Texans can thank the reopening of many businesses ([link removed] ) for that - though there are still many businesses hurting and the shutdowns must be lifted, we are headed back in the right direction. Read more about how the Texas economy is doing in the Ginn Economic Brief!

This is particularly important because out of the five bond propositions from Dallas ISD - totaling $3.7 billion - three were voted down ([link removed] ) . Now Texans won't be forced to accept omnibus ballot propositions. They will be able to choose what they want to support and what they don't. Read more below
