“If the people of King Cove believe perhaps rightly so that civil disobedience is what it will take to get a level of attention to this, you’re not going to find me standing in the way.”
Sen. Lisa Murkowski talking to reporters after her address to the Alaska state Legislature about King Cove’s fight with the Interior Department to be allowed to build a small gravel road to Cold Bay, about 22 miles away. Read about the road here and here.
I am usually more left leaning moderate but yeah lets just build the damn thing. I got a dozer to donate! The feds are being completely tone deaf on this.
Go girl. Let’s build it.
Couldn’t agree more with her. Especially, since they’re willing to give so much land in exchange for that little road. That’s setting aside the moral imperative of the matter.
God bless Senator Murkowski
