I had a productive meeting with Kirstjen Nielsen, President Trump's nominee to head DHS, said Senator Sullivan. Kirstjen's experience and leadership working at DHS gives her the familiarity needed to run such an important agency.During our visit, we discussed the strategic national security importance of adding more icebreakers to a lackluster fleet, and I also stressed the need for DHS to focus on improving and strengthening the H-2B visa process, a program that supports Alaska's seasonal labor workforce and is vital to the Alaskan seafood industry. I look forward to voting to approve her confirmation and to working with her in the future. ### Print Email Tweet Next Article Previous Article | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
