The Friday column: What the Spring Revenue Forecast tells us about the need for oil tax reform DOR's Spring Revenue Forecast continues to show that oil tax reform is needed. This week we explain how.

As we have explained, we do need to reform oil taxes. But total deficits are about $1.5 bn, and reforming oil taxes would raise only about a third. Alaskans have to pay for some of their own govt. The question is: what is the lowest-impact approach? #akleg bgkeithley.substack.com/p/the-friday...

In-state demand is ~5-10% of total #AKLNG volumes. While lowering property taxes would reduce in-state costs, it would also MATERIALLY lower the state's take on the remaining 90-95% of vols. NO analysis of why THIS LEVEL of tax reduction is NECESSARY to attract capital. #akleg

HB 308 lowers the legal limit for driving under the influence (DUI) from 0.08 BAC to 0.04 BAC. 0.04 BAC is the current federal limit for commercial drivers. Utah lowered their limit in 2018 to 0.05 BAC & saw a reduction in traffic fatalities in 2019. AK should do this. #akleg
