The Weekly Top 3 (11.6.2023)
The @AKHCoalition is lying to Alaskans, why the current PF Bd should be sunset, the #AKmedia is getting closer to the real #AKfiscal story & our take on @GovDunleavy's performance
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 November 6, 2023.
The Weekly Top 3 is a regular weekly segment on The Michael Dukes Show. The Show broadcasts on Facebook and YouTubeLive as well as via streaming audio from the Show’s website weekdays from 6–8am. I join Michael weekly in the first hour of Tuesday’s show, from 6:10–7am, for a discussion between the two of us about our three issues.
This week our top 3 issues are these: 1) we explain how the Alaska House Coalition is lying to Alaskans (2:14); 2) we discuss why, after last week’s developments, we’re even more convinced the current Permanent Fund Board should be sunset and replaced (19:10); and 3) we explain why we believe Alaska’s reporters are getting close to the real fiscal story, but aren’t there yet (37:34).
And as a bonus at the end, Michael and I discuss Governor Dunleavy’s job performance and, then, at this point, where we see next year’s legislative session heading (45:29).
The segment is at the YouTube clip above. For those who prefer the audio version, it is available on our Spotify and Soundcloud pages. Go to the Show’s Soundcloud page here for this and other complete podcasts of The Michael Dukes Show.
