Welcome to The Weekly Top 3βββour look at the top 3 things on our mind here at Alaskans for Sustainable Budgetsβββfor the week of February 13, 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 Showβs website weekdays from 6β8am. I join Michael weekly in the first hour of Tuesdayβs show, from 6:25β7am, for a discussion between the two of us about our three issues.
This week our top 3 issues are these: 1) we discuss something Larry Persily and the AK Policy Forum have in commonβββthey both want to ignore the best fiscal alternative for Alaska families (2:04), 2) we explore why campaign finance reform doesnβt seem to be on anyoneβs agenda this legislature (18:02), and 3) we quantify what Rep. Ortizβs K-12 funding bill would mean in terms of increased taxes on Alaska families (25:27).
The segment is at the YouTube clip above. For those that prefer the audio version, it is available both on our Spotify and Soundcloud pages. For this and other complete podcasts of The Michael Dukes Show, go to the Showβs Soundcloud page here.
