The LEDC was part of the private-sector representation at the City of Laredo delegation for the State Legislative Trip to Austin, Texas.  

Support was provided by attending and participating in the conversations at several daily meetings with elected officials, agencies, committee chairs, and finally at the Laredo Day Reception. 

The private sector has a keen interest in supporting funding and legislative initiatives for infrastructure, mobility, border security, quality-of-life, and economic development for our binational region so we can continue to improve the prosperity of our community and its residents.  

Private sector attendees for these important meetings also included representatives from the Laredo Chamber of Commerce, LLUSCBA, ALFA, Main Street Laredo, and private business owners.
