2017: What’s Next? Community Engagement Forum Part 2

From Austin-Area Texas State Representatives Eddie Rodriguez, Donna Howard, Celia Israel, and Gina Hinojosa –

Join State Representatives Eddie Rodriguez, Donna Howard, Celia Israel, and Gina Hinojosa for a follow-up to the “2017: What’s Next?” community engagement forum held in January.

The event will begin with a recap of the 85th Legislative Session, including a discussion about attacks on Austin’s local control, school finance reform, the biennial budget, SB 4 (the “sanctuary cities ban”), women’s health and more.

After the legislative update, your local lawmakers will discuss the upcoming “special session” to begin on July 18th with a focus on how the community can resist the misplaced priorities that will dominate the session and your representatives’ plans to advance good public policy.

At least 3 of the items that will be addressed are directly targeted at Austin – we will have to work together to protect our community and preserve the city we know and love.

Questions? Please contact Rep. Eddie Rodriguez’s office at lauren.rangel@house.texas.gov or call 512-463-0674.

Hope to see you on June 22nd! You can RSVP here.
