Youre on with blake and melanie. Caller hi, good morning. The issue that i have is photo 2r56k tickets. I have a photo traffic ticket and i failed to appear, and then they suspended my license and jeopardized my livelihood to get to work. And both tickets are unconstitutional because theres no officer that can vouch in court that you violated a traffic violation. So if i can get you to explain how a City Government can coordinate with the dmv to suspend my license for a traffic ticket thats unconstitutional, because no officers were there present when the photo was taken. You want to take a photo traffic ticket . This is a great story to bring up we have heard this from a lot of the people we talked to they go into the dmv and they cant get their license renewed because they have these outstanding tickets, a lot of people we talk to, they see the picture that was taken and one guy named john wright said that he was sent a picture of a bmw, and said that he ran some toll or got a parkin
Budget to help the people of king cove . What have you actually done over these past 14 months to fulfill the promise that you made, because you said that you have concluded that other methods of transport remain that could be improved to meet community needs. What has been done to help the people . Can i have a few minutes . Please. As we talked, senator, we have engaged conversations with corps of engineers about alternatives. Negotiating an mlu with them. It is i think approximately 40 miles between king cove and cold bay, if you drive there. Its ten miles through the refuge. You already have most of that road built. And as i have spoken with people in the community when you and i were both there it is very difficult in harsh weather conditions to move around that territory, period. So i have worked with the corps of engineers. Were continuing to do that to look at alternatives, such as Helicopter Services between cold bay and the end of the road that is built as you referenced, bec
Opportunities alaska has with regard to resource production, you have enabled an unprecedented attack on our ability to responsibly bring these resources to market. The president has withdrawn over 22 million more acres of alaska from Energy Production just in recent weeks, and that has occurred on top of many other restrictions and regulations being imposed on us. Its occurred despite the Tremendous Energy opportunity and potential in those areas. Despite our no more clause. Despite the pressing need to refill our pipeline. And despite strong opposition from most alaskans. The map that i have behind this is one my colleagues are going to become familiar with because im going to be pointing it out quite frequently. The colors on the map represent those areas that are withdrawn from any Development Opportunity whatsoever. Some are, in fact, proposed critical habitat areas, so they are not fully withdrawn at this point in time. But we have the anwr new wilderness proposal. The president
Leaders and it was very clear that there is no daylight amongst the elected leaders in terms of how they are viewing these decisions coming out of the administration. So i just want to make again very clearly enunciate very clearly that i oppose this administrations decision on anwr i oppose its decision offshore, i oppose its costly restricts and endless decisions within the mpra and oppose what its doing to our plasser miners and Timber Industry and many other Resource Producers ready to provide good jobs to hardworking alaskans. The state of alaska was actively ignored. The north slope bureau, alaska native corporations and many alaskans all of whom asked for an oil and gas alternative in interiors anwr plan by claiming that it requires an act of Congress Even though an act of wilderness requires the very same. The actions from this administration seem destined to shut down our transAlaska Pipeline weakening our economy, forcing our state to make steep budget cuts and really violati
Violence because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time and murdered. That investigation may be ongoing, but we already know the answer to the fundamental question can we do something to reduce gun violence . The answer is yes, in his name, in the name of the 30,000 people who have perished along with him from gun violence, needless and senseless deaths that are all our responsibility. I respect the Second Amendment, as i know the presiding officer does. I respect the right of people under the constitution and the Second Amendment to own and possess firearms and use them for hunting, for recreation, target practice. I will continue to honor the memory of Javier Martinez and the lives and aspirations and hopes of the students at Common Ground and work not only to build that garden but to make the neighborhood around it safer and the Community Around it a more nurturing and better mace to live. I have made no secret of the fact that i believe this body has a responsibility to act, a
