Constitutional amendment providing for the creation of the permanent technical institution infrastructure fund and the available workforce education fund
Plain-English Summary
Texas Proposition 1 on the November ballot proposes creating two new funds: the permanent technical institution infrastructure fund and the available workforce education fund. These funds would support the capital needs of educational programs offered by the Texas State Technical College System. The TSTC system has 11 campuses across Texas that offer certifications or degrees in various trades.
What each outcome does
If Proposition 1 passes, special funding will be provided to support trade school efforts and the Texas State Technical College System, potentially creating higher-paying opportunities for workers in trades.
If Proposition 1 fails, the proposed permanent technical institution infrastructure fund and available workforce education fund will not be created, and the Texas State Technical College System will not receive this specific new source of funding for capital needs.
