A top Republican super PAC endorsed Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) if she runs for reelection in 2022—after former President Donald Trump and Alaska’s GOP said they would work to primary her.

The Senate Leadership Fund, which is aligned with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), said Murkowski has shown “conservative values” and noted that she voted for Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett. The group added that Murkowski also voted for Trump’s landmark tax bill.
