		State eyes Alaska Permanent Fund earnings draw without plan  
		Lawmakers have proposed drawing money from the Alaska Permanent Fund 
		earnings to pay for state government for the first time. But as the 
		Legislature… 
		
		Ever since a few years after the Permanent Fund was approved by voters 
		in 1976, its earnings have been used for two purposes: to grow the fund, 
		and for Permanent Fund dividends. But with the state bringing roughly 40 
		cents in taxes, fees and oil royalties for every dollar it spends, both 
		the House and Senate have passed bills to draw from earnings to cover 
		the budget gap. Governor Walker and the House is playing the shell game with Alaskans. Don't fall for their trap! Now we are going to take half the PFD again and say its for education. They are doing this to push their taxes through! House voted to take all Savings, PFD Reserves, gave government a huge raise that drained savings to nothing with their budget they passed. Can Alaskans be that stupid to think what they did by saying they are giving us a full PFD is a good deal? Second Biggest budget in Alaska's history. No savings left, still wanting all their new taxes and by doing what they did. They would guarantee those taxes in the next budget. All focus is on the PFD and not on the futures of all ALASKANS! They did it so they will be reelected next year! 
		Don't fall for the trap! Cut the budget, cut government size, stay out 
		of the PFD, NO NEW TAXES Politadick  |

		  Alaska  Video  Representative

		Conf committee on operating budget was cancelled at 10 then last minute 
		started at about 1230 pm. At a high level what Just happened k12 
		Education was fully funded (par for course ), dividends were put to 1100 
		this year and HSS funding was restored.  A personal success the "supplemental" operating budget, that I have fought hard to get out of the Capital budget, was removed today and put into the Operating budget where it belongs !!!! However, they are per se adding about 200 million fund change for the future operating supplementals. Finally, thanks to the Republican push back much less of the budget will be funded with permanent fund Earning Reserves, which would have cost hundreds of millions more per year. In addition the oil and gas tax credit program (that LeDoux Tuck Edgemon and others voted for 6-8 years ago) was minimally funded and eliminated I believe by Jan 2018 or 19. Right now many are jockeying to get 8 Republicans to vote for the massive budget with the 22 Democrat Coalition for CBR (constitutional budget reserves) draw which requires 3/4 vote.

		Compromise to avoid state shutdown could happen soon  State 
		lawmakers are working on a budget compromise to avoid a government 
		shutdown that could be completed as soon as tonight. 
		
		The outline of an agreement became clear Thursday afternoon. The primary 
		source of school funding would not be reduced. Alaska Permanent Fund 
		dividends would be cut 
		in half to $1,100. Future state purchases of oil and gas tax credits 
		would end. And the $4.2 billion budget includes a cut in state 
		government spending of $129 million, or 3 percent. Governor Walker and the House is playing the shell game with Alaskans. Don't fall for their trap!
