My opponent likes to talk about Alaska’s fisheries. I’m getting things done. I passed the Alaska Salmon Task Force Act to bring Alaskans together, find solutions, and chart a path toward stronger, healthier salmon runs across our state.

Two primary Senate press releases report that the Senate unanimously passed the Alaska Salmon Research Task Force Act, introduced by Senators Sullivan and Murkowski, and an unrated Sullivan post says it was signed into law in 2022.

What we found

Supports. Senate press releases state the Senate unanimously passed the Alaska Salmon Research Task Force Act, legislation introduced by Senators including Dan Sullivan.[1][2]

Supports. A Sullivan-attributed post says the Alaska Salmon Research Task Force Act was signed into law in 2022, consistent with the act having been passed.[5]

Context. The NOAA page confirms the Alaska Salmon Research Task Force was created by an act of Congress, and CBO scores the S. 3429 version of the act.[3][4]

Context. Extraction fidelity: the passage says 'Alaska Salmon Task Force Act' while the official title is 'Alaska Salmon Research Task Force Act'; the referent is the same act, so this is a naming difference rather than a contradiction.[1][2][5]
