“As successful as this program has proven to be, a champion was needed in Austin to make sure it received the necessary support to continue the fight against those who would threaten our border communities. Working closely with El Paso District Attorney Jaime Esparza and his border colleagues, Representative Dee Margo became that champion in a legislative session where the message in Austin was that we must do more with less.”

AUSTIN- Representative Margo has joint authored House Joint Resolution (HJR) 5 with Representative John Otto, which would increase the amount of revenue the state may deposit into the Economic Stabilization Fund (Rainy Day Fund) to 15 percent, from 10 percent of the total amount deposited into General Revenue.
