I am a member of three different organizations in Laredo. The Laredo Cultural District, Laredo Center for the Arts, and the LTGI, Laredo Theater Guild International. As such, I am very interested in the development of the arts in Laredo, and I have been a part of it for many, many years. My question to all of you is, how is it that we can reduce the budget that is actually helping these nonprofit organizations to help the culture and arts in Laredo to develop?
