..Your oily Senator and caucus voted for the dividend cut.... you failed to mention that,.. or doesn`t that little fact fit your spin against the Governor and the House?  You feel that`s a feather in the Senate`s cap?  to ask for cuts they won`t explain from where? or what results will be on us? 
They have also failed to do anything constructive of our major issues, but add to crime and to the deficit by de-funding programs, and wasting more savings, while they collect high perdium and do little to fix our fiscal ship`s leaks. We`ve had enough. The Senate needs to do their jobs and forge a budget that`s realistic and do-able without wasting more of our legacy savings or sovereign funds.  An explainable plan that is easy for the voters to add up and check the voracity of. 
It`s time for the Senate to quit kicking the fiscal can down the road and do their jobs,..and not for oily ALEC-Koch-landers,... but for the voters of Alaska who sent you there to make sensible vettable decisions.
