Texas Senate approves lean $217.7B two year budget
The Texas Senate unanimously passed a lean 217.7 billion budget for the next two years, trimming funding for universities while boosting border security and child protection. It adds more for the Alamo shrine but falls short of restoring broader redevelopment, and heads to the House for its version. The plan totals 106.3 billion in state general revenue, down from the current period despite population growth.
