Speaking at a leadership summit in Anchorage and other forums, Murkowski reaffirmed her commitment to speak out against harmful policies, including steep federal cuts and aggressive executive actions, despite the risks. Her remarks reflect broader concerns within the GOP, as some current and former party officials privately express alarm over Trump's leadership style and potential retribution.
