We had a wonderful time at our Bi-annual Legislative Breakfast last Friday ?? Thanks to our panelists, Texas State Rep. Toni Rose (TX-110) and Dale Petroskey, President & CEO of the Dallas Regional Chamber, for an insightful discussion. The conversation on key issues like legislative surplus, affordable housing, post-election challenges & opportunities, and workforce development was incredibly engaging.
