Stop Prop G
Fort Worth is the 13th largest city in the nation, but our strength has always been our "Cowtown" roots-a government of the people, by the people. Proposition G threatens to change that forever.
By doubling City Council salaries to $50,000, we aren't just adjusting for inflation, we are professionalizing a body that was designed for civil-minded residents, not career-level salaries
Stop Prop G
The Council claims a 100% pay raise is needed for "economic diversity." The science says otherwise.
The Council's Claim
"Higher pay helps working-class residents serve."
"It levels the playing field."
What the Research Shows
No Evidence. Peer-reviewed research in the American Political Science Review shows higher pay does not increase blue-collar representation
It raises the barrier. Higher "prizes" attract professionalized, high-spending campaigns that price out regular neighbors
"We need to be like Dallas."
Dallas voters said NO. Even in Dallas, taxpayers rejected further pay raises in 2024. Fort Worth should lead, not follow
