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 March 25, 2024.
This week, our top 3 issues are these: 1) we discuss our take on the House Finance Committee's draft budget (2:11); 2) we explain why we believe the Regulatory Commission of Alaska and the Department of Natural Resources have frontline responsibility for dealing with the Cook Inlet situation and the legislature should only get involved after the agencies have scoped the problem (18:06); and 3) we explain why, if anyone has too much power under the Constitution on fiscal matters, it is the Legislature (39:32).
