Episode Details

Alaska lawmakers are racing to finalize a massive LNG project deal, with a draft compromise bill now on the table—but tensions flare over a corporate income tax the governor calls a “poison pill.” Glenfarne, the developer with most of the project, demands huge tax breaks to secure investor backing. The six-member conference committee is merging conflicting versions under tight deadlines, with a July 16th vote looming.

With the governor threatening a veto and lawmakers split between speed and caution, this deal could make or break Alaska’s energy future.
