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 September 18, 2023.
This week our top 3 issues are these: 1) we discuss the double standard employed by the ADN editorial board when addressing the issue of "fairness" in various contexts (2:15); 2) we explain the hypocrisy inherent in Sen. Cathy Giessel's call for new legislation to address poverty and food insecurity when she, herself, has been a major contributor to both through her push for PFD cuts (14:49); and 3) with oil prices rising, we discuss how a budget approach used by the Legislature last year can be used this coming year to prevent a spike also in government spending (34:11).
