The legislation, including a constitutional amendment to be submitted to voters in a Nov. 7 election, moved forward with broad bipartisan support. “The fund would be an essential tool in ensuring Texans have access to state park lands for generations to come,” said author Rep. Armando Walle, D-Houston.
A fund that generates interest income and draws private and federal matching money would help the state catch up with its growing population by creating new parks, he said.
