We should start by allowing drilling in Alaska's National Wildlife Refuge. It can provide billions of barrels of recoverable oil and trillions of cubic feet of recoverable natural gas.

There are many outsiders that actively try to halt every natural resource development project in Alaska. Many of these same people have never even been to Alaska, yet they claim to know what's best for us.

If we drill the hell out of everything, including protected public lands and fragile regions like the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, America can emerge as an 'energy superpower.'

I am working for Alaska's best interests.

Now is the time for all Alaskans to come together and reach out with our core message of taking power from the federal government and bringing it back home to the people.

We still have billions of barrels in Alaska that sit untapped. There are abundant reserves offshore in the lower 48.

What I am delivering to Alaska is a future that holds hope and opportunity for jobs, for people in this state.

A changing environment will affect Alaska more than any other state, because of our location. I'm not one though who would attribute it to being man-made.

We can sit between active drilling operations in neighboring countries, complaining that it's too risky to develop our own resources while the world around us does exactly that.
