Welcome to The Weekly Top 3 — our look at the top 3 things on our mind this week — for the week of January 7, 2019.
This week our Top 3 issues are these: (1) our thoughts on the coming budget debate as the #akleg session approaches (at 2:33), (2) HB 331 -- the oil tax credit bonding bill -- survived its first court challenge, but we discuss why we nevertheless believe the upcoming #akleg should kill it (19:55), and (3) what's being lost in the rhetoric over the "wall": the fiscal implications of the partial federal shutdown (29:13).
