-Caveat Lector- Alaska Gov. Murkowski Comments on West Coast Benefit from ANWR
The Governor of Alaska, Frank Murkowski released a article to the people of the Northwest published in the Seattle Times today on how Alaskan oil including future reserves of oil and gas in ANWR have and will benefit their states. The article titled, ANWR exploration: energy for the west coast, illustrates very well how for over 30 years the Northwest, in particular Seattle, has benefited from the transportation of oil as well as oil industry goods and services to Alaska. Governor Murkowski has been a champion of the push for Alaskan energy development during his 22 years in the U.S. Senate prior to becoming Alaskas Governor. The article is more poignant however, in that Governor Murkowski was originally from Seattle. In the past 28 years the Alaskan oil industry has spent over $3,761,850,000 in Washington State, and generated 12,000 full time jobs there. Oregon has benefited with over 7,000 jobs and $468,470,000 worth of business. The Cherry Point refinery near Seattle receives and processes approximately of Alaskas oil. The irony of the Governors remarks is that despite that the Washington State Legislature in the past passed an official resolution supporting the opening of ANWR and that the Seattle and Tacoma Chambers of Commerce as well as a vast majority of the Seattle/Tacoma business community greatly favor exploration of the ANWR Coastal Plain, Washingtons Senator Cantwell has been a major ANWR foe and regularly tries to prevent ANWR legislation to pass in Congress. This is a hugely hypocritical stance considering her peoples and state official support and benefit from Alaskan oil.
