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 January 10, 2022.This week our Top 3 issues are these: 1) we explain our concerns about the Governor's proposal this budget to raise revenues through permanent PFD cuts, without first exploring even obvious revenue alternatives the Administration itself has raised (2:05); 2) we focus on a specific concern raised by former Governor Frank Murkowski hi-lited by the recent termination of Permanent Fund Corporation head Angela Rodell (25:22); and 3) we discuss the positive outlook for current oil production levels outlined in a recent piece by Tim Bradner (32:37).

We join Michael weekly in the first hour of Tuesday’s show, from 6:25–7am, for a discussion between the two of us about our three issues.
