Dan Sullivan\u2019s (R-Alaska) staffs, who\u2019ve \u201ccalled to share comfort and advice based upon their years of service working for Alaskans in Congress.\u201d Murkowski and Gov. Mike Dunleavy (R) both made their staffs available to help, McParland said, and Sullivan\u2019s chief of staff was on the phone in the early morning offering support.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese moments really stood out amidst a difficult time, reminding us of the community bonds that make Alaska so special. We are thankful to them and to everyone who continues to reach out with sympathy and stories about Buzzy,\u201d the statement read.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>McParland said the office has been briefed by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), which is investigating the crash \u201cas they do with every crash.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe NTSB, who work tirelessly to keep our skies safe, briefed us on the process yesterday. We defer all related questions to their team. Out of respect for the family\u2019s privacy, our office will not be commenting any further on the investigation at this time,\u201d McParland said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Peltola is home in Alaska with her family, and McParland provided an\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Rep_Peltola\/status\/1702370346207219809?s=20\">address<\/a>\u00a0to send condolence notes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>McParland said Alaskans have been supportive in the wake of Eugene Peltola Jr.\u2019s death.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr2_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>\u201cAlaska is a tight-knit state that relies on planes for basic <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">travel<\/a>, and so many Alaskans have felt the impact of an accident like this. That doesn\u2019t make it any less devastating, but it does mean we know how to support one another,\u201d McParland wrote in the statement. \u201cTo everyone who has reached out, from Alaska to D.C. and everywhere in between, thank you. You have made a dark time just a little lighter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Peltola was first elected to Congress in 2022, replacing Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska) who died in office after serving 49 years, becoming the longest-serving Republican in history. Peltola, a Democrat, ran a campaign focused on state-related issues, rather than national partisan causes. She was endorsed by some former members of Young\u2019s staff and by Murkowski.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Copyright 2023 Nexstar <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Media<\/a> Inc.
