Funding the Future: FWISD's $1.5B bond proposal and the possibility of a $5B EV factory

In a week focused on masks in FWISD, EJ and Jimmy look to focus on some major stories that made slightly smaller headlines. First, they talk about two companies announcing potential relocation of major manufacturing facilities. Then, we start trying to unpack all of the budget decisions coming up, starting with the city budget for FY2022, and followed by the $809 million coming to Tarrant County through the American Rescue Act.

Finally, they break down the proposed $1.5 billion bond program for FWISD that'll be on the November 2 ballot, and talk about how the current uncertainty around masks and enrollment in school could affect voting on the bond.
