SOCIAL JUSTICE REQUIRES PUBLIC POLICY
WE STRENGTHEN PUBLIC POLICY TO EXPAND OPPORTUNITY AND EQUITY FOR TEXANS OF ALL
BACKGROUNDS.
Learn More
OUR PRIORITIES
We focus on policies that will enable Texans of all backgrounds to thrive.
Today, we prioritize policies that will measurably improve equity in and access
to health care, food security, education, and financial security.
We expose unfair barriers faced by people of color, low-income Texans,
immigrants, women, children, and other disenfranchised populations. We work
alongside community leaders to advance equitable policy solutions. As people and
conditions change and evolve, we adjust the focus of our work to support our
vision for Texas.
MISSED OPPORTUNITIES FOR RESTORATIVE CHANGE
Texans of all backgrounds, regardless of how we look or where we call home, are
worth a fair shot at reaching our full potential. When we provide Texans with
equal access to well-funded public education, affordable health care, and
dignified jobs, we create a state where everyone does well. Unfortunately, the
Texas Legislature failed to take advantage of a huge chance to ensure that we
all prosper together, but all was not lost.
Recap the Regular Session by Policy Area
ANTI-IMMIGRANT POLICIES LEAD TEXAS DOWN DANGEROUS ROAD
Gov. Greg Abbott’s Operation Lone Star and the Texas Legislature’s dangerously
unconstitutional SB 4 have turned the idyllic beauty of the Texas Borderlands
into a wire-clad warzone. With the help of the Texas Legislature, Gov. Abbott is
defying U.S. Supreme court precedent and usurping federal authority to create
and enforce immigration law.

STATE OF WORKING TEXANS 2024
This series provides fact-based research and policy analysis to underscore that
people are our state’s greatest resource. SOWT will highlight how and where
Texas’ most powerful elected officials keep us from the shared economic
prosperity that our labor creates. This series will examine Texas’ growing
disparities despite the state’s economic prosperity and, in turn, propose policy
solutions aimed at equitable distribution of the state’s economic resources for
a broader, multiracial middle class.
Explore the Series
WHAT’S HAPPENING WITH TEXAS' ELIGIBILITY SYSTEM?
An effective eligibility and enrollment system forms the foundation for meeting
food and health care needs of eligible, low-income Texans. Its most basic
function is to process eligibility accurately and without delay. Texas’
crisis-ridden system is doing neither. Millions of Texans, mostly children of
color in low-income families, are at risk of losing their health insurance
despite remaining eligible for Medicaid and are also unable to get their SNAP
applications processed on time.

HEALTH CARE
Access to quality, affordable health care for every Texan is at the core of our
mission. We work to protect and improve access to high-quality public and
private insurance, mental health care, and basic health needs for Texans of all
backgrounds.
Learn More
FOOD SECURITY
Texas is one of the hungriest states in the nation, but public policy can help
change that. We are dedicated to achieving food security for every Texan.
Learn More
EDUCATION
One of the biggest challenges facing Texas families is the lack of career and
college readiness for students. To increase post-secondary access and success,
Texas must build a more durable pipeline across our educational and workforce
systems to prepare Texans for the jobs of today and tomorrow.
Learn More
JOBS & FINANCIAL SECURITY
Many Texans experience poverty because their work pays too little to raise a
family out of poverty. To ensure economic prosperity, Texas public policy must
support workers, make employers pay livable wages, and prioritize health and
wellness over profit alone.
Learn More
BUDGET & TAXES
Texas needs a budget and tax system that is equitable, adequate, and responsive
to our state’s growing population and needs. The ability to invest in public
services that will build a more prosperous future for every Texan relies on the
ability of our tax system to support those services.
Learn More
EQUITY & INEQUALITY
The wealth gaps in Texas keep poverty rates high, especially when the state
doesn’t prioritize assistance to Texans in poverty or increasing equity for
Texans of all backgrounds. Our public policies must guarantee equitable access
to services that allow us all to thrive.

HERE’S WHERE YOU COME IN
TAKE ACTION
Make your voice heard by showing up at the State Capitol or City Hall equipped

topics. If you’re connected to your community, encourage your network to learn

TESTIMONIALS
For 35 years, the Center for Public Policy Priorities has used data and policy
analysis to strengthen public policy and expand opportunity for Texans. Their
name is changing to Every Texan, but their mission remains the same! I support
Every Texan and you should, too!
Eddie RodriguezTexas State Representative
For 35 years, CPPP has been Texas' most effective public policy instrument for
working families and equitable health care. Texans have always been proud of the
Texas brand. With that in mind, CPPP is rightly changing their brand to 'Every
Texan,' guided by data and their passion for equity and justice.

Every Texan is an inclusive name and an inspiring brand, welcoming everyone in
our state to help make this a place where people from all backgrounds can
thrive. I congratulate Every Texan on this big step forward, embracing their
social justice roots while continuing to use data and policy expertise to fight
for equity.
