City of Laredo Proposition 1 - Pediatric Hospital Services Advisory Vote

Laredo city, Texas
My vote power: High

What does this measure do?

This advisory vote asks Laredo to support more hospital care for children and urge Webb County to study ways to help. It creates no service or tax now; future costs would need separate action.

Proposed by: Laredo City Council (Resolution 2026-R-221, proposed by Mayor Victor Treviño)

Treviño is a longtime physician and was Laredo's health authority during the pandemic. He says Laredo has one of the largest child populations in Texas but no pediatric intensive care unit.
