Crapo, Risch Invite Key Member on Energy, Appropriations Committees Murkowski to tour INL on March 21

WASHINGTON D.C. — Idaho Senators Mike Crapo and Jim Risch announced Thursday that a ranking member of the U.S. Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee will tour the Idaho National Laboratory on Friday, March 21.

Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, is also a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee subcommittees that relate to energy and water, homeland security and military construction.

“The expertise and expanse of scientific research and leadership at the Idaho National Lab is something every member of Congress should have the opportunity to see close up,” Crapo said. “Even as we wind down some cleanup activities at the site, new research, military and security missions are being undertaken.”
