Revenues are not the only benefit that will result from careful development in the non-wilderness 1002 Area. We will also create thousands of good jobs that support families and help put kids through college.

2) "I hope that the United States of America is not so rich that she can afford to let these wildernesses pass by. Or so poor that she cannot afford to keep them." Margaret (Mardy) Murie

plz stop misleading people. Your bill changes the very purpose of the refuge which is the foundation of any environmental review and, makes no action alternatives impossible. Be sensible wildlife would be shoved aside for oil.

They'll open Pebble Mine in Bristol Bay, Alaska. It will have a tailings pond, and......TAILING PONDS ALWAYS FAIL. ALWAYS!

Oil isn't bringing in the revenue it did. You need to balance eco-tourism with oil revenues. People don't come to see oil pipelines, and they won't come to see places and wildlife damaged or destroyed by them We have plenty of those in the lower 48.

I do not think you should drill. There is no way to ensure the wildlife that so many come to Alaska to see will remain in the area. Sad you see this as what Alaskans want

Her ammendment to look for gas in wildlife habitat, destroying the legal concept of refuge, has won. She's thrilled. It took her 40 years to gain the right to destroy polar bear denning habitat.

I hate republicans and your senator is trying to screw your sacred lands

Well, not MY senator. My senator,
@SenatorCantwell, busted her butt today, like all the@EnergyDems except for@Sen_JoeManchin (who's lost in the 19th century) to block the drilling of ANWAR. You care for environment, vote D, except for@Sen_JoeManchinhttps://insideclimatenews.org/news/20102017/arctic-national-wildlife-refuge-oil-drilling-congress-senate-cantwell-collins-markey … -
I hope she loses this one. I spent 40 days up there on a motorcycle and it’s the most beautiful place that deserves preservation

I think her amendment has succeeded. It's now part of the tax bill, no? Now we work to take down this tax bill bc it tries to take down ACA It's not to happen for 4 years, so perhaps just a game. Such a waste of time. + there will be litigation as BLM law conflicts w refugee law.

Collins, McCain, and Murkowski will look like suckers of epic proportions to their constituents if, after opposing the repeal of Obamacare on multiple occasions, they fall for a transparent ploy like wedging a repeal of the individual mandate into a crappy tax bill for the rich.

I'm broken hearted that you are pushing this. You cannot guarantee these things, not in this environment, with this administration. They don't care.

Climate change overrides all other concerns. We must not burn any more fossil fuels if we care at all about our children.

@lisamurkowski says no. When@SenSanders brought up climate change,@lisamurkowski said he was in violation of the Bird Rule. Talk about absurd.
