We received hundreds of responses which provide my office with valuable guidance on East Anchorage and JBER’s priorities this session. It is clear from your feedback that our neighbors in East Anchorage want the legislature to address the ongoing budget deficit, protect the PFD with a constitutional amendment, and pass meaningful legislation to address the economic harms caused by COVID-19. I've included a few of the results below, but you can see all the survey results here: [link removed] Should the PFD be protected in the State Constitution?  60% Yes 24% No 15% Unsure What should be the Legislature's top priority for 2021? 3.5% Addressing Crime 4.2% Addressing Homelessness 38.0% Addressing the Budget Deficit 16.2% Constitutional Amendment to Protect the PFD 10.4% COVID-19 Economic Relief 4.4% Other 23.4% (blank) How should the State of Alaska address the COVID-19 pandemic? 7.2% Increase travel requirements for people entering Alaska 27.3% Increase unemployment insurance benefits for workers impacted by COVID-19 26.2% Other 10.9% Statewide mask mandate for indoor public places 24.8% Supplemental PFD 3.7% (blank) During 2020 were you or anyone in your household unable to work or became unemployed due to the COVID-19 pandemic? 68.3% No 4.2% Prefer not to answer 13.0% Yes (myself) 13.9% Yes (Someone in household) 0.7% (blank) Should the State eliminate the current per-barrel oil tax credit which has cost Alaska $4.3 Billion in the last seven years and cost us another $3.2 Billion over the next decade? 77% Yes 11% Unsure 11% No Please don't hesitate to give my office a call at 907-465-2435 if you have any questions or concerns-- I'm always happy to talk!
