Sullivan Statement on 2016 Elections

ANCHORAGE, AK – U.S. Senator Dan Sullivan (R-AK) issued the following statement today on the 2016 elections:

“I want to congratulate President-elect Donald Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence on their historic victory last night. They clearly heard and gave voice to the concerns of millions of our citizens who feel the American dream is slipping away.

“I look forward to working closely with our new president and his administration on issues critical to Alaska and America: energy independence, infrastructure, robust economic growth and jobs, a strong military, and rolling back the Obama administration’s executive orders and overregulation of our economy.

“I also want to congratulate my new and returning Senate colleagues on their hard fought victories. The voters chose to keep the Senate Republican Majority working for the American people. And I want to extend a special congratulations to my friends Lisa Murkowski and Don Young. Alaskans should know they have a strong and united congressional delegation that will continue to fight for Alaska's interests.

“Finally, I would like to reinforce the important and unifying words of President-elect Trump from his speech last night, calling for ‘America to bind the wounds of division, and come together as one united people.’”
