Alaska State Legislature supports rapid advancement and construction of the Alaska Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Project, a pipeline and export facility connecting North Slope gas to global markets

Resolution urges Congress, President Trump, Secretary of the Interior Douglas Burgum, Department of Energy, and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to expedite approvals and ensure federal partnership

Project is the only federally authorized LNG export facility on the U.S. Pacific Coast, providing a direct energy corridor to allies that avoids canal chokepoints and contested waters

Expected to create thousands of high-paying jobs for Alaska residents and generate long-term state and local revenue

References President Trump's Executive Order "Unleashing Alaska's Extraordinary Resource Potential" signed on his first day in office and his March 6, 2025 address to Congress as evidence of federal support
