from The Weekly Top 3 Hosted by Alaskans for Sustainable Budgets

Welcome to The Weekly Top 3 - our look at the top 3 things on our mind this week - for the week of May 3, 2021.This week our Top 3 issues are these : 1) the current, confused budget situation in the House (2:00); 2) why we believe Reps Rasmussen & Merrick dissemble when they say they oppose an "income tax" (they just oppose one that requires the Top20% to contribute, they don't mind one that mostly burdens middle & lower income Alaska families) (18:47); and 3) why the argument advanced in a recent op-ed by Permanent Fund Corporation head Angela Rodell is disingenuous (25:40). 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. 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.
