The expiration of pandemic aid threatens fiscal instability for many local governments, who have come to rely on these federal funds to plug budget holes and stave off expenditure reductions. This unfolding event may prompt many cities, counties, and school districts to raise taxes and fees in response, thereby exacerbating the existing cost-of-living crisis and making life more difficult for the average person. To better understand today’s challenging fiscal climate, this panel will discuss trends unfolding in Texas’ major population centers, what Texans ought to be telling their local elected officials, and where we go next.

Complimentary lunch will be provided for in-person attendees. You’re also welcome to tune in online via livestream.
