The Texas Tribune is holding a series of events across Texas in June that recap the major policy debates of the 2025 legislative session and what new legislation will mean for communities. Join our June 13 conversation in Arlington with Reps. Mitch Little, R-Lewsville, and Chris Turner, D-Grand Prairie, about the state budget, education, property taxes, water, social issues and more. We’ll discuss bills that the Legislature passed, how North Texans will be affected and what they should know going forward.

This live recording of the Tribune’s podcast, TribCast, begins at 12 p.m. Friday, June 13, at University of Texas at Arlington’s The Commons student center, Nueces Room.
