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 3, 2022.This week our Top 3 issues are these: 1) we review the Governor's proposed FY23 budget and 10-year fiscal plan released just before the holidays (2:17); 2) we discuss the Carl Marrs' op-ed appearing in the ADN and elsewhere over the holidays, that when read in context thanks the legislature essentially for continuing to insulate those in the Top20% income bracket from the impact of government spending levels by shifting the burden instead to middle & lower income Alaska families (18:19); and 3) we discuss what we will be facing from a fiscal perspective as the COVID-related influx of federal money into Alaska recedes and things return to normal (23:54).
