Policy experts want dedicated funding for water projects in 2025
Wednesday, January 01, 2025
During the last legislative session in 2023, lawmakers created a new fund to jump-start water supply projects and fix aging water infrastructure across the state.
The law focused on funding a handful of ideas, including marine and brackish water desalination plants and acquiring water from other states. Despite these efforts, water remains a concern for many across the Lone Star State: Current conditions show much of the state is experiencing some level of drought, with the most extreme in far West Texas, near El Paso.
So what do advocates in the water space hope happens at this upcoming legislative session?
