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 30, 2023.
This week our top 3 issues are these: 1) reflecting on the Administration’s recent proposals to subsidize Cook Inlet gas, we ask whether Alaska Republicans have given up on the free market (2:06); 2) we examine yet another pitch by Alaska Democrats for increased state spending without also addressing the issue of who they propose to pay for it (17:35); and 3) we look at some good news about a state push that potentially would have added even more pressure for increased K-12 funding (36:24). In addition, toward the end (43:50), we circle back for some continued discussion on the first two topics.
