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 February 24, 2025.
This week, our top 3 issues are these: 1) we discuss the Senate Finance Committee’s proposed SB109, which, if enacted, would be the largest permanent individual tax increase in Alaska’s history (2:09); 2) we explain why the source of the state’s fiscal problem isn’t either too much spending or too little revenue, it’s that we are using the wrong revenue structure (19:59); and 3) we explain why, if you look, you can see the forces behind the state’s next big spending wave starting to form (41:53).
