WE PAY. THEY PROFIT.
According to a 2022 study conducted by AutoCase, City and county officials in the Coastal Bend have given tax breaks worth over $730 MILLION to big corporations, while underfunding local public services like road repair, public safety and parks.
The Corpus Christi City Council alone has handed out corporate tax breaks costing local taxpayers nearly $100 million.
The Autocase study also showed that corporate tax breaks supported by local school boards have cost ALL Texas taxpayers more than $1.7 BILLION.
Advocates of corporate tax breaks say they create needed local jobs - but at what cost? Now we know the answer. The Autocase study revealed that the average cost to Coastal Bend taxpayers for just ONE promised job is over $950,000.
ENOUGH OF
THIS INSANITY.
Sign up here to tell the Corpus Christi City Council to stop giving away our money to big corporations!
