The Biden administration's actions blocking natural resource development in Alaska is equal to 'national security suicide,' Alaska GOP Sen. Dan Sullivan said.
The Biden administration's actions blocking natural resource development in Alaska , including the rejection of a road project that would have opened up millions of acres of wilderness to oil drilling and mineral mining, is equal to "national security suicide," Alaska GOP Sen. Dan Sullivan said Sunday.
"This administration has issued 63 executive orders and executive actions, singularly focused on Alaska to shut our state down," he said. "Now that, of course, hurts my constituents. National resources, energy critical minerals, that's an American strength." Sullivan told CBS that in his nine years in the Senate, he has never seen "such a cynical and dishonest display coming out of any presidency" that occurred with the Alaska announcement.
Sullivan also Sunday talked about the House vote to extend billions of dollars of funding to Ukraine, admitting that he "can't guarantee anything" about whether the funding will remain if former President Donald Trump is elected, but also blamed the situation in Ukraine on Biden's "weakness," including with the withdrawal from Afghanistan.
