Today, Commissioners Cagle and Ramsey took a stand against a budget that would have increased taxes on Harris County residents, continued to under-fund local law enforcement relative to the challenges they face, and permitted more spending on Lina Hidalgo’s pet projects.
Instead of being fiscally prudent and proposing adoption of the no new revenue rate, Hidalgo offered a symbolic tax rate cut that would still equal higher overall taxes for most county residents. Residents in Harris County deserve better than being forced to face higher taxes for a less efficient government and thankfully two members of Commissioners Court stood in the way of that.
