Sen. Lisa Murkowski returned to Alaska for Christmas after a nailbiter of a last-minute deal to keep the government open.

She called the decision to change the name of Denali back to Mount McKinley an 'awful, awful idea' Murkowski said she's concerned about Elon Musk's influence in a way "out of bounds" with the upcoming administration.

Murkowski also hasn't committed to supporting Pete Hegseth , Trump 's pick for defense secretary.

A: “I will say the same thing I said about Denali , I don’t think we need to relitigate [taking control of the Panama Canal ]. That was a treaty arrangement back decades and decades ago .. this is not a situation, I think, where we need to create issues where issues are not there.” “I will tell President Trump when he comes into office, I think [taking control of Greenlad ] is a bad idea, I think we need to take care of the U.S. Arctic first .”.
