The Blueprint for an Ideal Texas City

Texas’ explosive population growth is putting immense pressure on the state’s largest cities and metropolitan areas. If you’re one of the nine out of 10 Texans who live in or visit these cities, you’ve likely already dealt firsthand with some of the challenges. Nearly 200 researchers and business leaders produced a plan to build better cities in the future. In this episode of Y’all-itics, the Jasons are joined by one of the lead researchers for the “Texas Metropolitan Blueprint” who explains why they took it to lawmakers in Austin and what’s at stake if those same lawmakers do nothing.
