Demonstrators are gathered in front of the Capitol protest the proposed AKLNG gasline project and the Legislature's tax cut Signs: "No secrets, no scams, no AKLNG"

In 1991 a judge found the AK legislature guilty of "inexcusable trustfulness of the oil industry". The legislature is now being asked by AK LNG developers to blindly give them tax relief. This segment highlights the risks of the current project to AK taxpayers. alaskapublic.org/programs/tal...

This petroleum economist explains why tax relief for the AK LNG project doesn't make this project more likely to happen. Tax relief only makes it more likely that the developer gets a bigger paycheck from the state when it eventually walks away from a non-viable project. www.adn.com/opinions/202...

Check out our new op-ed with our friends at 350Juneau in the Alaska Beacon. As the legislature reconvenes to consider a massive property tax cut for the Alaska LNG project ahead of a July 19 deadline, there are more reasons than ever to doubt developers’ claims. alaskabeacon.com/2026/07/13/a...

Legislators obtained a confidential draft agreement between AGDC + Glenfarne with some alarming new info. It turns out that if Glenfarne fails to develop AKLNG, AK may have to pay to take back control of the project. Turns out secret deals have public consequences! alaskabeacon.com/2026/06/25/c...

To get a sense of how far off Glenfarne’s AK LNG numbers might be, check out this new report from consumer advocacy group Public Citizen looking at projected vs real cost of LNG export terminals across N. America. The pattern is billions in cost overruns. www.citizen.org/article/bill...

Sen. Stedman called AKLNG developers’ $46B cost estimate “complete garbage.” So Glenfarne changed their tune - now estimating up to $54B. The reality is this figure is just more speculation. Tell your legislator: no giveaways for a project based on fiction, not facts. www.adn.com/opinions/202...

"Dunleavy, Glenfarne, AGDC and other Republican politicians claimed a year ago that AK LNG needed no state property tax cut... Were they lying a year ago? Was it an honest mistake? Were they uninformed about market conditions? How could they have been so wrong?" www.dermotcole.com/reportingfro...

In Dillingham, gas prices rose to more than $9 a gallon. In some areas, they’re set to rise to more than $10 a gallon. “This is something that could completely wipe out rural Alaska,” said Nathan Hill, tribal president of the village of Kokhanok. www.northernjournal.com/youd-be-cryi...

FCAC Legislative Analyst Lois Barger raised concerns that lawmakers are being asked to approve significant LNG tax incentives without a current public cost estimate for the project. www.newsminer.com/news/alaska_...

Borough mayors have raised concerns that construction of the proposed AK LNG project will take a toll on local infrastructure and services. Impacts that AK LNG developers and currently proposed tax subsidy legislation haven't addressed. www.adn.com/alaska-news/...

In which @rickirobin.bsky.social paints a very accurate picture via personal archive of the absolute chaos of the last 10+ years of AK LNG promises, missed deadlines and misdeeds. And so it continues with this season's characters, with another round of "and now for something completely different!"

Former Republican state representative Andrew Halcro gives a succinct rundown of Glenfarne CEO Brendan Duval's mind-boggling refusal to answer a single meaningful question about the finances of the AK LNG project in a recent interview with the ADN. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/g...

In the midst of the GVEA rate increase news, we are very glad to have some good candidates to support for the GVEA board who actually have a plan to get us out of this mess. Read more from GVEA candidate Phil Wight here: www.newsminer.com/opinion/comm...

While we're glad to see GVEA moving ahead with Delta Wind, this GVEA rate increase news is rough. We need more locally sourced, affordable energy asap. Delta Wind was the first step, but GVEA still has the opportunity to bring on more. Let's make it happen. www.newsminer.com/news/local_n...

Dunleavy called a special session to push tax breaks for a project that either doesn't need them, or isn't economically viable. No one knows because the numbers remain a secret. Either way, Alaskans lose out. Message your reps: actionnetwork.org/letters/sb280 alaskabeacon.com/2026/05/27/p...

Check out this great 7min podcast episode giving a rundown of Dunleavy's end of session attempt at a pipeline for pension trade. www.buzzsprout.com/1773395/epis...

Hmm.. why does this all sound strangely familiar??

🧵 Oh, right. The House Finance Committee is still holding its hearing on the AKLNG bill. Basically, another overview from the state. 📺: www.ktoo.org/video/gavel/... #akleg

Dunleavy just called a special session to keep trying to force through his highly problematic AK LNG tax cuts. If he's not careful, he might start to look like someone who's just a liiittle too eager to sell out the interests of everyday Alaskans to his O+G buddies. 👀 www.adn.com/business-eco...

