Welcome to The Weekly Top 3 - our look at the top 3 things on our mind here at Alaskans for Sustainable Budgets - for the week of October 20, 2025.
This week, our top 3 issues are these: 1) following up on recent comments by House Speaker Bryce Edgmon about the situation in western Alaska, we ask whether it could be the final straw that breaks the PFD (2:18); 2) we use a recent op-ed from House Minority Leader Mia Costello to demonstrate that it's not just Ds that push spending without saying how they will pay for it (17:44); and 3) having read the second in his series on the Permanent Fund, we ask whether MustRead Alaska's Jon Faulkner should just start over (37:07).
