Proposition 4 – Water infrastructure funding

Proposition 4 is about water infrastructure funding.

Per KUT News:

House Joint Resolution 7 would dedicate a portion of state tax revenues to build and repair water infrastructure.

If approved, the measure would give up to $1 billion a year in sales tax revenue to the Texas Water Fund, starting in 2027 and running for 20 years. While this would fall short of the state’s water infrastructure needs, it would begin to address a serious problem, the measure’s backers argue.

This is one of the things that Texas should be spending money on. It’s a weird quirk of the Texan government that it has to be a constitutional amendment, but here we are.

Recommendation: Yes
