Last update: an hour agoData Center Push: SpaceX is seeking a tax break for its proposed $24 billion South Texas data center and gas plant, with a Starbase commission vote expected Dec. 9. The move comes as governor-elect Gina Hinojosa has called for a pause on new data center approvals until lawmakers set protections for power, water and local communities. Border Politics: President Trump says he will intervene if Hinojosa ends Texas’ role in border enforcement, setting up a likely clash as Democrats take several key state offices and the Texas House. Household Relief: A proposed $1,500 payment for each Texas household would draw $17 billion from the Rainy Day Fund; the bill still needs legislative approval. Local Business: New Braunfels approved a $750,000, two-year contract for an entrepreneur incubator, despite concerns about overlap with the city’s existing small-business center. Houston Costs: The city expanded utility assistance to cover a new $5 monthly trash fee for eligible low-income residents, seniors and people with disabilities.
