Just got back from Idaho. Many in this Republican state are concerned about tariffs. Met with Governor, Lieutenant Governor, the local Chamber, staff from a US Senator's office and others. We discussed our great trade relationship, but if tariffs are imposed we will retaliate.

Will Alaska's LNG ideas come to anything? Maybe. For sure, I'll definitely be at @PNWER's Economic Leadership Forum in Anchorage on Wednesday to speak about Canada's west coast LNG & other energy molecules.
Trump vows to build long-delayed LNG export project in Alaska 🇺🇸 🚢 However, the project has struggled to move forward due to a few reasons: 👉 No firm commitments from buyers 👉 An 800-mile pipeline required for the project hasn’t been able to reach final investment decision
