USAA Building Purchase Faces Opposition in Texas House
Rep Jim Nowlin of San Antonio leads a bid to strike 4.6 million dollars from the House appropriations bill for buying and renovating the USAA building. He cites fiscal conservatism and a push to shrink state government growth while noting the plan would take funds from other programs and use a mix of special and federal revenue. Senate opposition looms, with Sen Nelson Wolff calling the proposal silly.
