We report the detection of highly-ionized gas at z~0 seen in resonant UV and X-ray absorption lines toward the z=0.03 blazar Mkn 421. A total of 13 X-ray and 3 UV lines were measured (or upper limits derived), including three lines in the OVII K-series and K\alpha transitions from neon, carbon, and nitrogen. From the three OVII lines we derive a 2\sigma Doppler parameter constraint of 24
