"Biden administration"

It’s not clear any of the new management guidance for the National Petroleum Reserve Alaska will survive the transition to the new administration. Its focus is resource development.

The state of Alaska has been the biggest fan of oil and gas drilling in the refuge. It says this lease sale is designed to discourage development.

The decision adds to a closure Obama created. It’s not clear Trump can reverse it without an act of Congress. The oil and gas industry is not active in the area.

Alaska’s refugee community works in health care, child care, and infrastructure across the state — all industries that need workers — but many aren’t sure if they will be able to stay. 

The senator has voted for fewer than 1% of Biden’s nominees to the federal bench. He voted for nearly all of Trump’s.

The major disaster declaration opens up FEMA funding to help pay for the cleanup and repair costs to the city of Ketchikan.

While residents call the road a matter of life and death, environmental advocates say it could threaten vital wildlife habitat.

A land swap would allow for a road through the Izembek National Wildlife Refuge that supporters say King Cove needs; opponents say it would be ecologically ruinous.

The board of the state-owned Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority voted unanimously Wednesday to spend the money to prepare and possibly submit bids in an upcoming oil lease sale in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

The lawsuit aims to void development restrictions in the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska. A new Supreme Court decision may give it a boost.