News flash: fossil fuels are not sustainable. Why do we have to keep saying that in 2026? Read on for a helpful outline of what legislators have been spending their time on this legislative session when they could have been solving our very real energy crisis. www.adn.com/opinions/202...

Check out this great info from Ben at Inlet Keeper. This is why we're @inletkeeper.bsky.social inletkeeper.org/ak-lng-the-c...

Renewable energy means a sustainable and independent energy future. Renewables also lower energy bills. The war in Iran is making it more clear that fossil fuels are not the future. Alaska is being left behind because of short-sighted leadership decisions. environmentamerica.org/alaska/media...

Dunleavy will veto public employee pension bill unless legislators give tax breaks to AK LNG. This illuminates the real priorities of AK LNG advocates. It's not about creating "good Alaskan jobs," it's about exploiting our resources to make money for the ultra-wealthy. www.adn.com/business-eco...

Secretary of Interior visits Fairbanks & w/industry supporters gather to presume 1.4 mill acre theft upon theft of public lands that are Tribal lands, plus scheme for more. They heard us, again, say NO #NoAmblerRoad @fbxclimateaction.bsky.social #NorthernAKEnviroCenter @nativemvmnt.bsky.social ++

If the state is looking to give gravel away, we could use some on Jones Road after breakup! It's time to stop giving state resources to outside oil and gas companies and invest in Alaskans. www.dermotcole.com/reportingfro...

The legislature is moving at *light speed* trying to push through a massive subsidy bill for the risky AK LNG project before the end of session. However they're still operating in the dark as they have received no financial details on the project. Learn more ⬇️ www.akmemo.com/in-fwere-try...

Our reliance on fossil fuels is especially destructive to rural Alaskans. Locally produced, renewable energy is already working and lowering energy bills in communities across the state. The only thing lacking to make it more widely available is political will. www.dermotcole.com/reportingfro...

Andrew Halcro (state rep 1998-2003, now a blogger and pundit) thinks the legislature is being set up as a scapegoat for Glenfarne's failure, and did a podcast about it. Definitely worth a listen! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/g...

"It’s time for the governor to realize that our resources are vast but our patience is not inexhaustible. At some point, the promise of future riches ceases to justify present-day concessions. That point has been reached." www.newsminer.com/opinion/edit...

Sen. Cathy Giessel, Senate Resources chair, says legislators "have not seen any figures," on the gasline. Meanwhile Sen Wielechowski says "very credible sources" have reported that gas could cost Alaskans 5X current prices of gas from Cook Inlet. alaskabeacon.com/2026/03/13/a...

Even big industry knows renewable energy works in Alaska and is using solar power to save money. Renewables are the best way to meet our energy needs now and into the future, and they're already working across Alaska. www.northernjournal.com/one-of-alask...

"A windfall profits tax is the right response to this crisis, but building clean energy is how we stop having the same crisis over and over again, every few years, whenever the next flashpoint ignites in an oil-rich part of the world." fossilfreememo.substack.com/p/big-oils-w...

When @santaclausalaska.bsky.social says it’s time to close the S Corp tax loophole, you know it’s time to close the S Corp tax loophole. Tell legislators: fund our state services, save the PFD, and make oil and gas corporations pay their fair share. Take action: fbxclimateaction.org/SB227

Dunleavy + Glenfarne are trying to build political pressure for AK LNG with a 90% property tax cut. Glenfarne claims this is necessary for the project to be economic, but that's unclear, since they won't release details on the economics of the project. More here: www.dermotcole.com/reportingfro...

FCAC and Northern Alaska Environmental Center are seeking a Legislative Support Contractor for this year's session. This position will track priority bills for both organizations to support their legislative advocacy work. Check out the RFP at www.fbxclimateaction.org/jobs

Fairly taxing oil companies and closing the S-corp loophole are common sense measures to fix the state budget crisis. These options are also the best for all Alaskans. Tell your legislators to support SB 92! alaskabeacon.com/2026/01/30/r...

The Policy and Politics Working Group was ecstatic to see the introduction of the FNSB energy dashboard debuted last week. It’s clear to see, within the dashboard, that our reliance on fossil fuels over renewable energy is costing our borough and our taxpayers. www.newsminer.com/news/local_n...
