Publicly-Subsidized Convention Center Hotels Risky Business

What? Citizens for a Sound Economy, the national conservative think

tank and grassroots organization is set to announce the findings

of The Source Strategies study showing that Dallas’ proposed

convention center hotel is not financially viable and will not

increase local demand.

The Dallas Taxpayers’ Rights Coalition is a non-partisan

coalition of citizens and local businesses opposed to the City’s

proposal to build a tax-subsidized, 1,200 room hotel adjacent to

the Dallas Convention Center. The Coalition contributed to

Citizens for a Sound Economy’s commissioned feasibility study

for the hotel.
