Alaska’s leaders praised the federal decision to reinstate permits for the Ambler Access Road, marking a major milestone for jobs, energy independence, and responsible resource development.

Governor Mike Dunleavy said this decision will “unleash development opportunities, create new jobs for Alaskans, and secure access to strategic minerals.”

Senator Dan Sullivan called it “great news for Alaska, for jobs, for American national security, and for reducing our dependence on China.”

Senator Lisa Murkowski thanked President Trump for “getting the Ambler Project back on track after it was derailed by politics.”

Representative Nick Begich III called it “a historic day for Alaska’s self-determination — Alaska First is America First.”

This strong show of support from Alaska’s leadership highlights the growing momentum behind the Ambler Access Road, a vital project for the region’s future and for companies like Valhalla Metals advancing critical mineral development in the Ambler Mining District.
