This week we are excited to be recording from the Texas Capitol office of Rep Trey Martinez-Fischer. Scott talks with his Senior Budget Analyst, Eva Deluna Castro—many Weekly Witness listeners will know Eva from her years with the Center for Public Policy Priorities, now Every Texan. Eva is one of Texas' most respected state budget experts, and today she's sharing her take as we move into the home stretch of passing a state budget. Texas had a record budget surplus coming into the legislative session, and with it an opportunity to make a clear statement about our priorities as a state. We'll cut through the news and get the real scoop from Eva to see how they are doing so far.
