Senator Murkowski participated in the CDS process for FY 2023. In the Consolidated Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2023 which became law in December 2022, Senator Murkowski was able to secure close to $500 million in funding for over 130 projects across the state. She prioritized investments in workforce development, housing, healthcare, water and wastewater infrastructure, community safety, fisheries research, wildfire mitigation and response, working waterfronts, and Alaska’s military members and their families.
