  • June 29, 2021 Dear Texas Congressional Delegation, We
    June 29, 2021 Dear Texas Congressional Delegation, We write in deep appreciation of the enactment of the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). ARPA’s comprehensive approach is already providing an important boost to our pandemic recovery efforts. We are especially appreciative that ARPA provides fiscal assistance to almost every local government in the nation via the Coronavirus Fiscal Recovery Fund. These funds are providing critical assistance to our cities and will continue to do so as we work to overcome the health, economic, and social impacts of the pandemic. As our cities reopen, we are pleased to see many signs of a strong economic recovery and a return to normal life. However, we are deeply concerned about recent proposals to rescind, recapture, or “clawback” the second tranche of the Coronavirus Fiscal Recovery Fund scheduled for allocation next spring. When creating the Coronavirus Fiscal Recovery Fund, Congress and the Administration foresaw that while our economy would see rapid economic growth this summer and fall, many of the pandemic’s social and economic impacts will take more time to fully address. In response, the program is designed to address short-term needs via an immediate allocation of half of the program’s funds while also allowing for long-term recovery via a second allocation next spring and a provision providing us with three years to obligate the funds. The wisdom of this approach is becoming increasingly evident as we work on our recovery plans. Although the pandemic has given us renewed pride in the strength and compassion of our communities, it has also laid bare how much work we have to do, to fully address all of the pandemic’s impacts and build a more resilient society.

Much like other years, we began with prayer and greetings and quickly got to the work at hand, charting the course for another fruitful year. This year, our “road map” was brought into clearer focus as we unveiled the new statement of vision, mission, and core values for the Academy. This collaborative process, begun in April of last year, has refocused the attention of this school community on the person of Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Word. Later in The Messenger you will have the opportunity to enter into that new statement, hopefully allowing it to rekindle a spark of faith in your heart.

    July 16, 2021 The Honorable Charles E. Schumer Majority Leader United States Senate The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Speaker United States House of Representatives The Honorable Mitch McConnell Republican Leader United States Senate The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Republican Leader United States House of Representatives Dear Leader Schumer, Speaker Pelosi, Leader McConnell, and Leader McCarthy: On behalf of the Texas Big City Mayors, we urge you to take immediate action on the Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework announced by President Biden and the group of Republican and Democratic Senators on June 24. This plan will help lead to critical infrastructure investments in Texas communities and across the country. The framework’s $1.2 trillion over eight years will help make local economies more sustainable, resilient, and equitable. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework is vital to the critically needed investments in public transportation; roads; bridges; passenger and freight rail; drinking water and wastewater; clean energy and electrification; pollution cleanup; cyber-attack and extreme weather resiliency; and broadband access. We applaud the bipartisan approach of this framework, and we hope that this bi-partisan support continues in the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives. As bi-partisan Mayors, we are grateful for the $350 billion investment in direct relief for state and local governments through the American Rescue Plan. We look forward to collaborating with you as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework develops further to offer our support and share our knowledge about the needs and priorities of cities. We cannot overstate how important it is that no funding from the previous COVID relief funding for local governments be reprogrammed or redirected toward these infrastructure investments.
