Join us in Austin Monday, January 28 to hear how Texas legislators are proposing to tackle the state's water issues.

Please join us in Austin tonight, Monday, January 28th, for a panel examining water issues in the state and some of the solutions that the legislature is considering. The panel will feature members of the legislature, including State Senator Glenn Hegar and State Representatives Drew Darby and Lyle Larson. It will be free and open to the public.

Some of the issues on tap: how to fund new water projects; efforts to fund and encourage conservation; easing conflicts between cities and farmers; and reducing the amount of water used for fracking. This is an opportunity for you to hear about some of the solutions for a growing, thirsty state directly from legislators.

The panel will run for one hour and include an audience Q&A.

We’ll be meeting at the Cactus Cafe on the University of Texas at Austin campus. You can RSVP on Facebook, or just show up tonight. Doors open at 5:30 p.m.
