredible sport. beth is likely one of the few, if only, reporters in the country who reported on this incredible sport in alaska, at 3:00

to alaska indian law.law in alaska, the federal law is 100% different than the lower 48 states. this is advice i give to judges in the ninth circuit. they don't know this. an l.a. lawyer doesn't know this. this week, madam president, we're celebrating the 50th anniversary of congress' passage of the alaska native claims settlement act, what we call in alaska, ancsa, the largest settlement of indigenous land claims certainly in america, probably in the world. really successful act. not perfect. very innovative. but it's been litigated like crazy. we had a case from the ninth circuit several years ago that essentially said ancsa created reservation land throughout the entire state of alaska. that would have changed the history of alaska forever. of course the ninth circuit got it wrong. that case went up to the supreme court, 9-0, the supreme court smacked down the ninth circuit. ancsa didn't do that. that's not what congress intended. you think it would be good for these judges this week if i could sit down

plus, we are having a heat wave in alaska. why the mercury rising there is cause for concern and how it fits in with the climate crisis. stay with us. for there are quality plans for even less. my job doesn't offer health insurance, but with the new law, i found an affordable plan and only pay $47 a month. actually, a friend of mine recommended healthcare.gov and now we're paying less than $60 a month for coverage. i was skeptical at first, but it is real. i'm covered with no monthly payment. new law. lower prices. more people qualify. at healthcare.gov - love you. have a good day, behave yourself. - like she goes to work at three in the afternoon and sometimes gets off at midnight. she works a lot, a whole lot. - we don't get to eat in the early morning. we just wait until we get to the school. so yeah. - right now, here in america, millions of kids like victoria and andre live with hunger. and the need to help them has never been greater. when you join your friends, neighbors, and me to support no kid hungry you'll help hung

the presiding officer: the senator from alaska. mr. sullivan: mr. president, i want to come down to the senate floor and commend a number of senators, but i want to particularly commend the chairman of the armed services committee, senator reed and the ranking member, senator inhofe, and their staff and all the staff on the armed services committee for the exceptional work they have done over the last several months to produce the strong national defense authorization act that just passed in a very strong bipartisan vote here on the floor of the united states senate. that vote, mr. president, was 88-11, and i think it's a prime example of something that i mention a lot back home is that there's a lot more bipartisan work that gets done near the senate that isn't often recognized and there is nothing more important than having senators from both sides of the aisle come together with regard to national defense and supporting our troops and their families. we've been doing that over 60 years in a row where we have passed the national defense authorizat

and our faa in alaska, they do heroic work not just for alaska for the country.e have 586,000 square miles of land and quo stopped close to 2.5 million in airspace. it has been difficult to get accounting for the funding in just the western service area. do you have where you can you provide a feature breakdown of where those costs are and where they are being spent? it's important for us to be able to see comparisons with regard to different regions. if not states, then at least regions. >> i'm aware of the request. i look forward to working with you. it's a federal system. and expenditures are not tracked, normally, by jurisdiction. but i think there is a way to get you the information. >> do you think it's useful information? >> if anyone on the committee, yourself included, thinks it's useful information, we will and ever to provide a form that is useful to you. >> yes, thank you. senator baldwin is next, followed by senator duckworth, who is on remotely -- and unless one of our colleagues appears i'm going to run to vote and thank you, senator baldwin, for t

particular challenges in alaska.ne of the things that you have to pay attention to is looking at how to make the economics of recycling work in rural communities and one of the ways to do that is through hub and spoke systems and that is providing those central locations where it may not be economical for small towns to have their own contracts for recycling pickup, but they can centralize their collection of central place and then it makes economics work much better to have those types of accessibility. there's also, i know alaska does not have a material covering facility in the state which adds to the challenges, but having processing close by is also helpful. and again with the market demand of creating the industries or attracting industries that can use that material as feedstock. and then lastly, i would say investing in curbside, you know, after you take care of those those first two, it's also just investing in the ability to bring carts to communities, making sure that their they've got the right education

alaska led the deployment of adsb, known as next gen, yet the majority of alaska is without coverage in air space that is not classed to require coverage. even in congested areas where there's been some concerns in terms of air space, like in the bethel region. do you think it's time for the faa or congress to revisit options in that area with regard to next gen to provide aircraft owners with the avionics equipment that is needed, particularly in places that i mention that don't have the coverage? >> senator, i want to tell you, safety is certainly a shared priority. and again, i realize the unique aspects of aviation in alaska with the number of aircraft and how communities rely on aviation to survive. and i know that stakeholders, i'm aware they have asked for a second capstone project, as you talked about, and i think the first one was a great success. we can use it as a template. >> it was. >> i would look forward to working with you and the stakeholders to see what that would look like. >> let me ask you one final question. i have been trying to determine an exact comparison of

our faa alaska, they do heroic work, not just for alaska but the country as its planes are flying overo asia. we have 586,000 square miles of land in almost big 2.5 million square miles of airspace. but there has been no accounting. it's been difficult to get accounting for the funding of just the western service area. do you have or can you provide hud for future, a breakdown of where those costs in dollars are being spent? i think it's important for us in congress to be able to see comparisons with regards to different regions, at least regions, if not states? >> bob i am aware of the request and we are working on it and look forward to working with you. obviously, it is a federal system and big expenditures are not tracked normally by jurisdiction. but i think that there is a way that gives you the information. >> do you think it's useful information? i mean i think it would be useful. >> i think if anyone on the committee, yourself included think that it is useful information, we will endeavor to provide the information that is useful to you. >> thank you very much. >> senator bald

