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 June 17, 2024.
This week, our top 3 issues are these: 1) we explain why, on fiscal matters, "bipartisanship" generally is becoming a dirty word at both the federal and state levels (2:13); 2) we discuss the concept of revenue design and why one of the objectives of the proposed Anchorage sales tax is actually a positive from the perspective of fiscal policy (20:09); and 3) we explain why a quote from one of the stories on Cook Inlet gas summarizes the issue well: "Someone should probably do something," and discuss who that someone should be and what they should be doing. (37:09).
