Gov. Greg Abbott vetoes $50 million in funding to build cyber campus at Port San Antonio


Gov. Greg Abbott this week vetoed a $50 million veto approved by law makers that would have gone towards the development of a military cyber campus at Port San Antonio, the Express-News reports. Rep. Philip Cortez, a San Antonio Democrat who championed the funding, told the daily he was surprised by the veto, which could hold back discussions with the Air Force about relocating the mission headquarters for its cyber operations to the Alamo City. The tech-focused Port San Antonio business park, which is located at a redeveloped Air Force base, submitted a bid earlier this year to house the federal facility.
