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 April 8, 2024.

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 discuss the operating budget as it passed from House Finance, including how the FY25 PFD is being jerry-rigged by taking money from FY24 (2:09); 2) we look at a timeline for Cook Inlet gas supply to explain why concerns about the impact of LNG imports are being overblown (19:49); and 3) we discuss an upcoming debate hosted by Alaska Common Ground on the PFD in which we and others are participating (38:22).
