Join us Jan. 13 in Austin for a conversation with Comptroller Glenn Hegar
Sign up for The Brief, The Texas Tribune’s daily newsletter that keeps readers up to speed on the most essential Texas news.
For 10 years, Glenn Hegar has served as the state’s comptroller, a role that includes being treasurer, check writer, tax collector, procurement officer and revenue estimator.
In January, Hegar will announce the state’s biennial revenue estimate, which will tell state lawmakers how much they’ll have to spend when they write a new two-year budget in 2025. What will be the key takeaways and recommendations from that estimate?
Join The Texas Tribune at 4 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 13 in Austin for a conversation with Hegar on the biennial revenue estimate, how the state is enjoying a surplus for the second straight legislative cycle and where the state should consider allocating its extra money.
Doors will open at 3:30 p.m. at the Tribune’s Studio 919, 919 Congress Ave., Sixth Floor, in Austin, and the hour long conversation will begin at 4 p.m. Parking will not be provided. Street and garage parking as well as ride-sharing are recommended.
