Walker and Hoffbeck’s Fiscal Fix | Anchorage News
About this episode
Bill Walker’s back in the race, teaming up with Randy Hoffbeck to tackle Alaska’s decade-long deficit and energy crisis head-on. They’re transparent about fundraising challenges but confident in their grassroots push, leveraging Walker’s near-universal name recognition. Their bold fiscal plan zeroes in on revenue streams—oil/gas, mining, business taxes, and reimagining the Permanent Fund Dividend as the “Alaska Resource Dividend,” splitting resource income evenly between citizens and services for stable, predictable funding. They even propose using ANWR 1002 for an education endowment, all while advocating for a gross—not net—resource tax to simplify compliance and boost development.
