For the second time in one month, Alaska Congressman Nick Begich has been handed the gavel to preside over a session of Congress as Speaker Pro Tempore, substituting in for Speaker Mike Johnson.
Begich has been in office for just 52 days. He spent last week with boots on the ground in Alaska, meeting with people in Juneau, Fairbanks, and Anchorage.
The freshman congressman gave his first annual address to the Alaska Legislature last week and later today is expected to make a speech on the House floor on the topic of space and technology.
Begich has a full schedule, assigned to three committees and eight subcommittees. Begich serves on House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, House Natural Resources Committee, and House Committee on Science, Space and Technology.
Hopefully, Begich can restore some dignity to Alaska, and his family’s legacy.
It must chap the donkey’s rear ends that Nick III is rocking it compared to their darling Mary.
Nice to see some one is doing the job we hired him to do and then some, Unlike some one else we know, You all know who SHE is, Dan is doing better
