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 November 3, 2025.
This week, our top 3 issues are these: 1) we discuss a stunner: how Alaska takes more as a share of income from its middle & lower-income families than California takes under its income tax from its billionaires (2:14); 2) we explain why the Task Force on Education Funding needs to address how they actually intend to FUND the increased spending they want (19:49); and 3) we examine the irony of Alaska's SNAP funding "crisis," how many of the same legislators who are now outraged about the potential loss of funds themselves voted to take even more from the very same recipients in the last budget (38:03).
