Political subdivisions must provide equal funding to opponents of bond measures when they fund communications about those measures.

Texas HB2889 amends the Local Government Code to require political subdivisions to provide equal funding to opponents of bond measures when they fund communications about those measures. This funding must be provided upon request and must be an equal amount of money. The money provided remains public money and is subject to the same restrictions as if it were provided to an officer or employee of a political subdivision. This law aims to ensure fair and honest elections by balancing the communication efforts of both proponents and opponents of bond measures.
