Sheraton Hotel at the Capitol

State lawmakers are staring at an $18 to $21 billion budget shortfall and TAB needs YOUR leadership to fight potential tax increases on broadcasters, as well as continuing efforts to gut open government laws. 

Policy experts and legislative leaders will outline the challenges, and delegates will meet with their local lawmakers over lunch to discuss concerns.

Jackson Walker LLP, TAB?s general counsel, is sponsoring the program which includes morning issue briefings and presentations by key statewide elected officials.

Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst will present the closing keynote address in the afternoon.
