So I worked on the FAA reauthorization on the low lead aviation fuel avgas, and Senator Sullivan and I secured a six year extension for Alaska. We were going for ten year extension, but we weren't able to do that. We were able to pull off six years, though. because it's an untested product, and we really need to make sure we have the infrastructure for Abgas at all of our airports. I will be a constant and continuous advocate for affordable energy across Alaska. (30:11–30:17)
