Former Rep Jason Grenn

Proud of my former colleagues who are in Juneau today defending our great state, speaking with heart/facts, and thinking of generations past, present, and future. Our state is better because of your work. Thank you! #akleg

@radiostieren They know their inner workings best and what works for them. Not advocating for anything more than being active whatever that means to them. I just want all Alaskans (from private citizens like me to industry leaders) to be involved during this pivotal moment.

@RepJasonGrenn Be honest. You want it public. Out in the open. So the crowd can see

@radiostieren You may see the need to change our oil Tax structure but I don’t. I think in a crisis that important industries should speak out about impacts. I’ve heard from just about every sector so far and that’s great.

@RepJasonGrenn You're asking them to maintain an unsustainable budget that sooner or later we'll increase taxes them? I mean, have you ever paid attention to members of your former caucus?

@radiostieren Every sector should be voicing their thoughts and sharing what the impacts of the proposed cuts. I’m proud to support the Resource extraction industry, but they shouldn’t be silent right now.

@RepJasonGrenn Your very public argument is that the oil industry should tell government what to do. Have you slept through EVERY ballot measure that made that very claim?

“There is no vision, no hope, no future, no agenda for Alaska, if your only ideology, if your only philosophy, if your only cause is to cut the budget.” —Gov. Wally Hickel Get involved. Contact your legislators and help your friends and family to do the same. #akleg #akgov

Alaskans - there might not be a more important thing you today than contact your elected officials. Reach out by email or phone and share your thoughts on the budget cuts that will impact every person in our great state. Find your Rep/Senator - openstates.org/find_your_legi… #akleg

This is an insightful analysis by @Forbes about our university. The short-term and long-term effects of a 41 percent cut puts our state and the people in it at risk. Read more: bit.ly/2Xm9oVi Photo by the Alaska Climate Research Center

Neighbors - the proposed FY20 budget cuts would devastate our state and negatively impact every person in Alaska. I encourage you to reach out to your Rep/Senator today and share your thoughts. openstates.org/find_your_legi… #akleg

Three questions I keep thinking about: A) what is the share of college bound high schoolers who will stay in Alaska? B) What is their parents' reason for staying if their kids head out of state? C) why is this not a long term threat to growth and economic development?

As an Alaskan who cares about our state, you deserve the opportunity to directly tell policymakers what you see as the priorities and values of our community. @GovDunleavy’s budget proposal would fundamentally change life for many Alaskans. Show up and share your opinion! #AKleg

We achieve the best results for our city and state when you speak up and share your priorities with #akleg. Your voice is important and valuable! I want to encourage you to attend an upcoming Anchorage meeting- February 23: facebook.com/events/2104271… March 2: facebook.com/events/1397819…

Alaska lost 10,000+ jobs from 2015 - 2018. Data from the non-partisan @ISERWeb says a reduction of $1.6 billion could mean another 17,500+ public and private jobs will be gone plus less services, like snow plowers, troopers, teachers, etc. Read more iseralaska.org/static/legacy_… #akleg

"There is no vision, no hope, no future, no agenda for Alaska, if your only ideology, if your only philosophy, if your only cause is to cut the budget." Two-time Gov. Wally Hickel on Page 36 of Malcolm Roberts' "The Wit and Wisdom of Wally Hickel." #akleg

Here’s the presentation from @ISERWeb with more explanation regarding the economic impacts of different options. Each $100 million in cuts means around 1,100 public and private jobs lost. A reduction of $1.6 billion could mean 17,500+ public and private jobs disappear. #akleg

Data from the non-partisan @ISERWeb says for every $100 million in reduction of state spending means around 1,100 public and private jobs lost. A reduction of $1.6 billion could mean 17,500+ public and private jobs disappear plus less services. iseralaska.org/static/legacy_… #akleg

@AndrewHalcro I truly appreciate the kind words Andrew - I admire and respect your courage and integrity during your time in the LEG and afterwards. Thank you! Onward and upward.

The #akleg career of outgoing State Rep. Jason Grenn was marked by hard-work & bipartisanship. @RepJasonGrenn passed significant legislation including the historic ethics reform bill, HB 44. Over the past 2 years, no one smiled more or worked harder. Thanks for serving Alaska.

@cliffgroh Thanks Cliff! That’s Very humbling. I’ve learned so much from you.

@RepJasonGrenn Jason, you are as impressive as ever in both your public role and in your private conversations. All the best.

Officially signing off as the State Representative for District 22. Every day has been a joy and a honor. I hope I fulfilled my goal of serving with integrity and leaving my community better than when we started. Thank you! Some final thoughts. 1/3 #AKLEG

@ErikGunderson4 It was my privilege. Glad I got to be a part of it.

@RepJasonGrenn Thank you for serving your state and community with honor. I hope you continue your public service in other ways.

@RuthGlenn58 I’ve got some ideas :) But for now I get to spend some time with the fam!

@RepJasonGrenn I’m sorry that we have lost your voice in the legislature. I’m sure you will continue to help our community move into the future.
