This year mayors in the United States and Puerto Rico hosted “PLAY BALL” -themed, youth-focused events in communities from June through August 2017. Play Ball is a joint program from MLB and USA Baseball that focuses on the fun nature of baseball and encourages widespread participation in baseball-related activities. A primary goal of the Play Ball Summer Initiative is to reach kids who don’t normally play baseball. Building on the success of previous years, this year - over 255 mayors pledged to host Play Ball events in cities. Mayors were encouraged to engage youth, citizens, families, and city departments to organize community Play Ball events. From June to August mayors across the country hosted activities such as: baseball/ softball themed clinic days for park and recreation summer camps, playing lunchtime catch games outside of city hall, hosting pitch, hit and run clinics with Little Leagues, showcasing the pastime at the local international festival, as well as hosting baseball themed movie nights with pre-movie baseball drills that engaged families.

The Political Gender Gap in the Top 100 U.S. Cities SEPTEMBER 2016 This report is authored by the staff of the CUNY Institute for State and Local Governance: Jocelyn Drummond, Qian Zhang, and Victoria Lawson ABOUT THE CUNY INSTITUTE FOR STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNANCE The CUNY Institute for State and Local Governance’s mission is to bridge the gap between researchers, practitioners, and policymakers using data and research to help government produce better results, worthy of public investment and trust. Our expertise includes data analysis for a wide array of purposes—including cost-benefit analysis, performance evaluation, and the development of performance indicators—and fiscal management for both short- and long-term planning. ABOUT THE EQUALITY INDICATORS The Equality Indicators measure progress toward achieving greater equality in New York City and other cities in the United States and internationally. This report was made possible by the generous support of the Rockefeller Foundation. We are indebted to Besiki Kutateladze, former ISLG Research Director, for his ideas and guidance.

    February 3, 2021 Honorable Members of the Texas Delegation: As Texas

    February 3, 2021 Honorable Members of the Texas Delegation: As Texas combats the third and largest surge of the COVID-19 pandemic, we once again write to request that Congress provide direct and flexible fiscal assistance to local governments of all sizes. Texas cities need help to continue to address the pandemic and its economic and social impacts and to weather budget shortfalls that we face through no fault of our own. The budget calamity looming over local governments is real and requires extraordinary measures. As the numbers recently released by Comptroller Hegar illustrate, Texas is not immune from this pain. He reports that December 2020 general fund tax revenues were 9.26% below December 2019’s figures. Please note that these numbers do not include delayed property tax revenue losses, the primary source of local government revenue in Texas. Property taxes are always a lagging economic indicator, and we therefore fear that it will be some time before our revenues rebound from the pandemic. All Texas cities are grappling with this devastating reduction in revenue as a result of an unprecedented pandemic. In addition, we are facing this fiscal crisis at the same time we continue to address major public health and public safety challenges and are incurring significant costs to ramp up vaccination efforts and other pandemic prevention and response activities. Cities have been, and will continue to be, the first responders to our pandemic – assistance cannot come at a more necessary time. Texas cities are major employers that provide core local government services to tens of millions of Texans.

  • Governor Abbott Funding Letter

    Governor Abbott Funding Letter

    May 7, 2020 Dear Governor Abbott, First, thank you for your guidance and leadership during this uniquely challenging time. As mayors from cities across Texas, we fully understand the need to revitalize economic opportunity for all Texans while also ensuring we are doing all we can to protect public health by stopping the spread of COVID-19. We stand ready to assist you in this endeavor in every way possible. On March 27th, President Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, which provided over $2 trillion in emergency relief funds to help mitigate the financial harm caused by COVID-19. Included in the funding was $11.24 billion from the Coronavirus Relief Fund (CRF), which was split between the state of Texas and local governments in Texas with populations exceeding 500,000. While the six largest cities in Texas received a direct allocation of this funding from the federal government, no other Texas city has received CRF revenue to assist with disaster response. Needless to say, the virus representing our common enemy at the moment does not acknowledge city boundaries or population distinctions. Every single Texas city has a role to play in the battle for our state’s health and prosperity. To that end, we’ve been encouraged to learn that your office is currently establishing a program for the distribution of a portion of the state’s revenue received from the CRF to cities with populations under 500,000. This funding is critical to support Texas cities and the services they are providing on the front lines of the COVID-19 emergency.