kodiak, alaska. it's home of 6000 people. is the largest sodium quarterback island. as you can see is really far north. which means, this time a year, it's usually of course, in the winter, a very cool place. p on sunday -- it hit a record. it's 67 degrees, fahrenheit. that is the warmest temperature ever recorded in december in the entire state of alaska. the kodiak airport, at 65 degrees, will be the previous daily record by 20 degrees. the last record high temperature on december 26 was just, 45 degrees set back in 1984. that was the old record. that's a good basketball teams going to have to point. again not only that, but according to national weather service is the warmest temperature on rather for anytime between october 5th, and april 21st. mean this would've sent monthly reference in month june january february march as well. it's not a fluke of course, of course a climate assessment alaska that a warming twice as quickly as the global average estimate of the 20th century. it's warming faster than any u.s. state. of course climate is not just a problem in al

alaska laid the groundwork for the nationwide deployment of nexgen and yet the majority of alaska is without coverage in airspace that isn't to require coverage even in congested areas where there's been concerns in terms of airspace. do you think it is time for the congress to revisit options in that area with regards to nexgen to provide aircraft with the avionics equipment that is needed particularly in places that i mentioning that don't have the coverage? >> senator, i want to tell you safety is certainly a shared priority and again i realize the unique aspects and the number of aircraft and how the communities rely on aviation to survive and i know the stakeholders, i'm aware they've asked for a second capstone project as you've talked about and i think the first one was a great success to use as a template and i look forward to working with you and the stakeholders to see what that might look like. >> let me ask one final question. i've been trying to determine an exact comparison how safety related infrastructure funding makes it so the alaska region as compared to the rest o

does he say no that is not the way we do politics in alaska?ve to make a calculation about who is more important to his re-election, you know, donald trump or lisa murkowski. >> yeah. and, congressman, how much currency does a trump endorsement mean for republican candidates these days? what is your sense of it, i mean, as you know in virginia in that gubernatorial race, glenn youngkin -- i mean, he had trump's endorsement but he held trump at arm's length, kept him out of the state and he ended up winning. i guess, alaska -- it's going to be very different, i suppose, out there? >> it depends entirely on the -- the -- how the district, itself, is constituted. i know, for example, in virginia's 2nd congressional district, we are basically -- we could elevate a democrat or a republican and i don't think that a trump endorsement would really help a republican candidate in our district. but in some districts, it clearly, the farther you could run to the right and in a deep-red district, get the president's endorsement. that could be the path to no

still to come, we'll be exploring record high temperatures in alaska's kodiak island — and record lowshere in the state. the most ambitious financial and political change ever attempted has got under way with the introduction of the euro. tomorrow in holland they are going to use money we picked up in belgium today and then we will be in france and again it will be the same money. it has got to be the way to go. george harrison, i the former beatle, is recovering in hospital after being stabbed - at his oxfordshire home. a 33—year—old man from liverpool- is being interviewed by police

i'm not sure that it's going to play that well in alaska.st state in the union and certainly has this independent streak. murkowski famously won a write-in candidacy. this is someone who has a strong relationship with alaskans or did prior to january 6th. it's probably safe to assume still does. i'm not sure that dunleavy, it gives him an opportunity to say i'm my own person and i'm not necessarily going to respond to this. but it will be interesting to see if president trump does this sort of play with other candidates moving forward. obviously, trying to recenter his party on the primacy of what he says was a stolen election, which, of course, it wasn't, in 2020 and trying to use whatever leverage he has to get republicans to focus on that. >> it's probably almost a given we can expect that in other trump endorsements. alyssa, we're coming up less than a year from the -- about a year from the insurrection. we know speaker pelosi has outlined how they'll mark it next week. a portion of the day will include testimonials from lawmakers and so

that is the warmest temperature ever recorded in december in the entire state of alaska.kodiak airport, it's 65 degrees, which beat its previous daily record by 20 degrees. the last record high temperature on december 26th was just 45 degrees set in 1984. that was the old record. that's like a basketball team scoring 250 points in a game. not only that, bus according to the national weather service, it's the warmest temperature on record for any time between october 5th and april 21st. meaning this would have set monthly records in november, january, february, march as well. it is not a fluke, of course. according to the fourth national climate assessment, alaska has been warming twice as quickly as the global average since the middle of the 20th century. it's warming faster than any u.s. state. and of course climate change is not just a problem in alaska. 2019 analysis by the ap found new global high temperature records were outpacing new low records by a ratio of 2-1, a finding corroborated by the epa. in a statement on climate you would expect to find an equal number o

air and jetblue have very strong balance sheets as well, given the level of borrowing and alaska air did not have to delete shareholders. they didn't have to raise capital on the equity side we like alaska air as well they have expo sure to hawaii and mexico and coast rica. and then you get united with a pretty heavy debt load as well americans a balance sheet isn't as bad, maybe as it was a year ago, because they paid down a lot of debt and don't have any big maturities until 2023. they're not in a bad position. >> all right, the top pick from helene thank you very much. always good to get your thoughts have a great day and great holiday as well. >> thanks, you too bye, everybody. >>> let's trade around this. maybe tim seymour. we spoke with a number of airline trends in the initial conversation did she shed any light on some of those points you would be looking at with regard to whether or not certain airlines would fare better than others? >> well, on balance sheet, we talked about this on "fast money," the enterprise value of some of the companies like american have changed. thos
